    Baby Sleep: Learning to Trust Yourself More Than the Experts

    Baby sleep. The topic that can make even the most confident parent question everything. In this episode of the Radiant Living Podcast, Nicole opens up about navigating the four- and six-month sleep regressions, traveling with a baby, co-sleeping, nursing to sleep, and the moment her nervous system said “no” to the advice that didn’t feel aligned. She’s joined by Lauren Weber, a baby-led, responsive sleep specialist and founder of Isla-Grace, for a grounded conversation about what baby sleep actually is — developmental, relational, and deeply human. Together, they explore: Whether baby sleep truly needs “fixing” The difference between traditional sleep training and baby-led sleep Nervous system regulation and nighttime responsiveness Western culture’s obsession with independence How to hold structure and intuition at the same time Encouragement for parents who are exhausted but don’t align with cry-it-out methods If you’re rocking, nursing, co-sleeping, or simply wondering if you’re doing it “right,” this episode is your reminder: your baby isn’t broken — and you’re allowed to trust yourself.
