Description

One of the things I teach the parents in my community (which is you!), is to be more present in the moment and be fully aware of our thoughts and emotions so that we can fully understand our needs. In this way, we can better address what we need to be more balanced as a parent and as an individual as well. It is so easy to get stuck in a feeling or a narrative of ourselves and our lives, and we can sometimes tell ourselves that it's just always going to be this way, and in these moments of "stuckness" the ability to be psychologically flexible is absolutely critical.   And so for this week's episode, my guest, Diana Hill, and I will be talking about how to be more psychologically flexible and model that to our kids too. Diana is a clinical psychologist and co-author of ACT Daily Journal: Get unstuck and live fully with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She is a co-host of the popular podcast, Psychologists Off the Clock and offers regular teachings in compassion and ACT through InsightLA and Mindful Heart Programs. Through her online teachings, executive coaching, clinical supervision, and private therapy practice, Diana encourages clients to build psychological flexibility so that they can live more meaningful and fulfilling lives.

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.
