aggressive behavior in my two year old

My two year old daughter is very aggressive. She has speech problems and is going to speech therapy. She is very stubborn and strong willed and thinks it is funny to hit and kick people. I do not know how to control her behavior or make her understand that hurting people is not funny. I talk to her about it all of the time and it is not working. I have two other girls and they were never this aggressive or mean spirited.[[
