If you're like most busy parents, the answer is no. It's perfectly understandable to see why our sleep suffers - families take a lot of time, energy, and effort to nurture and grow. Add in adult responsibilities like working, social commitments, and activities and it’s easy to see why most of us pull back on our sleep when our schedules get full. But, my expert guest is here to tell us why we should be working backwards and start with making sure we’re getting enough sleep. When we’re well rested the other pieces in our lives just fit together better and we get to be the better versions of ourselves we’re striving to be.
