This week on Breaking the Ice, I chat with Lauren Rodych-Eberle, wife to Jordan Eberle, captain of the Seattle Kraken. Lauren and I dive into what life looks like in the hockey world as a captain’s family, raising three kids, and building a life that changes every season!

We talk about:

• The difference between in season and off season rhythms
• What it means to be “the captain’s wife” (and the role that comes with it)
• Navigating trades and the constant possibility of moving
• Conscious parenting and how to ground your kids in the chaos
• Having real conversations with older kids about leaving and getting settled for the hockey season
• Finding balance and identity outside of hockey while raising three little ones

Lauren also shares about their family foundation, Sticks and Strings, which supports music and hockey programming for kids. From helping provide instruments to funding hockey camps and clinics, it’s all about creating opportunities for kids to find confidence and connection through both sports and the arts.

This is one of my faves, enjoy!
