The Baby Sleep Connection: Holistic help for tired, responsive parents who don't want to sleep train

EP 4: The Hardest Thing I'll Ever Ask You To Do


Listen Later

In this episode, Heather Boyd, mom of 3, sleep coach, and occupational therapist dives into how to trust your baby and trust the process.

As an exhausted and overwhelmed parent, you are likely all too aware of how hard this is. And yet, as a responsive parent looking for a better way to parent than conventional approaches, you've probably already had experiences that have required trusting the process.


Heather guides you to reflect on:

🦋 Appreciating that your baby is doing the best they can at this particular time.
🦋 An evolutionary perspective on what babies have needed (and what your baby needs) to sleep.

🦋 Why curiosity trumps cookie-cutter approaches to sleep coaching.

🦋 How holistic approaches look at your baby's needs but not at the expense of YOUR needs.

🦋 How you can shift from searching for a problem to solve, to trusting the process.

🦋 Difficult does not mean broken.
