SHE BREAKS THE RULES
EP #23: Outdated Parenting: Raising Toddlers With Respect, Boundaries & Ease with Mandy Richardson from Raise Toddlers.
This week’s episode is a little different, and we think you’re going to love it.
We invited Mandy Richardson, founder of Raise Toddlers, onto the podcast to talk about one of the most misunderstood and overwhelming seasons of motherhood: toddlerhood.
Why?
Because so many of the incredible women who listen to She Breaks the Rules are either mums, mums-to-be, or thinking about starting a family. And just like health and wellness, parenting comes with a LOT of outdated advice, conflicting information, and pressure to “get it right.”
Mandy’s work flips the script on mainstream parenting by challenging the old-school obedience model and helping parents build respectful, connected relationships with their toddlers. In this conversation, we dive into:
- Why “good child” praise can actually create more problems in the long run
- How to decode what’s really going on beneath toddler meltdowns
- The difference between gentle parenting and permissive parenting
- Simple ways to set boundaries without power struggles or guilt
- Practical tips for managing screen time and sibling conflict
- Why toddlerhood is an opportunity for connection, not just survival
Whether you’re deep in the toddler trenches or you’re years away from it, this episode is packed with insights on emotional regulation, leadership as a parent, and breaking away from outdated rules that don’t serve you or your child.
