In today’s episode, I'm talking about a powerful parenting strategy that will shift how you respond to your toddler’s challenging behaviors. When your child is whining, melting down, or showing aggression, it’s easy to feel frustrated or overwhelmed, but what if those behaviors weren’t personal? What if they were clues?

You’ll learn how to look beneath the surface of your toddler’s behavior and uncover the why behind the outbursts and how this shift can lead to fewer power struggles, more cooperation, and a deeper connection with your child.

In the episode:

• Why behavior is like an iceberg

• Why traditional discipline can do more harm than good

• 4 powerful questions to ask when your toddler is melting down

• When to set a boundary vs. when to be flexible

This episode will help you shift from reacting in the moment to responding with intention and grace. Let’s explore how curiosity can transform your parenting.
