Do you ever struggle to get your kids to sleep in their own beds? My conversation with Rebecca Linney, author of The Growing Bed, might be just what you need. Rebecca shares her deeply personal story of raising a son who was smaller than average and faced challenges doing things his friends could do. Her book was written to help kids understand children who are neuro diverse, and to show everyone that every child has value.

Rebecca's personal experience with her husband's undiagnosed autism inspired the creation of The Growing Bed. During our chat, we discuss how her son's sleep cycles improved when he was introduced to the concept of the growing bed, and how this idea can foster independence, self-empowerment, empathy, and teach children the consequences of their actions. As adults, it's important for us to prioritize sleep too – something Rebecca learned firsthand while supporting her husband. Don't miss this insightful conversation that's packed with practical tips for improving sleep for the entire family!
