Mom Burnout & Sleep Training: Why It's Not Really About Sleep

Everyone warns you about sleepless nights. Nobody warns you about what the sleep deprivation actually does to you - your confidence, your sense of self, your ability to function at work, your relationship with your own body.
In this episode, Dr Remi is joined by Temi, founder of Gentle Baby Sleep Help, a sleep and postnatal wellbeing consultant who works with families globally. Temi shares her own experience of struggling with sleep deprivation as a first-time mum - and how resolving it changed everything.
They talk about:
• Why so many mothers push through instead of asking for help
• The link between sleep deprivation and loss of identity (and matrescence)
• What gentle sleep support actually looks like — and why "no-cry" promises are a red flag
• The shame around sleep training, and how to let it go
• What happens to mothers when they go back to work still exhausted
• The unregulated postnatal wellness space — and how to navigate it safely
• Loneliness, community, and why representation in this space matters
Whether your baby is a newborn or your toddler is still finding their way into your bed at 3am, this episode is for you.
