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 18: How Using Repair Over Rupture Helps Prevent Childhood Trauma
No matter how intentional we are, we all have moments where we snap, shut down, or react in ways we wish we hadn’t. Today’s episode of Parenting Through Connection is about what we do after a rupture occurs. Instead of letting those moments become shame spirals or disconnection, I share how repair brings us back to relationship, safety, and trust, for both us and our children.
Here’s what we get into:
- What’s happening in your nervous system when you “lose it” and why rupture is inevitable in every human relationship
- What repair sounds like in real life with simple approaches you can use today
- The importance of using repair to instill emotional resilience and secure attachment
- The truth that it’s never too late to restore connection
Remember, connection isn’t built in perfection; it’s built in how we come back to one another after rupture.
If you’re ready to go deeper into understanding your nervous system and building secure connection with your kids, check out my main parenting program, Rooted In the Middle. Thanks for listening and I’ll see you next time!
