Fewer, Shorter, and Way Easier Tantrums

Tantrums are a normal and healthy part of toddlerhood! In this episode, we explore why tantrums happen and what they’re not. They aren’t signs of bad parenting, manipulation, or a lack of discipline—they’re your toddler’s way of expressing emotions they don’t yet have the skills to handle.

We’ll share practical, big-hearted solutions to make tantrums fewer, shorter, and easier to manage. You’ll walk away feeling more confident and connected with your child, even during their toughest moments.

Here’s what we cover:

• 
  Fewer Tantrums: Learn how my P.R.E.P. method (Preview, Rehash, Engage, Pretend Play) helps toddlers feel prepared and reduces meltdowns.


• 
  Shorter Tantrums: Timing matters! You’ll learn how to stay calm, validate your child’s feelings, and step in when the tantrum shifts from anger to sadness—all while setting big-hearted firm, clear boundaries.


• 
  Easier Tantrums: Shift your mindset with a simple mantra: “A tantrum is just a toddler acting their age.” When you accept tantrums as normal and guide your child through their big feelings, they become easier for both of you to handle.
