Have you ever wondered why your child seems fearful of things you know are perfectly safe or why they resist certain situations that feel normal to you?
In today’s episode, we dive deep into the fascinating difference between perspective and perception.
I promise, this episode is going to be incredibly enlightening and powerful for your parenting journey. While I’m no psychologist, I’ll be breaking this down in the simplest way possible—because that’s how I learn too! As a mind-body practitioner, I geek out over psychology and love understanding how our brains work. But don’t worry, you don’t need a degree to follow along—just an open mind and a willingness to see things from your child’s perspective.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
- The fundamental difference between perspective (how adults see the world) and perception (how children experience it).
- Why young children rely solely on their senses and emotions to interpret the world.
- How experiences shape their perceptions of safety and trust.
- Why some children struggle with sleep in a cot and how we can gently shift their perception of safety.
- How your own perceptions of sleep and independence influence your child’s experience.
- The role of consistency, regulation, and positive messaging in helping your child feel safe and secure.
"Children see magic because they look for it. Adults see magic because they’ve learned where it’s hidden."
We have the privilege of showing our children where safety, comfort, and trust are hidden. It’s in our words, our calm presence, and the consistency of our love that we help shape their world.

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبWelcome back, Thrivers! In this episode, we're tackling a topic that so many parents struggle with—perfectionism in parenting. If you've ever felt like you're failing because things didn’t go as planned, this one’s for you. I get it. I’ve been there. Whether it’s worrying about sleep routines, questioning if we’ve “ruined” everything by comforting our child a certain way, or feeling like we need to get it all right, perfectionism sneaks up on us in ways we don’t even realise. But the truth is, parenting isn’t meant to be perfect—it’s meant to be human. In this episode, I dive into: How perfectionism shows up in parenting (and why we don’t even realise it). The hidden pressure we put on ourselves to control the uncontrollable. Why comparison (especially with other parents) fuels our self-doubt. How to shift from control to connection and let go of the guilt. Practical ways to pause, reset, and remind ourselves that we are enough . Parenting is messy. It’s unpredictable. And that’s okay. If you’ve ever felt like you’re falling short, this episode is your reminder that you are doing better than you think. If this resonates with you, share this episode with a fellow parent who needs to hear it!

1 3 Baby Sleep Quick Win Areas That Make it all Feel Easier (No Extra Effort Required!) 39:29
39:29 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب39:29
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبWelcome to the 51st episode of Thriving Parenting. I’m truly grateful to be part of your journey and to share the parenting wisdom I’ve gathered over nearly 13 years. In today’s episode, I’m diving into three quick win areas that can dramatically improve your baby’s sleep with minimal extra effort. These areas are: 1. Sleep Environment I’ve found that setting up the right sleep environment is an absolute game changer. I chat about how darkening your baby’s room—even just about 80% during day sleeps—can help them transition through their sleep cycles more easily. 2. Sleep Pressure The natural biological drive that tells our little ones it’s time to sleep. I share insights from my free sleep cheat guide, which gives average awake times as a guide to help avoid having either overtired or under-tired babies. 3. Hunger It might sound simple, but ensuring your baby is well fed is a crucial part of the sleep equation. I discuss how distracted feeding can lead to reduced calorie intake during the day, which might then lead to more frequent wake-ups at night. I also share some very personal moments from my parenting journey. From recording my son’s transitioning voice to delicately helping my daughter let go of her treasured teddies, I reveal the bittersweet realities of watching our children grow. It’s a reminder that even on the tough days, every little win adds up, and we’re all just doing our best to thrive as a family. “Children do not experience our intentions, no matter how heartfelt. Instead, they experience our tone, behaviour, and actions.” A less stressed parent is truly the best parent, and by making these small changes, we can all feel a bit more at ease.

