  • Terrible Twos? Tricky Threes? Why Toddlerhood Isn’t as Awful as They Say with Devon Kuntzman
    Oct 23 2025
    If you're deep in the toddler years—or bracing yourself for them—this episode is for you. I’m joined by toddler expert and coach Devon Kuntzman, founder of Transforming Toddlerhood and author of a new must-read parenting book. We talk all things tantrums, meltdowns, big feelings, power struggles, and why every age in the toddler stage seems to come with a negative label (“terrible twos,” “threenager,” “f***ing fours”… you get the idea).

    Devon explains what’s really going on in your toddler’s brain, why quick-fix hacks don’t work, and how to parent with connection, calm, and confidence—even in the middle of Target. We also talk about parental guilt, social media overwhelm, and why kids don’t need a perfect parent—they need a human one.

    Whether you're handling back-to-back meltdowns or wondering how to support your toddler's emotional growth without losing your own mind, this episode is a deep breath and a warm hug in podcast form.
