Do you want to pull your hair out or google "is my toddler a sociopath" only 33% of the time? Do you LOVE AND ADORE parenting only 33% of the time? If so, congrats! You are exactly where the universe expects you to be.Today I'm sharing the a-ha moment I had when I discovered a concept called "The Rule Of Thirds." It's a perfect analogy for the experience of sleep guidance that I so often see with clients. But more so, it gives us permission, with parenting, jobs, marriages, and just day to day life, to not feel like we're falling short if things don't feel awesome almost all of the time. According to this theory, it's not even a realistic goal! So take a listen, go out into the world today, and permission to accept whichever of the three experiences comes your way.Loved this episode?

Q1? The busiest season for my business, every single year, without fail. Why? Because that's right after the holidays....and the holidays SUCK if your baby or toddler can't sleep. The mix of exhaustion during celebrations, judgement from family, and the annual desire to do better this year = it's a sleepy combo that keeps my waitlist long and my days booked.So my challenge to you? DON'T WAIT until you get to that point! Don't be a January Jessica when you could be a September Sarah. January Jessica is going to get in a fight with her MIL at Christmas Eve dinner about whether or not the baby is hungry and go cry in a closet, rage texting her husband that his family is insane. September Sarah would never! Her baby sleeps so well, her MIL is asking HER if she can give advice to the other parents at the table, because they all wish their babies slept like Sarahs. That's the life I want for you!Loved this episode?

After ​Amanda Rice​ was diagnosed with cancer three times before the age of 40, one of the most upsetting experiences she had had nothing to do with the cancer itself - it was the fact that no one told her, or seemed to care, that she may never be able to have kids as a result of the necessary treatment. So she founded ​The Chick Mission​.Since then, over 670 patients have been supported in the costs of their fertility treatments, saving these women a collective $8.8M. In addition, major mandates have been passed in New York, Georgia, Oklahoma and Texas (to name a few!), expanding access and funding to care for oncoertility patients. Inspired yet?

Newborn grunting and groaning? Baby smushing themselves up into a corner of the crib? Those are just two of the many sleep habits parents ask me about all the time.

So today, I'm going to share a few of the most common baby sleep habits that I reassure parents about every day - hopefully you'll hear one you've been worrying about, and have something to finally release!Loved this episode?

I usually love being an expert, but not so much in this case.
