The Happy Family Coach

The Happy Family Coach Podcast and services for families seeking generational healing. Do you know how parents are overwhelmed with the responsibilities of raising children?

Offering biblical counseling and faith-based coaching to break unhealthy patterns, improve relationships, and grow emotionally and spiritually. I hear from my clients all the time how frustrated they are with the meltdowns, talking back, helpless baby, sibling rivalry that takes place at home. Parents come in with feelings of guilt of being a "bad parent" - as if there is such a thing! I'm Danielle Alvarez Greer, AKA 'The Happy Family Coach'. I empower my clients to create clear boundaries so that they can enjoy a loving, harmonious and peaceful home life. I'm a mother, mentor, family coach and owner of The Happy Kid Toolkit™. The Happy Kid Toolkit™ treats unhappiness by teaching individuals how to take responsibility for their own happiness. I use The Happy Kid Toolkit™ to demonstrate how it is that we cause our own disharmony by believing the thoughts we think. My clients will have the opportunity to see how their own unhappy family and relationship dynamics play out, and why. Parents, children, professionals and individuals will leave each one-on-one coaching session with a set of skills/tools to use towards obtaining higher levels of happiness and satisfaction in all they experience in their daily lives and personal relationships. "As an engaging coach, speaker and teacher, Danielle never fails to entertain, provide laughter, and create an enjoyable learning environment. She not only speaks from the heart , she truly does “walk her talk” in how she lives her own personal and professional life, utilizing The Reality Formula™ and Happy Kid Toolkit™ in her own home with her two young children; Sawyer (13), and Reese (9)." ~ Lynne Forrest

You can understand your triggers.
You can name your emotions.
You can do the inner work.

And still get stuck when it’s time to respond.

Emotional maturity isn’t proven by how much insight you have—it’s revealed in what you choose after awareness.
After the emotion is named.
After the pattern is recognized.

Reaction is automatic.
Response is intentional.

And that choice—made one moment at a time—is where real change takes root in our families, marriages, and relationships.

What happens when you finally slow down enough to heal?

This video is a blend of real moments from our September Renew & Restore retreat and glimpses of the beautiful, quiet space we’ll gather in this February.

What you’re seeing is not a highlight reel of perfection — it’s what happens when women are given permission to rest, reflect, pray, laugh, cry, and simply be human in a safe, unhurried space.

Renew & Restore isn’t a conference and it isn’t therapy.
It’s a slow, Scripture-rooted, Spirit-led women’s healing retreat where you’re invited — never pressured — to engage at your own pace.

We’ll gather February 19–22 in a peaceful, cozy setting to make room for what God wants to restore.

A few spots remain 🤍

Your emotions aren’t the problem—they’re messengers.

Anger. Irritation. Overwhelm. Anxiety.
They don’t show up to ruin your day—they show up to get your attention.

The question isn’t “Why do I feel this way?”
It’s “What is this emotion trying to tell me?”

In Episode 93 of The Happy Family Coach Podcast, we’re talking about how to listen to emotions with wisdom—without letting them lead. Because when emotions stop driving and start informing, everything changes: how we respond, how we parent, how we love.

You don’t need to silence your emotions.
And you don’t need to obey them.
You can learn to listen well.

If you’re anything like most of us, you feel things before you ever have time to think about them. Anger, anxiety, overwhelm, sadness—they show up fast, and often louder than we expect. And somewhere along the way, many of us were taught either to ignore our emotions or let them run the show. Ne...

Standing here with my family, I was reminded that healing doesn’t come from bypassing pain—it comes from facing it with truth, love, and presence.

Most family reactions don’t start with behavior—they start with a thought. In this episode, I’m slowing everything down and inviting you into the moment most families miss: the space between a trigger and a reaction. That pause—however small—is where Scripture tells us real change is possi...

That photo from our family trip?
Beautiful on the outside… reactive on the inside.

I didn’t pause well. I got frustrated. I told myself some lies.
And then I had to slow down, take my thoughts captive after reacting, and repair with my kids.

Episode 92 is about the pause most of us miss—the space between a trigger and a reaction—and how learning to pause can interrupt family cycles and create room for grace.

What if the hardest moments in your family aren’t signs that something is wrong…but invitations to think differently? So many families love God deeply—and still feel stuck in the same cycles of conflict, emotional reactivity, shutdown, control, or exhaustion. Not because they aren’t trying h...

Most families don’t struggle because they lack love.
They struggle because unexamined thoughts quietly shape everyday reactions.

The tone of your home.
The way conflict escalates—or shuts down.
How emotions are handled.
How connection is built… or slowly eroded.

All of it flows downstream from what’s happening in the mind.

Romans 12:2 doesn’t tell us to try harder or fix our kids.
It invites us to be transformed.

In today’s new podcast episode, I talk about why real family change doesn’t come from behavior modification, control, or pressure—but from renewed minds and Spirit-led truth.

This episode is for you if:
• you love God but feel stuck in the same family patterns
• reactivity keeps showing up even when you want peace
• you’re tired of managing behavior instead of experiencing transformation

You don’t need a perfect family.
You don’t need more rules.
You need a renewed way of thinking.

Sometimes the things hurting our marriage aren’t sins —
they’re survival strategies we never healed.

Episode 90 is for the wives who love deeply, try hard, and still feel disconnected.

Not blame.
Not shame.
Just truth, compassion, and a Spirit-led invitation to heal.
