The Balanced Family

Welcome to our podcast! This episode is about how we became content creators in 2020, started a business, and began what we’ve coined the “Balance Families Movement.” We hope you’ll join it! We’ll also reflect on how polarized our world has become and how it affects us as parents. The number of decisions we have to make puts our brains on overdrive and the amount of information and opinions out there is just overwhelming. Today, we'll share some of the hard-earned secrets we've found as a couple to maintain joy amidst the grind of family life.

Launching January 7, 2025! The Balanced Family podcast is a heartfelt talk about building a family in a polarized, stressed-out world.

They're all about being intentional and talking about the stuff that matters. It’s the perfect blend of deep yet down-to-earth - like sitting down with good friends you can laugh with but also talk about the important things.

03 Mom Shaming, Formula Feeding, and the “High Stakes” Decisions that Really Don't Matter

The Lagrones have a wild story for you, today. It’s about the circumstances surrounding their lives when they had their third baby and why raising her looked differently than their other kids. On the surface, you might think this is about formula versus breastmilk. But that is FAR from what this episode is about. It’s about knowing when to endure but also knowing when to quit. It’s about making decisions as a united couple and shutting out the noises in your lives. Most importantly, it’s about finding peace in chaos. MEN: don’t think this is episode is just for women. If you want to learn to love your wife better, you need to understand her world (as Ben attempts to today). And this is a just a small glimpse into it. Welcome to the world of MOM SHAME.
