Mama Matters Too- Sleep Training Solutions for Overwhelmed Moms Who Need a Little Faith

Are you tired of constantly being exhausted, not knowing what the night will hold? Are you tired of letting your mental and physical health suffer, and feeling out of control of your day to day life as a mama? Are you ready to feel empowered and in control of your mind and home? Are you asking yourself, when will this get easier?   I understand, mama. I was right where you are after having my son in 2019. I felt out of control, depressed, anxious, beyond exhausted, and like a zombie going through my day-to-day life. Bottles, diapers, cat naps, and endless rocking and shushing trying to get just one hour of collective sleep; that’s what my life looked like for 5 months. It just wasn’t working. For me, my husband, or our son; he was exhausted as well! That’s when I discovered sleep training. Sleep training changed our lives; my son was happier and well rested, my mental health slowly got better, and my home finally had some peace and predictability (as much predictability as you can have as a mom!).   However, I felt like my sleep training experience was missing something. It wasn’t customized specifically for my family, I had a lot of questions that didn’t get answered, and I could have used some non-judgmental support and encouragement while walking through the process! So, I created it, for you. I went to work and got certified as a Sleep Training Consultant and a Postpartum Doula, so that I could create a space for moms to get complete support as they walk through sleep training their babies, while supporting their mental health and helping them create routines that work best for their family.   Inside this podcast, you will find sleep solutions and tips for children age newborn-3 years old, encouragement and community (you are not alone!!), tips on how to bring routines and predictability to your home, and how to navigate postpartum and beyond. So go refill your iced coffee and listen up, mama! Because you matter, too!

To the Christian mom with anxiety:
 
You’ve been told to pray harder. You’ve been told there’s nothing to be afraid of as long as you believe in Him and live a life full of faith.
 
God tells us in Philippians 4:6-7: “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand."
 
There is absolutely truth and comfort there, But what happens when that doesn't automatically cure us? Does that mean we are sinning?
 
We live in broken bodies that inevitably fail us, and we live in a broken world that adds to all of the worry. There are also many women who live with a chemical imbalance in their brain, causing or adding to the anxiety. 
 
In this episode, we dive into the ways we can break free from those thoughts that hold us captive, and replace our anxious thoughts with truths from above.
 
I pray this brings you rest, and remember…you matter too, mama!

I want to talk about kind of a hot topic today, which is if no cry sleep training methods exist and if they work. Spoiler alert…they do!....kinda. Like most things in life, there are pros and cons to any method we use to get your baby or toddler sleeping!
 
Backed by experience and my own research, schooling, and scientific studies done, I approach this episode from a place of complete love and just wanting to help you and your family get sleep again in a way that works best for you.
 
Please remember that YOUR mental health and sleep matters, and your baby also needs sleep in order to thrive and grow! Which is why I approach sleep training by looking at the whole picture, and we use a method that feels most comfortable to you.
 
I pray this brings you peace and rest no matter how you choose to get your baby (and you!) some sleep, and remember…you matter too, mama!
