Description

Happy New Year!
​The year 2020 gave us a lot of worries and fear but I hope you were able to welcome 2021 with positivity. And I wish that you and your family will have the peace and healing that you need from all that you have experienced in the past year.

As we welcome the new year, I want to help YOU become more balanced, centered, and deeply connected to those you love. And when it comes to kids, the way to their hearts is through play, which is why we will be focusing on PLAY for the month of January.

​We start off our month of conversations dedicated to play by exploring how we can bring more independent play into our homes. I'm so excited to have one of the leading experts on play to join me for this conversation: Lizzie of the Workspace for Children is a mom of three creative kids (ages 6, 9, and 11). She has a Masters degree in Education and supports parents all over the world through her blog and Instagram account in the areas of play, art, & conscious parenting

If you want to learn more, follow Lizzie on her Instagram and www.workspaceforchildren.com where you will find creative resources for supporting your child's play.

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.
