  • Summary

  • The Go-To Podcast for Christians Who Want To Rewrite the Story of Their Family’s legacy! Have you ever wondered why you parent the way you do? Do you find yourself feeling helpless and hopeless because no matter how hard you try, you continue to parent the way you were parented?

Do you see patterns of destructive behavior in your home? Do you recognize chronic stress in your life? Does it feel as though you are unequipped to stop the cycle of dysfunction in your family?

  • 40. Peace at Home: Turning Family Conflicts into Opportunities for Growth
    Jan 15 2025

    Conflict in families is as inevitable as laundry piles and snack debates—but it doesn’t have to lead to chaos. What if those moments of tension could actually become opportunities for growth, healing, and deeper connection?

    In this episode of The Happy Family Coach Podcast, we’re diving into practical, faith-based strategies to turn family conflicts into stepping stones toward peace and understanding. I’ll introduce you to the Happy Kid Toolkit, a simple yet transformative tool to help your family break out of unhealthy patterns, take ownership of their emotions, and communicate with grace.

    We’ll also explore what the Bible says about handling conflict—with humility, patience, and the fruits of the Spirit—and I’ll share real-life scripts for those ‘here we go again’ moments we all face. From siblings fighting over toys to teenagers snapping back, you’ll walk away with practical solutions that bring calm to the chaos.

    If you’re ready to create a legacy of love, grace, and resilience in your home, this episode is for you.

    What You’ll Learn:

    • Why conflict happens (and why it’s normal).
    • How the Happy Kid Toolkit can transform family dynamics.
    • Practical scripts to use during real-life conflicts.
    • Biblical truths that bring peace and perspective.

  • 39. When Parenting Triggers Your Own Trauma: What to Do
    Jan 8 2025

    Hey there, friends!

    Can we be real for a second? Parenting has this incredible way of bringing out the best in us... and also sometimes shining a giant spotlight on the parts of us that still need some healing. Have you ever had a moment when your child’s meltdown felt like it was aimed straight at your soul? Like their refusal to put on shoes suddenly turned into ‘Why do I feel like I’m failing at life?’

    Well, I’ve been there—and that’s what this episode is all about. In When Parenting Triggers Your Own Trauma, we’re diving into what happens when those big emotions bubble up, why it’s actually an opportunity for growth, and how we can respond with grace instead of guilt.

    I’ll share some personal stories (including one involving juice and a very guilty mom moment), practical steps you can take when you’re feeling triggered, and how to start the deeper work of healing. Spoiler alert: it’s not about being perfect—it’s about showing up, owning your story, and leaning into God’s grace.

    So grab your coffee, your journal, or just your earbuds, and join me for a conversation that just might change the way you see those ‘trigger moments’ forever. We’re in this together!

    May the Lord bless you.

    xoxo,

    Danielle
