Are you on the front lines of the potty training battle and about ready to retreat? You're not alone. In this episode of Whole Parent Podcast, we march through the trenches of transitioning toddlers from diapers to the potty. You'll gain insights into the emotional journey, not just for the kiddos, but for you, the captains of the porcelain throne. 

Truly, the art of potty training can feel like and insurmountable challenge. It requires patience, reassurance, and confidence most of us feel like we just don't have... BUT WE SHOULD! We're experts in this... we just forget that sometimes.
 
We tackle common parenting fears and dismantle the myths that shroud the potty training process. From the significance of a shame-free approach to handling accidents, to the potential of using rewards judiciously, we cover strategies that respect both the child's individuality and the parent's role in this developmental milestone. And if you're wondering about the journey from diapers to underwear, or even commando, we have practical advice that promises to make the transition as smooth as a baby's bottom.

Round out your potty training strategy as you listen to these shared experiences and research-backed insights. Remember, whether your child is just starting out or has been at it for a while, there's wisdom here for every stage. And don't keep these nuggets of knowledge to yourself - sharing this episode with someone in the midst of the potty training pilgrimage could be a game-changer for them. 

Join me as we rewrite the narrative on potty training, fostering independence and confidence in our tiny humans, one episode at a time.
