Parenting Through Connection with Megan
Welcome to “Parenting Through Connection” with Megan Lachance, a podcast where we dive into the real struggles and complexities of parenting with honesty, hope, and practical strategies. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of raising kids while juggling life’s demands, you're not alone.
Each episode explores both sides of the parenting journey: managing stress and societal expectations, and building strong, meaningful relationships with your children. We’ll talk about the tough stuff; the things people don’t want to talk about or try to hide yet everyone experiences, the moments of feeling stuck and the times when parenting doesn’t feel like the dream you imagined…the ‘hidden’ parts of parenting that results in yelling, anger & sometimes even rage. Through relatable stories, mini coaching sessions, and actionable tips, Megan will help you break through the barriers that keep you feeling stuck, offering support and encouragement to help you find balance.
Parenting doesn’t have to be a daily struggle. Let’s normalize the challenges, let go of shame, and discover ways to enjoy the journey while strengthening your connection with your kids. So tune into “Parenting Through Connection” for a dose of hope, real talk, and the support you need to thrive as a parent.

Episode 15: Why You Don't Need the Parenting Scripts
Have you ever caught yourself googling the right thing to say to your child in a heated moment, hoping that one perfect phrase might be the magic fix? Scripts can feel like a safety net when we’re trying to shift how we parent. In today’s episode of Parenting Through Connection, I’m unpacking the deeper reason parenting scripts sometimes fall short, and how focusing on presence and intention builds more connection than any memorized line.
Here’s what we’re covering in today’s episode:
- When parenting scripts help and when they start to create pressure
- Why kids don’t respond to words alone
- How chasing the “perfect” response can backfire
- Ways to re-ground in hard parenting moments
- How to centre your words in what truly matters, not what sounds right
I’m here to help you show up more confidently as yourself. My self-paced course teaches you how to parent from a place of steadiness and connection, not performance or perfection.
