Ep545. Renee chats with toddler expert and Transforming Toddlerhood author Devon Kuntzman about surviving the chaotic toddler years without losing your mind. Devon explains why tantrums, hitting, and “defiance” aren’t bad behavior—they’re communication—and shares simple mindset shifts and scripts that stop power struggles before they spiral. They talk parent guilt, public meltdowns, and why discipline is truly about teaching skills, not punishing mistakes.