Visit my new website, https://sleepthrivegrow.com . Crying. It’s something all parents struggle with, and yet, society has conditioned us to fear it. We’re told a “good” baby is a quiet baby, and when our little one cries, we start questioning everything: Am I doing it wrong? Am I breaking trust? Should I stop this immediately? But what if we rewrote this story? Instead of seeing crying as a problem, what if we recognized it as a form of communication—not something to fix, but something to support? Today, we’re unpacking: Why society has trained us to fear crying How crying is essential for emotional development The shift from “stop the crying” to “support the feeling” Why embracing emotions at bedtime can actually make sleep easier How to attune to your baby’s needs without feeling overwhelmed When we learn to hold space for our baby’s emotions without panic, everything changes. Parenting becomes less about “fixing” and more about guiding, supporting, and responding with confidence. 🎧 Listen Now & Download Your Free Masterclass If today’s episode resonated with you, I have free masterclass!

Today, we’re diving into something that can truly transform your stress levels, mental well-being, and overall day-to-day experience as a parent—small, meaningful rituals. Life is busier than ever, and as parents, we’re often juggling a million things at once. But what if I told you that incorporating simple, intentional pauses throughout your day could make all the difference? These moments won’t take up much of your time, but they have the power to ground you, reset your nervous system, and bring a sense of calm amidst the chaos. From morning gratitude practices to bedtime rituals with our children, I discuss practical ways to integrate these small yet powerful pauses into your daily routine. You’ll learn how simple moments—like a deep breath before getting out of bed, noticing nature on a morning walk, or sharing a meaningful bedtime gesture with your child—can significantly shift your energy and improve your connection with your family. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The importance of small rituals in reducing stress and fostering mindfulness How rituals provide structure, emotional security, and a sense of control Practical, easy-to-implement ideas for morning, daytime, and bedtime rituals The science behind how these pauses activate our parasympathetic nervous system How to create meaningful connection points with your children through simple gestures If this episode resonated with you, please share it with a fellow parent who might be running on stress and cortisol.

1 Is Your Baby Intense, Sensitive, Easy or Adaptable? Understanding Temperament & What It Means for You 50:01

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبWelcome back, Thrivers! Today, we’re diving into one of the most powerful tools in parenting—understanding temperament. Temperament is the foundation of who we are, shaping how our children experience and react to the world. And the more we understand it, the better we can support them in ways that truly meet their needs. In this episode, I break down the nine temperament traits identified by researchers Thomas and Chess, including adaptability, persistence, sensitivity, and intensity of reaction. I’ll also share real-life stories from clients and my own parenting journey to illustrate how temperament influences everything from transitions to sleep. Plus, we’ll explore how your own temperament as a parent affects the way you interact with your child—because parenting is a two-way street! Whether you’re raising an easygoing dandelion, a sensitive orchid, or a slow-to-warm tulip, this episode will help you navigate the unique needs of your child without limiting their potential. I talked about: What is temperament and why does it matter? The 9 key temperament traits and how they show up in daily life How to work with your child’s temperament instead of against it Why understanding your own temperament is just as important Practical strategies to nurture your child’s growth without boxing them in Tune in, take notes, and get curious about your child’s temperament.

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHello, Thrivers! In today’s episode of Thriving Parenting , I’m diving into a powerful reminder: you can do hard things. As parents, we often hesitate when facing challenges, but just like learning to drive, every difficult moment is an opportunity to grow. I revisit a key topic from episode 41—giving ourselves permission to struggle—and explore new insights on resilience, self-trust, and the science behind doing hard things. I share two inspiring client stories, real-life examples of parents navigating sleep struggles with their babies, and how small, intentional steps made a big difference. We talk about: The role of neuroplasticity in parenting challenges How small, manageable steps lead to lasting change The importance of self-compassion and mindset shifts Breathing techniques to regulate emotions in tough moments Why perfection isn’t the goal—connection, growth, and trust are Parenting isn’t about getting everything right. It’s about showing up, learning, and evolving. If you’re feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t serving you, remember—you have the power to shift, no matter how small. If this episode resonated with you, I’d love for you to share it or leave a review.

