195 // How to Keep Your Cool When Sleep Deprived and Connecting With Kids During the School Year


Listen Later

It’s one thing to set aside time to sleep. That’s tricky enough. However, even when we allow ourselves the time to sleep, sometimes our kids simply don’t cooperate in allowing us to get several hours of consecutive sleep. What can we do then? In this episode, we address some coping strategies to help you when you are dealing with this special brand of sleep deprivation.

We also talk about how it can be tricky to find connection time with our kids once school starts and give some tips that have helped us.

Review of the week by MaryHag:

So very helpful!

I’ve been so thrilled with this podcast. It’s been a huge help and has made me feel like I’m not alone in my challenges. You both are inspiring to me and helped me decide to learn to play the piano in the next 5 years after listening to your episode on a grown mindset.
