The Balanced Parent Podcast Laura Froyen, PhD

Parenting is often lived in the extremes. It’s either great joy or chaotic overwhelm. 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’s an action, a process, a series of micro-corrections that we make, 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 Balancing Parenting 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 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.

Compassionate advice
Dr. Laura is real, compassionate and deeply respectful for our experiences as parents as well as our children’s. I adore her as a person as well as an expert!
Laura’s style is the gentleness we need as adults
I so appreciate each of your podcasts Laura. You never forget our inner child in the process of reparenting ourselves, and that means the world!
Potty learning
Just listened to my first episode on potty learning and as a mom to a 2.5 year old, this information is very good to have. So glad my friend recommended your channel!
