Helping our Kids Balance Busy with Dr. Betty-Ann Svendsen (#21)

Balancing Busy

We're taking a shift today and talking more about helping our KIDS balance the busy. I am interviewing Dr. Betty Ann Svendsen, a pediatrician of 25 years and a life coach, so we're getting to learn from someone who has over two decades of experience watching kids as they grow, helping that journey and that process as a pediatrician, but also being a life coach.

I talk to her and ask her about balancing the busyness for our kids and about anxiety, depression, how we can help and support them and what she has seen as the biggest things that are hindering kids today. We talk about over scheduling, not giving them the opportunity to do things for themselves, and I share my thoughts on where we do this, why we do this, where it comes from. This is such a good episode to just help us think about and be more intentional as our roles as parents.

This will help:

👉  Parents stop over scheduling their kids 
👉 Families feel more connected 
👉 Anyone who has kids or teens feel more empowered