1 How to Make Work and Motherhood Work with Loz and Lu of Ready or Not 1:25:37
1:25:37 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب1:25:37
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبIn this episode of Thriving Parenting , I sit down with Loz and Lu from the Ready or Not podcast, and it’s an absolute must-listen for every working mum out there! Loz and Lu are two powerhouse women who have figured out how to make work and motherhood work—well, most of the time—and they’re here to share their real, raw, and relatable stories with us. We kick off the conversation by chatting about how Loz and Lu first met, their friendship, and how the Ready or Not podcast came to life. Spoiler alert: it all started with long walks and voice memos during the pandemic. What I love about their story is how they turned their everyday motherhood struggles and insights into a platform that resonates with so many women. In this episode, we dive deep into: How Loz and Lu balanced starting a podcast with pregnancies, babies, and big career shifts. The emotional and logistical challenges of returning to work after having kids. The reality of juggling sick days, daycare drop-offs, and meetings. How the Ready or Not podcast evolved with spin-offs like Witching Hour and Ask Ready or Not . Loz shares her morning hacks (hello, robe-over-work-clothes trick!) and Lu opens up about redefining thriving as a working mum. We also cover the pressures of being “on” 24/7 and the importance of setting boundaries—both at work and at home. One of my favourite parts of our chat? We talked about the simple joys that kids remember most, like drawing rainbows together, and how those small moments can mean more than grand adventures. Loz’s parting advice is golden: “If you don’t change it, you choose it.” Whether it’s tweaking your morning routine or setting clearer work boundaries, small changes can make a big impact. If you're a mum navigating work, life, and everything in between, you’ll feel seen and heard in this episode. We also highlight helpful resources like Loz and Lu’s guides on returning to work, navigating childcare, and balancing breastfeeding with a career. Let me know your biggest takeaway from this episode—what resonated with you most? And don’t forget to check out Loz and Lu’s podcast Ready or Not for even more honest, supportive conversations about work and motherhood.

1 Sophy and Kai’s Story: Finding Sleep and Support That Transformed Their Family 1:00:33
1:00:33 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب1:00:33
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHappy New Year, Thrivers! 🎉 In this special episode of Thriving Parenting , I sit down with Sophy, a previous client who embarked on the Sleep Godmother Program when her son, Kai, was just five months old. Now at 10 months, Sophy reflects on her experience, sharing the ups, the downs, and the invaluable lessons she gained along the way. Sophy opens up about the challenges of contact napping, the feelings of uncertainty, and how trusting herself and Kai transformed their sleep journey. Together, we explore the realities of seeking change, the discomforts of stepping out of old habits, and the ultimate reward of a more confident and connected parenting experience. Key Highlights: Sophy's Background: Moving from Melbourne to sunny Queensland without family support and navigating life as a first-time mum. The Turning Point: Why Sophy reached out for sleep support and how a family recommendation led her to the Sleep Godmother Program. The Process: Insights into the three-week tailored support program, including daily logs, text support, and regular coaching calls. Breakthrough Moments: Learning to trust Kai’s cues, let go of control, and embrace a holistic approach to sleep, including the impact of nutrition and physical activity. The Result: A transformed relationship with sleep that brought independence, confidence, and trust for both mum and baby. Sophy's Advice: “This too shall pass.” Her reflections on surrendering to the process and recognising that every family’s journey is unique. This heartfelt conversation is a must-listen for any parent navigating the challenges of sleep, seeking support, or simply needing a reminder that they’re not alone. Sophy’s story is a testament to the power of trust, patience, and letting go of self-imposed pressure. About Sophy: Sophy, originally from Melbourne, now calls sunny Queensland home. She moved there with her husband four years ago and is a proud mum to her 10-month-old son, Kai. When consistent contact napping became unsustainable, Sophy turned to Jen's signature Sleep Godmother Program https://sleepthrivegrow.squarespace.com/sleep-godmother-program. This three-week journey offered one-on-one sleep coaching and parent mentoring, providing the support she needed to create positive change. In this episode, Sophy reflects on her experience, sharing the highs and lows of her sleep support journey. Five months on, she discusses the transformation she’s witnessed, offering reassurance and inspiration to other mums who feel overwhelmed or scared to take the next step toward change.

