On this week's episode of the Balancing Chaos Podcast, Kelley sits down with the sleep coach she has used with both of her own kids, who has truly changed her life for the better, Chrissy Lawler. Chrissy is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, lover of sleep, and baby sleep consultant. Like Kelley, she lives in Las Vegas with her husband and four daughters, who are, thanks to her, amazing sleepers. She will tell you they weren’t born that way but with what Chrissy teaches, your babies can be amazing sleepers, too!
Chrissy founded The Peaceful Sleeper for two main reasons: she recognized how critically important sleep is in all aspects of life (mentally, physically and emotionally), and she believes that many parents are under-informed or feel unnecessary guilt when it comes to sleep learning and sleep coaching their babies. Chrissy has been practicing therapy for 13 years now, and she slowly started to realize that sleep issues were a common thread among all of her clients. So she got some additional training in advanced sleep medicine and learned that many of the mental health challenges we (and our children) face today stem from inadequate sleep.
Together, Kelley and Chrissy discuss sleep patterns for adults and children, emphasizing the importance of age-appropriate sleep durations for optimal health physically and mentally. Throughout the episode Chrissy shares valuable insights on myths about sleep learning, how to initiate an independent sleep process with your child no matter what their age, how to address sleep regressions, what to do about adult insomnia and how to truly disconnect from our screens for better quality sleep.
So listen in and learn about how to get yourself and your kids to bed and why its so important for all of us!

Kelley takes this episode to explain the role of hormones in weight loss and weight maintenance and the impact hormones have on metabolic health. She explores some of the common hormonal imbalances that may be sabotaging your weight loss journey and tools you can implement with respect to each imbalance that can serve as sustainable solutions. She also discusses the mental and emotional pitfalls we fall into when trying to lose weight and how to proactively help to prevent emotional and overeating. Tune in for strategies to stop grazing and balance blood sugar, overcoming food rules and restriction and to find out what underlying hormonal imbalance may be preventing you from having the results you want!
