Be Direct | Cut through the parenting buzzwords and connect with your toddler

In this episode, we dive into the importance of being direct and clear when communicating with your toddler. Say goodbye to the endless search for the "right" parenting language or trying to follow every expert's advice. We discuss why using straightforward language and saying what you mean can strengthen your connection with your child, build trust, and reduce frustration for both of you. Discover how prioritizing clarity over trendy parenting lingo can make your interactions more authentic and effective. We explore practical tips for being real with your toddler in the moment, without getting caught up in the latest parenting trends or trying to find the perfect phrasing. Unlock the power of direct communication and foster a deeper understanding with your little one.

The best thing I ever did in motherhood was get off of social media! My intuition became soooo much louder and clearer without all of the extra noise. I wish that for all parents. ❤ Thank you for this podcast, I appreciate you both.

[@racheltaylor2501]

I love this podcast! Thank you ladies for always being so genuine and thoughtful. ❤

[@luccianaborn6629]

Every time Jess speaks I feel seen thank you 🥲

[@ashleywall9886]

This is soooo good! I hear so many moms that sound like they actually have a script, meanwhile I’m just over here trying to keep the house from burning down all while trying to validate their feelings! Thanks you guys!

[@iniutek9492]

This is the answer for the problem no one talks about. I could't name it before but I felt like something is off with my parenting. Why it is not like other mom's on social media. And now I know that often social media are the problem, not me. Thank you very very much ❤️

[@kimberlyhamilton8992]

Thank you for this. We need more people like y’all

[@sarahforbister4687]

I just stumbled upon your baby 101 videos because I am expecting my first and am seeking info, guidance, knowledge, etc. I just wanted to say I absolutely love your videos and positive approach to life, love, and motherhood. Thank you for bringing this into my life. Keep up the great work!

[@laurenvazquez6729]

Once again you guys killed it. Also, I am that mom that overuses the word “frustrated” so thank you for opening my eyes to that. I have a podcast topic request that I feel like could be a spin off of this one that I don’t find many people talking about and that is mom rage. Would love to hear y’all’s thoughts on it.

[@enquiryco.6688]

Tell us more! Would love to do an episode about "mom rage" next season. What does that mean to you (anybody who wants to add their thoughts would be so helpful!)?
