How does confidence grow?

When does it start to feel real?

And what does it look like to build this business alongside motherhood and a full-time career?

In this episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant Podcast, I’m welcoming Valerie back for an honest conversation about what her business looks like one year in.
We talk about:

• How confidence is built through experience, not just training
• How she has refined her process to instill greater confidence in the parents she supports
• How she has successfully built a sleep consulting business while juggling young kids and a demanding full time job

If you’re exploring sleep consulting and wondering, “Could I actually do this?” this episode is for you.

We’re talking about the emotional rollercoaster. The slow months. The self-doubt. The awkward networking. The behind-the-scenes work no one sees.

We also talk about what happens when you stay the course. How confidence grows through action. How preparation pays off. How small, consistent efforts eventually turn into real momentum.

This episode isn’t about overnight success. It’s about grit. It’s about doing it afraid. It’s about preparing like a professional even when you don’t fully feel like one yet.

If you’ve ever wondered what it really looks like to build a sleep consulting business from the ground up, this conversation will give you an honest and encouraging look inside.

In this conversation, we talk about what it really looks like to move from “I’m thinking about it” to actually getting started. Molly shares about pushing through imposter syndrome, finding the courage to put herself out there, and learning to believe in the value she brings to families. We also dig into the mindset behind early business growth and the personal growth that happens when you begin to believe in the possibility of your own success.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, behind, or unsure whether you’re ready to get started, this episode will remind you that confidence is built in motion and that you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin.

Phyllis shares what it’s looked like to start over professionally, how she leaned on decades of experience with children and families, and what she’s learned in her first year of business. We talk about the steep learning curve of entrepreneurship and how she’s grown by leaning into her strengths instead of forcing herself to market like everyone else.

You’ll hear how she’s built her business largely through in-person connections, local partnerships, and referrals, and why that approach has worked so well for her. It’s a really encouraging example of how experience, warmth, and consistency can carry you far in this work.

Supporting parents through sleep challenges is not just about wake windows and schedules. It is about holding space for big feelings, uncertainty, exhaustion, and sometimes even grief and anxiety. And as sleep consultants, we have to learn how to stay steady in the middle of all of that.

I am joined by CPSM grad Ali Manning, a pediatric sleep consultant who specializes in gradual and parent present approaches for families who feel nervous about sleep training. Ali shares how her own journey into sleep consulting shaped the way she supports parents today, and how her coaching style has evolved over the past three years in business.

In this episode, we dive into the concept of “sturdy coaching.” We talk about what it really means to hold space for parents’ emotions without absorbing them, how to avoid jumping in to fix every feeling, and why our confidence and calm presence can make all the difference for the families we serve.

Ali also opens up about the learning curve she experienced early on, the moments that pushed her to grow, and the mindset shifts that helped her stop taking client struggles personally. If you have ever felt emotionally drained by your work with families or questioned whether you are doing enough, this conversation will feel both validating and grounding.

Whether you are brand new to sleep consulting or years into your business, this episode is a powerful reminder that being a great coach is not about eliminating discomfort. It is about learning how to remain confident and sturdy while guiding families through it.

So often, I see people finish their training and feel like they need to pause. They wait to feel more confident, more experienced, or more “ready” before putting themselves out there. But momentum doesn’t come from waiting. It comes from taking action.

My guest today is Alyssa, a recent graduate of the Center for Pediatric Sleep Management who took that idea seriously from the very beginning. She moved forward with intention, focused on progress over perfection, and built early momentum in her business.

In this conversation, we’re talking about the mindset required to start strong, the moves she made to create traction early on, and why believing in what you’re building matters just as much as the strategy behind it.

If you’re at the beginning of your journey or wondering how to kick your business into high gear, this episode will give you a lot to think about.

I share how I’ve approached my career with the belief that feeling stuck is never the end of the story, why I walked away from a demanding role once it no longer aligned with motherhood, and how building a business around my life changed everything.

In this episode, I explore:
• Why feeling stuck is often about comfort, not lack of options
• What it really looks like to design work around your life instead of the other way around
• How choosing flexibility and autonomy changed the way I work, parent, and live my life.

