How to Talk with a Toddler (and Be Heard Without Being Harsh)

Ever feel like your toddler just doesn’t listen? In this episode, Dr. Cathryn breaks down simple, effective ways to talk with your toddler so they *actually* engage and listen—without power struggles or meltdowns.

✔️ Why short and simple sentences work best

✔️ How connection makes kids more likely to listen

✔️ The power of tone—what you say and how you say it

✔️ How giving choices can prevent battles

✔️ Why saying what they can do (instead of what they can’t) matters

✔️ A simple trick to make “no” easier to accept
