In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the most misunderstood parts of parenting—the toddler tantrum. What’s developmentally normal? What’s not? And why do some kids melt down over a peeled banana while others roll with it? I’m walking you through the four big triggers that cause tantrums (hungry, tired, overstimulated, and loss of control) and which of those you can actually do something about. From the truth about “hangry” kids and snack culture, to overtired toddlers, overstimulation, and the importance of autonomy, I’ll help you build a strong foundation for the zero-to-six years. Because when you get these four things right, you don’t just prevent tantrums—you create a calmer, more connected home.