1 Permission to Struggle: Embracing Discomfort in Parenting’s Hardest Moments 50:35

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبWelcome to another episode of Thriving Parenting ! Today, I’m delving into an important yet often avoided topic: Where are we avoiding discomfort in our parenting? How might this avoidance be hindering both our growth and that of our children? I cannot wait to explore this topic with you, as it’s something I encounter often in my coaching and, admittedly, in my own parenting journey. In this episode, I share a personal story about a situation where I avoided discomfort for a while, only to face it head-on with transformative results. I’ll provide a real-life example involving one of my children and discuss common areas where we, as parents, might try to sidestep discomfort. Together, we’ll reflect on whether these avoidance patterns truly serve us—or if they prevent us and our children from thriving. We’ll examine: How avoiding discomfort might stop us from achieving the thriving life we desire for ourselves and our children. Key areas where this avoidance often shows up in parenting, such as managing big emotions, setting boundaries, and allowing mistakes. Practical strategies for embracing discomfort as a necessary part of growth and connection. I also want to share a heartwarming testimonial from Andrea, a client who engaged with my Sleep Godmother program. She described her transformative experience in these words: "Within a few days, our 15-month-old went from waking up 3–8 times a night to sleeping through or waking only once. Jen’s support was a game changer for our family." Andrea’s story reminds me of how often discomfort arises during big changes. It’s relevant to this episode because, in helping families, I often see that transformation begins when we confront discomfort with courage and empathy. Finally, I reflect on my recent parenting experience, where I helped my daughter transition away from thumb-sucking—a deeply ingrained habit. It required navigating her big emotions, setting firm but loving boundaries, and working through my own discomfort as a parent. The result? Watching her proudly declare, “Mum, I’m so proud of myself!” This episode is a reminder that discomfort and growth go hand-in-hand. Whether it’s guiding our children through life’s challenges or embracing our own vulnerabilities, leaning into discomfort fosters resilience, connection, and understanding. Thank you for tuning in!

1 The Hidden Reasons Behind Rocking or Feeding Your Baby or Toddler to Sleep: Awareness Starts Here 42:54
42:54 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب42:54
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبToday, we’re diving deep into a topic that many parents grapple with: why we might still be rocking or feeding our older babies and toddlers to sleep, even now that they’re beyond the newborn stage. Let me just say this upfront: this is a non-judgmental space . No guilt, no shame—just exploration, awareness, and empowerment. If you know me or follow me online, you know I’m all about minimising stress in parenting . My ultimate goal is to help you thrive—whatever that looks like for you. Parenting is not one-size-fits-all, and your emotional well-being matters just as much as your child’s. Stress impacts the quality of your parenting, and what works for you is just as important as what works for your child. This episode is all about bringing awareness to why we do what we do during sleep time and giving ourselves the grace to ask, “Does this still align with me? Does this still feel good?” Because, as we know, nothing changes if nothing changes. Once we’re aware of why we’re doing something, we have the power to decide: do we want to continue, or is it time to pivot? Here’s what we’ll unpack in today’s conversation: Choice vs. Habit: Are we rocking or feeding to sleep because it aligns with our values, or is it something we feel “stuck” doing out of habit or fear? Knowledge Gaps: Understanding how self-soothing and natural sleep processes evolve in babies and toddlers, and how we can nurture this growth while staying responsive. Parenting Mindset: Recognising if control, fear, or societal pressure is playing a role in our sleep routines—and how to break free of those cycles. The Role of Support: Why a lack of support, whether from a partner, community, or resources, can make these routines feel like the only option. Empowerment Through Awareness: How to read your child’s cues more clearly, trust yourself as a parent, and step into a confident, balanced approach to sleep. If today’s episode resonated with you, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Share your insights or questions with me, and let’s keep this conversation going. Until next time, Thrivers—keep growing, keep thriving, and know that you’re doing an amazing job. 🌟 Watch my free empowerment video and in less than 20 mins, gain some healthy Instagram perspective to help you to stay clear and become mindful of the Instagram vortex.