Why? Because email marketing is one of the most underused tools I see in the sleep consulting space, and it’s also one of the most powerful when it’s done well.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why email marketing matters even if your list is small
• Why sounding like yourself is more important than sounding polished
• How consistency builds trust, authority, and referrals over time

One of the things I loved most about this conversation is how much we focused on clarity and voice. You don’t need to sound like a marketer. You don’t need fancy funnels. You need to communicate clearly, and articulate your value.

If you’ve been sitting on an email list without actually putting it to use, or you’ve been overthinking what to say and when to say it, this episode will provide the jumpstart to get you going.

But I remember exactly how she made me feel.

This mom was the first person who ever paid me to support her family as a certified sleep consultant. Her six year old had been bedsharing for years, struggled with separation anxiety, and had never learned how to fall asleep independently.

I had the training. I had the certification.
What I didn’t have was experience with big kids or confidence that came from doing the work.

And yet, I showed up. I leaned on what I knew. I coached her with intention. And together, we helped her daughter gain independence, confidence, and better sleep.

What stayed with me all these years later is not the method we used or how long it took. It’s the way that first client trusted me. The way she valued my guidance. The way that experience made me realize, “I can do this.”

This episode is for anyone who feels like they don’t know enough yet.
For anyone staring at their first client thinking, “What if I mess this up?”
For anyone learning something new and wishing confidence would arrive first.

It doesn’t.

Confidence is built by doing the work, not before it.

If you are committed to learning, showing up fully, and supporting families with care and professionalism, you will figure it out. Every single time.

As we wrap up 2025 and look ahead to 2026, we focused this conversation on goal setting and intention setting for service-based business owners. We talked about where to start when goals feel overwhelming, how to think about money without guilt, and why clarity and consistency matter more than chasing every strategy you see online.

This episode is especially relevant for sleep consultants who are wanting their goals to support both their income and their lifestyle. Alison shares practical ways to turn intentions into action, stay focused on what actually works, and tune out the noise that can lead to comparison and burnout.

If you’re heading into the new year thinking about how you want your business and your life to feel, you’re going to love this conversation!

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why sleep consulting is the perfect complement to postpartum care
• How sustainable systems can prevent burnout for doulas and sleep consultants
• What expanding your services can mean for both your income and your energy

The truth is, postpartum care often ends right when families need continued guidance the most. Sleep consulting fills that gap. It extends support beyond the newborn phase, strengthens relationships, and positions you as a long term resource instead of a short term solution.

If you are a doula or newborn care specialist thinking about how to grow, diversify, or prevent burnout in your business… this episode will give you a lot to think about.

This week on the podcast, I’m reflecting on the quieter parts of entrepreneurship — the moments that don’t make the highlight reel, but absolutely shape the way I live and work.

The ability to shift my schedule when life calls for it…

To be present for my family without sacrificing momentum…

To rest when my body needs it…

And to run a thriving business from anywhere.

These are the freedoms I’m most grateful for — and they’re the reason I built my business the way I did.

Inside this episode, I'm sharing:
• What true flexibility looks like as an entrepreneur
• How to build a business that bends around your life
• The small, everyday moments that matter most
• And real stories of CPSM grads who have created this same freedom for themselves

If you’re craving more control over your time, your energy, or your day-to-day life… I hope this episode gives you the encouragement you need to go after it.

Ronna specializes in helping people build simple, sustainable systems so they can manage their days with more intention and less stress. She focuses on awareness, habits, and clarity rather than trying to cram more into an already full schedule. Her approach is all about creating routines that support your life instead of adding pressure to it.

In our conversation, we talk about where to begin when everything feels important, how to create systems that actually work for you, and what it looks like to build your business in a way that feels steady and sustainable. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, distracted, or unsure how to prioritize, this episode will give you clarity and a practical path forward.

I was inspired to record this conversation with Darcy after I came across a post she shared online that said:“Being a doula is heart-centered work, but it shouldn’t cost you your health, family time, or financial stability.”

