How to Stay Calm When Your Toddler Isn’t: 3 Powerful Mindset Shifts
🎧 How to Stay Calm When Your Toddler Isn’t: 3 Powerful Mindset Shifts
Welcome back to Toddlers Made Easy—the no-fluff podcast for parents in the thick of toddlerhood. I’m Dr. Cathryn—pediatrician (just recently retired), mom of four, and your guide to big-hearted parenting that actually works.
Ever feel like you’re one meltdown away from losing it yourself?
In today’s episode, I’m sharing 3 mindset shifts that will help you stay calm even when your toddler isn’t. These small but mighty shifts will help you:
đź’ˇ React with less guilt and more confidence
đź’ˇ Understand misbehavior without taking it personally
💡 Build connection—even in the hardest moments
💠You’ll learn:
Why thinking long-term helps you respond more lovingly in the moment
How your toddler’s brain development explains their wild behavior
Why “bad behavior” is often just a lack of skills—not defiance
💛 This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up with compassion—for your child and yourself.
