How To Potty Train Without Panic

July 20, 2026 · 23 min

Show notes

In this episode of Robot Unicorn, Jess tackles the often overwhelming topic of potty training. She explores why traditional methods, like the popular three-day approach, often fail and cause unnecessary stress for both parents and kids, and offers a mindset shift from potty training to potty learning. Jess helps you recognize the true signs of readiness and also breaks down how to tailor your approach based on your child's unique temperament—whether they are adaptable, sensitive, or strong-willed.
