Wendy Snyder

Wendy Snyder is a Certified Powerful Parenting Educator and Family Life Coach, founder of Fresh Start Family, and host of the top-rated Fresh Start Family Show podcast. Through her transformational programs, coaching, and courses, Wendy has helped thousands of families break generational cycles of fear, punishment, and disconnection—replacing them with firm and kind leadership and compassionate discipline rooted in dignity, grace, and rock-solid relationships.

A Southern California mom of two (and wife to her high school sweetheart), Wendy’s mission was born out of her own deeply humbling parenting journey—navigating anxiety, power struggles, and the intense emotions of raising a strong-willed kid. She now equips parents worldwide with tools that take them from stressed and frazzled to peaceful and empowered—creating homes where both children and adults can thrive with mutual respect and emotional growth.

With her relatable stories, down-to-earth wisdom, and faith-inspired encouragement, Wendy empowers parents to lead with love and rewrite their family legacy—one brave choice at a time.

When she’s not coaching parents or recording her next podcast episode, Wendy is likely out hiking with her two big, high-maintenance (but adorable) doggies, swooning over latte art at her favorite local coffee shop, or enjoying slow mornings filled with sunshine, surf, and soul care.
