#14 - Exhausted and Overwhelmed? Why Sleep Isn’t Working and What to Do Instead (For You and Your Kids)


Listen Later

In this episode, I invite you to reimagine sleep not as another item to master on your parenting checklist, but as a sacred act of connection, restoration, and self-honoring.

We explore the seasons of motherhood, the internal cues we often dismiss, and how sleep can be the soft ground that supports your wholeness.

This isn’t about rigid sleep schedules. It’s about intuition, awareness, and reclaiming the power of rest both for your children and yourself.

✨ Inside this episode:• How our cultural relationship with sleep keeps mothers stuck in exhaustion• Why honoring your own rhythm is foundational to supporting your child’s• How human design helped me understand my deep need for rest• The emotional weight of “doing it all” and what you can release now• What conscious sleep support actually looks like (no, it’s not cry-it-out)• How sleep becomes a portal to your truest self

If you’re tired, deeply tired, this one’s for you.

You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of what your body and your child actually need from rest and how to support that without forcing a schedule, losing your mind, or abandoning yourself.