That message stopped me in my tracks because I see it all the time — doulas who adore their work but are exhausted by the long hours and the unpredictable on-call lifestyle.

In this conversation, Darcy explains why the traditional, in-person-only model just isn’t sustainable long term, and how her Hybrid Doula Business Model is helping doulas earn more, work less, and find balance again.

We discussed:

✨ Why only taking in-person clients can lead to burnout
✨ How sleep consulting fits perfectly into the hybrid business model for doulas
✨ The mindset shifts needed to create more freedom and stability
✨ Darcy’s best advice for doulas who want to make a change

If you’ve been looking for a way to continue supporting families while creating a bit more balance and freedom in your work, you’ll really enjoy this episode.

In this week’s episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, I’m joined by Sarah, a former client who came to me wanting a very gradual and parent-present approach. She was feeling cautious about making changes, and wanted to be sure her baby always felt supported and secure.

What unfolded was a powerful example of how blending empathy with accountability can lead to massive results. We simplified the process, made small yet sustainable changes, and celebrated every win along the way. Within two weeks, her baby was sleeping independently, and Sarah felt calm, confident, and proud of what we had accomplished together.

A lot can change in a year. Sid is now 13, a little older and a lot funnier, and I’ve grown another year in my business. Together, we thought it would be fun to revisit the conversation and share how life has evolved for both of us.

In this episode, Sid shares his perspective on what it’s like having a mom who works from home, how my flexible schedule impacts our family life, and some of the perks (and quirks) that come along with having a sleep consultant mom. We also talk about travel, freedom, and what it really means to build a business that allows me to show up as both a mom and an entrepreneur.

If you’ve ever wondered what this career looks like from a family’s point of view, or you’re thinking about becoming a sleep consultant yourself, this conversation will give you an honest, lighthearted peek behind the curtain.

Work has taken a bit of a back seat, but it hasn’t stopped. I’ve still been supporting families, checking in with CPSM students, and keeping things moving, just in a way that fits this season of life.

This is exactly why I built my business the way I did. It gives me the freedom to lean into family when I need to and the flexibility to pick things back up when life settles down.

That’s what this week’s podcast episode is all about. If you’ve ever dreamed of building a business that bends with your life instead of competing with it, I think this one will really resonate.

With a clear plan, lots of role play, and a fun technique called the Kissing Game, Mia quickly adjusted to her new sleep rules. Within days she was falling asleep confidently and independently, waiting for her OK-to-Wake clock, and making her parents proud.

This case is a great reminder that toddlers are often more capable than we give them credit for. With a heavy dose of communication and follow through, even the toughest toddler sleep struggles can turn into big wins.

No personal welcome. No opportunity to build a relationship with the course creator. And I’ve found the same to be true in other programs I’ve joined over the years.

Center for Pediatric Sleep Management is different. From the very beginning, my goal has been for every student to feel seen, heard, and supported. CPSM was built on connection, and that same value guides the way I run my business every day.

In this episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, I’m sharing why connection matters so much, not just in online education, but in any business. Parents don’t just want a plan. They want you.

This episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast is a full recap of an unforgettable weekend spent with an incredible group of sleep consultants and parenting professionals.

We gathered at the beautiful Halcyon Hotel in Cherry Creek for three days of learning, connection, and genuine community. From the moment everyone arrived, there was this unmistakable energy—like old friends meeting for the first time in person.

Inside this episode, my co-host Kerri and I share all the details: the gorgeous setting, the relaxed-yet-professional vibe, the details of the Friday night welcome reception, Saturday’s inspiring trainings and workshops, and the countless meaningful conversations that happened in between.

We also talk about why creating an in-person space for our community mattered so much to us, and why we’re already planning for next year.

If you were there with us, we hope this episode brings back all the best memories. And if you’re thinking about joining us next time—consider this your sneak peek at what makes the Nurture Nap Network retreat so special.

It’s an honest question. But I think what people are really asking is, “Will I be successful if I enroll?”

