    Transforming Toddlerhood: Empowering Parents to Change the Terrible Twos into Teachable Twos with Devon Kuntzman

    Today on the Say it Here podcast, Judi Franco and Corie Adjmi interview toddler parenting expert and ICF-certified coach Devon Kuntzman about her book and program Transforming Toddlerhood and why “toddlerhood is terrible” is a myth. Devon explains toddlers’  limited impulse control, emotional regulation, and communication skills, while empowering parents to treat behavior as communication rather than just “bad behavior” needing punishment. She offers a new look at parenting young children by emphasizing connection, curiosity, clear limits, consistent follow-through, and skill-teaching (often after everyone calms down). Devon also warns against both authoritarian obedience-first parenting and overcorrecting into giving kids too much power in their relationships with their parents. And when it comes to struggling with public tantrums or potty-training snafus, she covers all of that too. If parenting through toddlerhood has been an uphill battle, this episode is for you! And remember - your kiddo is experiencing constant growth, but parenting is a journey of personal growth as well. Empowering parents is what Devon does best, so hit play for a much-needed morale boost.   Craving more connection?

    In this eye-opening episode, hosts Judi Franco and Corie Adjmi welcome esteemed guest and leading social psychologist, Jon Haidt, recognized for his work on the impact of technology on children.

They discuss the rise in anxiety, depression, and other issues among youths since the widespread adoption of smartphones in 2012, and highlight the importance of policy changes, such as phone-free schools.

And his new book, ‘The Amazing Generation’ is targeted directly at kids and teens to empower them on how to reclaim these elements of childhood for themselves. If you are looking for practical parenting advice on managing screen time and the benefits of limiting exposure to social media, this episode is for you.     Craving more connection?
