Send Whitney a Note

So much of sleep is out of our control as moms. Is it even worth the effort? And what do you do when it really is out of your control?

Sleep used to be like a 4-lettered word around here. Between the kids and our own difficulties, quality sleep can feel like an impossible feat.

Join Whitney as she shares her own family's journey through sleep difficulties, how the impacted her health, and how she navigated it. You'll walk away with:

• Basic knowledge of sleep science and sleep "requirements" for moms
• How hormones and other factors affect your sleep
• 4 common barriers to sleep for moms
• Some tips to enhance your sleep

Whitney invites you to really analyze how you approach times when your poor sleep is out of your control and set reasonable expectations for yourself with lots of grace.
