Founders Story
Over the last decade, Erin has been deeply involved with organizations like Girls Inc. and Empowher, and has also coached volleyball at John Muir High School. During this time, she observed recurring gaps in emotional intelligence among young people, including challenges in communication, handling uncomfortable conversations, navigating relationship difficulties, and dealing with tough emotions and situations.

Erin recognized a fundamental need for foundational emotional intelligence education—a set of skills that we all need yet are rarely taught explicitly. Observing that individuals often struggle to manage their emotions due to a lack of understanding and tools, She saw the potential for a program that could empower people to not only manage but thrive through their emotional landscapes.
Inner Matters was born from Erin’s realization that emotional intelligence should not be a privilege but a universal tool accessible to everyone. The program is designed not as therapy, but as an educational journey that encourages self-exploration within a community setting. It’s about learning to navigate personal emotions and understanding that while there is no one “right” way to handle feelings, discovering an individual path can be transformative.
Erin is certified in Emotional Intelligence and has developed a curriculum that incorporates science-based exercises from the fields of Emotional Intelligence and Positive Psychology. She ensures the integrity and effectiveness of the program through ongoing collaboration with a board of licensed psychologists and family therapists.
