Welcome to the home of The Balanced Parent Podcast!

Parenting is often lived in the extremes. It's either Great Joy or chaotic overwhelmed. In one moment you’re nailing it and the next you're losing your cool I want to help you find your way to the messy middle, to a place of balance. You see, balance is a verb not a state of being. it is a thing you do not a thing you are. it is an action a process a series of micro-corrections each and every day to keep ourselves feeling centered. We are never truly balanced. We are engaged in the process of balancing.

Hello, I’m Dr. Laura Froyen and this is the Balanced Parent podcast, where overwhelmed stressed out and disconnected parents go to find tools, mindset shifts and practices to help them stop yelling at the people they love and start connecting on a deeper level, all delivered with heaping doses of grace and compassion. Join me in conversations that will help you get clear on your goals and values and start showing up in your parenting, your relationships, YOUR LIFE, with open-hearted authenticity and balance. Let’s go!

If you're parenting children of different ages, I could imagine how difficult it must have been for you to balance each of their needs. Each age brings it's own challenges, so how do we support everyone in a way that is developmentally appropriate for each individual kids??

So, how do you balance your children's emotional needs at various stages of life?

How do you help each of your children with their big feelings, without leaving anyone feeling left out or left behind?

In this week's podcast episode, I am doing something new and I am really excited to welcome two wonderful beautiful conscious parents Nikki and Brian on to the podcast for a live coaching session. They have a lovely blended family of teenagers and a five-year-old. And they are struggling right now to balance the boundaries and emotional needs of all their kids.

So, join me as I do an on-air coaching with Nikki and Brian.

I teach them strategies for helping kids with their feelings at ANY age, and I know this will be so helpful for them!

You can also help them build their self-regulation through fun games they will love. DOWNLOAD THE GAME HERE.
