Fighting Societal Sleep Norms Isn't Easy. But That's what makes it so special.

On today's episode of the "Spoil Your Baby" Podcast, Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum is joined for a conversation with Sleep Specialist and Neuroscience Practitioner, Brittany Chambers. Brittany's "Good Night Moon Child" program combines Modern Science with Ancient Wisdom surrounding Natural Infant Sleep.

For Brittany, Sleep Sharing was instinctual. When she gave birth to her daughter, regardless of what she was told by the caregivers in the hospital… She wanted to have her daughter share sleep with her. It came from her own experience as a child constantly feeling like she desired to stay in bed with her own parents. The decision paid off, and it has given her daughter so much autonomy as she has grown older.

Brittany's work is totally natural, it's backed by anthropology and science… and it's part of our own design as human beings. The biggest issue that mothers are facing are years of tradition and societal norms. Despite our good intentions, oftentimes many of us were separated from our parents as children. It happened to Brittany, and even as a child she thought it felt unnatural. Now she is helping so many others by working to change our societal mindset surrounding sleep.

Regardless of your struggles as a parent, one thing that is absolutely true: by listening to the "Spoil Your Baby" Podcast, you're already choosing to improve yourself, to create space, and to grow as a parent.