Here’s the truth: In any field—law, medicine, coaching, sleep consulting—many people don’t reach the level of success they want. It’s not because the training isn’t effective. It’s because most people don’t truly commit to their own success.

The good news? That’s actually an opportunity for you. If you’re willing to be the exception—to take responsibility, to learn deeply, to show up consistently, and to refuse to quit—you can absolutely succeed in this industry.

In this episode, I share why success isn’t guaranteed but is absolutely achievable. We talk about the difference between simply finishing a program and actually using what you learn to build a sustainable business.

If you’re considering this path—or if you’re already on it but wondering how to reach the next level—I think you’ll find this conversation both honest and motivating.

I talk about what it felt like to watch one child head off to camp while the other had to stay behind—and how heartbreaking that was for both of us. But I also share the unexpected gratitude I felt in the middle of it all: the ability to just be there for her without taking time off or asking permission.

Because of my work as a sleep consultant, I could care for Ivy while still supporting my clients. It wasn’t easy, but it was possible—and that flexibility is something I don’t take for granted.

If you’ve ever wondered what “freedom” really looks like when you run your own business, this episode is for you. It’s about the messy, real-life moments that remind us why we chose this path in the first place.

I invited my husband, Jonathan, onto the podcast to share his perspective — from the moment I first said, “I think I want to start a business,” to what it’s been like watching that business grow into something bigger than either of us expected.

On today’s episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, I’m joined by social media business coach and strategist Allison Henderson, who has spent the past six years coaching hundreds of sleep consultants through the very real fear of selling.

We’re diving into the mindset blocks that hold people back — like the fear of looking stupid, being annoying, or not knowing what to say — and how to actually move past them so you can show up confidently, connect with families, and grow your business.

Allison is sharing what the most successful sleep consultants do differently, how to reframe selling so it feels like helping (not pushing), and practical tips for making offers in a way that feels aligned and authentic.

If you’ve ever avoided posting on social media, second-guessed your content, or struggled to connect with your ideal client — this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you’re looking for!

As I was driving to my weekly tennis lesson, I realized I didn’t have an episode planned for next week, and yet skipping it wasn’t an option. I’ve committed to showing up on this podcast every single Tuesday because consistency is something I deeply value—not just in podcasting, but in business and in life.

This episode is a reminder that:
- You don’t need ideal circumstances to make progress
- Consistency is what separates those who struggle from those who thrive
- Confidence comes through practice—not perfection
- Building a business means deciding to show up, even when it’s inconvenient

Whether you’re already a sleep consultant or considering becoming one, this episode will encourage you to think about how you’re showing up in your own business—and what might change if you fully committed.

- How we as sleep consultants can work to release some of the emotional load that we carry on behalf of our clients
- That humanizing the experience of sleep and mothering in a more realistic frame for life leads to a more positive and successful experience for both parents and sleep consultants
- The need for boundaries in our businesses. And that it’s ok to give ourselves grace if it feels difficult to set those boundaries in the very beginning. It takes time!

Two years ago, after having a traumatic birth experience, an undiagnosed tongue-tie, challenges with nursing leading to 14 months of exclusive pumping, coupled with lack of support and sleepless nights, Crystal was quickly spiraling into physical exhaustion and mild postpartum depression. She knew something needed to change and eventually sleep trained her daughter.  It completely transformed her life and mental health and later compelled her to pursue a certification in sleep consulting   

With a background enriched by 13 years in education, 4 years as the Spanish-speaking operations manager of a school bus company, a former nanny and the firsthand experience of being a mom, she understands the many challenges that come with becoming a parent for the first time and how that experience is greatly affected by littles who aren't sleeping well. Crystal graduated from CPSM in February of 2024 and is passionate about helping families achieve sleep for their littles so that mental and physical rest can be achieved by all, because support shouldn't end at birth.  Rest is within reach!

On this episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast Crystal shares:
- What it’s like to juggle growing a sleep consulting business while caring for a toddler at home
- Her WHY for getting into this line of work
- Who her ideal client is, and how she plans to connect with those who are in need of her support!
