Wired or Tired? Why Your Toddler Loses It at Bedtime

Learn the simple brain science behind overtiredness, the early signs that your child’s sleep window is opening, and why the “second wind” isn’t extra energy. It’s a stress response.

I’ll walk you through how to spot the subtle cues, how to shift bedtime earlier, and what to do when you’ve missed the window, and your child is bouncing off the walls.

You’ll also get a quick, big-hearted reset routine you can use anytime evenings go sideways.

This episode will help you understand your child’s behavior, calm the chaos, and make bedtime smoother for everyone.
