253: Stop "Trying" To Potty Train (Bite Size Nugget)
Description
In this bite-sized nugget, I’m tackling one of the biggest potty training mistakes I see right now: “trying” to potty train. And by trying, I don’t mean giving it an honest go—I mean sampling it here and there, doing it only on weekends, or half-committing and hoping your kid magically figures it out. Spoiler: that just sends mixed messages and sets everyone up for frustration. Potty training, like learning to read, takes consistency and commitment. In this episode, I’m breaking down why “there is no try” (yep, straight out of Yoda’s playbook), what happens when you wait until you’re up against a deadline, and why you’re better off not starting at all than dabbling. If you’ve been dipping a toe into potty training instead of diving in, this one’s your loving reality check.
