Macall Gordon, M.A. & I discuss our common background of being Highly Sensitive People & raising our HSP - Livewire babies. Check out the resources below.
Does any of this sound like your child?
Big feelings? (Intensity)
Energizer Bunny? (Active)
Serious FOMO? (Alert)
Doesn't miss a thing? (Perceptive)
Never gives up? (Persistent)
Super light sleeper? (Sensory Sensitive)
Not a self-soother? (Reactive)
Goes from zero to sixty? (Intense)
if so, sleep books weren't written for you but this podcast sheds some light on useful information that you need.
From Macall's website:
Because of my experience as a mom of TWO livewires (who never, ever slept as babies), I really, really know what it's like to have a child who is just MORE.
As a researcher and sleep coach, I've worked with so many parents in the same boat and I know they absolutely require a different approach to sleep .
I have sleep strategies that work with temperament—not against it—to get everyone
(yes, you, you exhausted mamas and papas) more sleep. It IS possible.