1 The Shared Motherhood Experience and A Hysterectomy at 37 with Rachel Lee. 1:06:58
1:06:58 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب1:06:58
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبWelcome Thrivers! I’m so excited to bring you another guest episode of Thriving Parenting . Today, I’m joined by the incredible Rachel Lee, an award-winning photographer, mom of three boys, and a passionate advocate for embracing the full spectrum of motherhood—the beautiful, challenging, and everything in between. In this episode, Rachel and I dive into her deeply personal journey of motherhood, beginning with the struggles she faced as a first-time mom. She shares how a traumatic birth, sleep deprivation, and breastfeeding challenges made her question whether she was cut out for parenting. Over time, Rachel reframed her mindset, learning to embrace the ups and downs of motherhood and finding joy in the process. Rachel also opens up about her decision to expand her family, her approach to navigating hard seasons, and how her perspective shifted with each child. She candidly discusses her experience with overwhelming health challenges and her transformative decision to undergo a hysterectomy—a choice that profoundly improved her quality of life and parenting journey. We also talk about Rachel’s powerful passion project, The Colors of Motherhood . This photography series captures the raw, unspoken realities of motherhood and pairs them with stories from moms of diverse backgrounds. Rachel shares how this project helps validate the hard emotions of motherhood, fosters connection, and gives voice to feelings often left unspoken. Throughout this episode, Rachel and I reflect on how motherhood reshapes our identities, teaches us about resilience, and challenges us to seek support and let go of perfectionism. In This Episode, We Cover: The emotional rollercoaster of becoming a first-time mom Reframing challenges and embracing the seasons of motherhood How each child brings a unique experience and healing Rachel’s journey through chronic health struggles and the decision to have a hysterectomy The inspiration and stories behind The Colors of Motherhood project Practical self-care tips for busy moms (yes, including how a keep-cup can be life-changing!) Why asking for help is an act of courage, not failure About Rachel Lee: Rachel Lee is a mum of 3 zestful boys, who are 8, 6 and 3 who teach her how to enjoy the moment, even when it’s full body tackles. Her motherhood experiences have been both joyful and challenging and through parenting her boys, she has discovered more about herself than she ever expected. She is also the creative force, founder and photographer behind Scribbly Gum Photography. She is an International award-winning photographer, and most recently, also received the Illawarra Women in Business award for Outstanding Customer Service. Rachel has a deep passion for capturing the essence of motherhood in all it’s forms - motherhood is more than the beautiful moments of love and connection. She has created a Colours of Motherhood Magazine. This is a collection of stories from a diverse group of mums, who have each shared a challenge they have faced in motherhood. Rachel has created an image to represent the feelings each mum faced when navigating their challenge. She created this magazine to try and start to change the narrative of experiencing challenges in motherhood as common, and not have it being equated to personal failings. She hopes that mums reading it will see that they are not alone in their feelings and experiences. Rachel is also a volunteer photographer for Heartfelt, an organisation that provides photography services for families who have experienced stillbirths, premature births or have children with terminal illnesses. For these families, photography can be an important part of their healing process. Rachel has also supported and trained newer photographers starting their volunteer journey with Heartfelt. Prior to working as a photographer, Rachel was working in physical rehabilitation as an exercise physiologist. It was in this work that Rachel learnt about the importance of being able to hold space and provide opportunities for difficult conversations to be had.
