Self-Care Day Throwback: How Moms Can Take Back Control of Their Sleep

We’re turning back the clock for Self Care Day with a special episode with Rebekka Wall to find out how moms (and dads) can sleep better. Rebekka is a certified adult sleep consultant who has helped hundreds of parents get a better night’s sleep.

In this episode, host Lalaina Rabary sits down with Rebekka to find out why restful sleep is often out of reach for moms and what can actually help. Together, they discuss the cultural pressures that frame rest as selfish or unproductive, the impact of hypervigilance and anxiety on sleep, and why rest isn’t a luxury but a biological necessity.

Rebekka introduces her unique "Triangle Model" for identifying the root causes of sleep struggles, ranging from overlooked sleep hygiene habits to deeper emotional patterns. You’ll get practical, mom-friendly tools to build better routines, create restorative pauses in your day, and balance rest with the demands of parenting and partnership.

Learn how to calm your nervous system, use anchor statements and bedtime rituals, and finally get the rest your body and mind deserve.
