Toddlers can be very persistent—whether it’s demanding a cookie right now or refusing to leave the playground. But their behavior isn’t about being spoiled or manipulative—it’s about developing impulse control and emotional regulation.


In This Episode, You’ll Learn:


✔️ Why toddlers seem so demanding (and why it’s not personal)


✔️ What not to say in the heat of the moment


✔️ How to use redos to teach better ways to ask for things


✔️ The power of play and role-playing to build skills


✔️ Why staying calm is the key to reducing power struggles

Plus, I’m introducing Big-Hearted Parenting Club—your go-to support system for raising confident, resilient kids. Join the waitlist today! 💛 Link in show notes.
