Every parent knows the scene: your toddler goes from giggles to full-blown meltdown in seconds and nothing you say or do seems to calm the storm. Are tantrums a sign of bad behaviour, bad parenting, or something deeper?

In this episode, I break down what tantrums really mean, why they happen, and how you can respond in ways that not only calm your child but also strengthen your relationship with them. You’ll learn:

• What’s developmentally typical when it comes to tantrums (and when to be concerned)
• Why your child’s brain literally can’t “just calm down” yet and what’s happening neurologically
• The 3 S’s every child needs during a meltdown
• Common mistakes parents make and what to do instead
• Practical, science-backed ways to co-regulate so your child feels understood, not alone

If tantrums leave you feeling triggered, exhausted, or second-guessing yourself, this episode will give you clarity, tools, and a new perspective to turn these chaotic moments into opportunities for growth and connection.
