The Ups and Downs of Feeding Toddlers
🍽️ Ever made the "perfect" meal for your toddler only to watch it land on the floor? In this episode, pediatrician Dr. Cathryn shares why toddler eating patterns are totally normal, even when they feel chaotic.
Key takeaways:
• Growth explains everything: Children's growth slows down naturally after year one. Some days they'll eat everything, others barely anything – and that's perfectly fine as long as they are growing well! Understanding this pattern helps parents stress less about daily food battles.
• It's all about control: Mealtime behavior is often your toddler's way of showing independence. Dr. Cathryn shares her "cho-cho" story from Grenada to help parents see food from their toddler's perspective.
• Different eating styles: Know if you have an "eat anything" adventurous eater, "maybe not" cautious eater, or the common "might like it" in-between eater. Understanding your child's natural style makes mealtimes smoother.

How To Raise An Awesome Kid
In this episode, Dr. Cathryn discusses how to avoid raising an entitled child and instead foster resilience. She begins by explaining the characteristics of entitled behavior in children while clarifying that normal toddler self-centeredness is different from entitlement.
Dr. Cathryn provides real-life scenarios to illustrate entitled behavior before delving into strategies for encouraging resilience. These strategies include treating toddlers as capable, assigning age-appropriate chores, maintaining boundaries, and encouraging problem-solving. She also emphasizes the importance of modeling gratitude, teaching delayed gratification, and celebrating effort rather than just results.
The episode highlights the significance of allowing children to experience disappointment and age-appropriate risks as part of their development. Dr. Cathryn encourages parents to reflect on whether they're allowing their children to take on suitable responsibilities and if they're modeling resilience themselves.

Break the Calm-Calm-Snap Cycle
Ever find yourself starting calm, only to snap after your toddler ignores you again and again? It happens to the best of us—but it doesn’t have to stay that way. Dr. Cathryn is here to show you how to break the calm-snap cycle and manage tough toddler moments with patience and connection.
**3 Key Points to Break the Calm-Snap Cycle:**
✔️ The Power Pause:** When you feel frustration rising, take a quick pause. Breathe, and remind yourself that your toddler is just acting their age. This simple break can stop you from snapping.
✔️ Mindset Shift:** Tantrums are normal and part of healthy development. Instead of seeing them as a sign your child is misbehaving, recognize they’re struggling and need your help to regulate.
✔️ Grounding Techniques:** In the moment, focus on something tangible like your feet pressing into the ground. This practice helps you stay present and calm during challenging behaviors.
Want to dive deeper? Join Dr. Cathryn’s FREE masterclass on the E.A.S.Y. method, where you’ll learn practical tools to stay calm, set boundaries, and handle tantrums with confidence. Get Your Seat Here
