113: Repair Over Perfection: Raising Emotionally Resilient Toddlers with Devon from Transforming Toddlerhood.

What if the secret to raising confident, emotionally resilient toddlers isn’t about getting it right all the time — but what we do after things go wrong?

In this heartwarming and honest conversation, I sit down with Devon Kuntzman, founder of Transforming Toddlerhood and the original toddler parenting coach on Instagram, to talk about the power of repair over perfection.

Together we explore:

• Why parents feel so much pressure to be perfect — and how the brain science shows that it’s the repair moments that truly matter
• How rupture and repair wire your child’s brain for resilience and emotional intelligence
• The powerful role of repair in reducing shame (for both parents and kids)
• Real-life examples of what repair sounds like after yelling, meltdowns, or power struggles
• Why giving ourselves permission to be human is the key to raising secure, strong kids

Devon also shares insights from her brand-new book, Transforming Toddlerhood, which is packed with practical tools, encouragement, and a fresh, empowering perspective for parents in the thick of toddler life.

If you’ve ever worried that you’re messing it up — this episode is your reminder that every moment of repair is a chance to reconnect and grow together.
