Description

This week on Unprepared, Sahar sits down with Lauren Proffitt, the sleep trainer who saved her sanity when her first child refused to sleep more than 45 minutes at a time. They revisit Sahar’s desperate early days of motherhood—crippling sleep deprivation, postpartum anxiety, and the moment she realized this isn’t normal—and how Lauren’s in-home sleep training transformed their family. Lauren breaks down the myths, the realities of customizing sleep plans for each child’s personality, and why naps are actually harder to fix than nighttime sleep. Plus: the surprising truth about breastfed babies and sleep training, and why parents shouldn’t feel guilty for prioritizing rest.


From newborns to defiant 5-year-olds, Lauren shares her decade of experience helping families reclaim their nights (and sanity). Whether you’re a sleep-deprived new parent or battling bedtime with a toddler, this episode is all about what a sleep trainer could do for you and yours. Because everyone deserves rest.
