In this refreshingly honest and heartening episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, host Ginny Yurich welcomes toddler expert Devon Kuntzman of Transforming Toddlerhood to unravel the chaos—and beauty—of the toddler years. With warmth and insight, Devon helps parents reframe meltdowns not as failures but as essential, biologically driven emotional releases (yes, tantrums are like emotional poops!). Together they explore how nature, connection, and curiosity can soothe both kids and caregivers in even the most exhausting moments.

Whether your toddler is yelling “no,” breaking down over a cracked granola bar, or sprinting away at lightning speed, this conversation offers science-backed strategies, empathy, and a powerful reminder: this season is short, but it’s shaping both you and your child. Learn why Devon says parenting toddlers is really about learning to let go, how to create emotional safety without giving up your boundaries, and why the outdoors might be your best parenting hack. Preorder her upcoming book Transforming Toddlerhood here and follow her on Instagram at @transformingtoddlerhood.

Listen in and exhale. You're not alone—and you're not doing it wrong.
