Why do toddlers have such big emotions and why do their outbursts leave us feeling so helpless? In this episode of The Motherhood Podcast, we sit down with Gail Friend, Life Transformer and NLP coach specializing in parent, child, and family relationships.

Together, we unpack the emotional world of toddlers, what’s really happening beneath those meltdowns, and how parents can shift from reacting to responding with calm. Gail shares powerful mindset tools, real-life strategies, and a fresh lens on how to connect with your child and with yourself , in the moments that matter most.

This is a must-listen for any parent navigating tantrums, triggers, and the beautifully messy journey of raising emotionally healthy humans.
