One of the biggest stressors for parents is helping their child get to sleep and stay asleep. Bedtime can be a real battle for parents at times and todayâs guest is here to help alleviate that by looking for root causes and also how you parents can help relieve your sleep issues as well. When the whole family sleeps well, things go better.
In this episode, she'll talk about sleep apnea - yes, even for kids - which includes snoring, and mouthbreathing, and how sleep is not a "passive process" like we might think, involving hormones, the immune system and even memories that are processed while we sleep.
Our sleep is affected by nutrition such as iron deficiencies and our sleep hygiene like how dark, cool and noise-free the room is for sleeping.
And one that parents are certainly guilty of - screentime before bed. Dr. Brown says we need to stop that at least 60 minutes before bed and that includes TV and tablets too.
Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown is a board-certified pediatrician with extensive experience working with children who suffer from a range of sleep issues, including insomnia, sleep apnea, and behavioral sleep disorders. Her holistic and compassionate approach to care sets her apart as a trusted expert in her field.
Dr. Afolabi-Brown earned her medical degree from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, one of Africa's premier institutions for medical education. She completed her pediatrics residency at the Childrenâs Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), which is renowned globally for its cutting-edge pediatric care and training programs. Subsequently, she pursued a fellowship in sleep medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, where she gained specialized expertise in diagnosing and treating sleep disorders in children.
I know youâre going to get a ton of great value out of this episode so please enjoy the show.
Beyond her clinical work, Dr. Afolabi-Brown is an advocate for sleep health education. She actively raises awareness about the importance of sleep through various platforms, including community outreach, public speaking engagements, and digital media. Her mission is to empower parents and caregivers with the knowledge and tools they need to create healthy sleep habits for their children.
Dr. Afolabi-Brown is also active in several medical associations, including the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and the Society of Behavioral Sleep Medicine. Her contributions to these organizations include advancing research, developing best practices, and sharing insights on sleep interventions. She has also collaborated on scholarly publications and presented at national and international conferences, demonstrating her commitment to the growth and development of her field.

"It was clear to me that parents, especially moms, weren't opposed to talking to their kids about p*rn*graphy. Or listening to me talk about it. But they wanted guidance, resources, help and hope. They wanted someone on their team. I was ready to step up and be that person." -- Greta Eskridge
This episode is tough but absolutely essential listening for parents of kids of all ages. The unfortunate reality is that our kids will be exposed to horrible things that we don't want them to see and we need to know what to do.
Author, speaking, podcaster and mom Greta Eskridge wants you to be prepared BEFORE it happens so you'll know how to react and what to say when confronted by this inevitable topic. Her newest book is called It's Time to Talk to Your Kids About Porn: A Parent's Guide to Helping Children and Teens Develop Sexual Integrity, out now from Nelson Books, HarperCollins Christian Publishing, March 4, 2025.
This must-have book equips parents to have age-appropriate, honest and hope-filled conversations about pornography with kids of any age so that they can help their children develop lifelong sexual integrity. In this book, Eskridge helps parents to navigate those tough conversations and connect with their children to create a safe space for conversation while tackling the toughest topics with confidence.
About the Author: Greta Eskridge is a second-generation homeschooling mom to four and wife of twenty-six years to Aaron. She is passionate about creating connection, preserving childhood and chasing adventure. Along with loving nature, books and coffee, Greta is the host of the popular Greta Eskridge Podcast, the author of Adventuring Together and 100 Days of Adventure, and she travels the country as a speaker, encouraging families to create connection in a disconnected world. Eskridge lives in sunny southern California with her artist husband, Aaron, and their four kids â one young adult and three teens

Today we're going to learn about a "miracle molecule" called Nitric Oxide and why it is vital for our health - as well as how to prevent losing it from your body - in our interview with Dr Nathan S Bryan.
Dr Bryan's new book The Secret of Nitric Oxide Bringing the Science to Life is now available and represents his life's work in researching and educating about nitric oxide.
As we age, nitric oxide production decreases due to a breakdown in an enzyme in our blood vessels. Thatâs significant, because loss of nitric oxide production is recognized as the earliest event in the onset and progression of most if not all chronic diseases, including the number 1 killer of men and women worldwide, cardiovascular disease. Poor blood flow is also linked to conditions like reduced cognitive function and impotency.
In this interview youâll learn:
What is nitric oxide? Why is it important that we maintain healthy levels in or body? How can we maintain healthy levels of nitric oxide in our body? Where can people go for more information?About Author, Nathan S. Bryan, Ph.D.: Dr. Nathan S. Bryan is an author and biomedical scientist of nitric oxide. He earned his undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from the University of Texas at Austin and his doctoral degree from Louisiana State University School of Medicine in Shreveport.
He pursued his post-doctoral training as a Kirschstein Fellow at Boston University School of Medicine in the Whitaker Cardiovascular Institute. After a two-year post-doctoral fellowship, Dr. Bryan joined the faculty at the University of Texas Health Science Center.
During his tenure as faculty and independent investigator at UT, his research focused on drug discovery through screening natural product libraries for active compounds. His nine years at UT led to several discoveries which have resulted in over a dozen issued US and international patents and many more pending worldwide.

Putting a bear to bed may sound impossible to most people for for Dr. Susan Eirich, it's all part of the rythym of life at Earthfire Institute and illustrates how we can all connect.
This story, along with the story of a wolf who took a cab, the energy healing of two of their animals and the simple pleasure a little snail named Speedy provided her are all part of "the magic that is all around us" that Susan shares in this very special episode for anyone who feels that tug to slow down and make stronger connections with their people, their pets, others around them and the beauty of nature that we're surrounded by, no matter where you live.
"There is wonder absolutely everywhere," she says.
Some of the things she helps everyone understand in this episode include Susan's Ways to Slow Down to Tune In:
1: Harness the Healing Power of Nature. Slowing down allows us to reconnect with our bodies and minds, tapping into the natural worldâs ability to calm, nourish, and support healthy development. Whether itâs taking a slow, mindful walk or simply observing the rhythms of nature, this connection can have profound benefits for mental and physical well-being.
2: Develop Meaningful Connections with the Environment. Returning to a special spot in natureâwhether itâs a tree, a pond, or a quiet creeksideâoffers solace and a sense of companionship. These regular visits deepen our bond with the environment and provide mental clarity. Visiting sanctuaries and wildlife preserves provides another opportunity to engage with nature while learning about and appreciating the creatures that share our planet.
3: Foster Growth and Joy with Small, Everyday Interactions. Susan suggests simple ways to integrate nature into daily life, such as starting a small garden or welcoming a pet or plant into your home. Even small actions, such as starting a garden or welcoming a pet or plant, can bring joy and meaning. Susanâs own experience of finding delight in the simple movements of a snail in her goldfish bowl exemplifies how everyday interactions with nature, no matter how modest, can spark inspiration and a sense of wonder.
About Susan B. Eirich
Susan B. Eirich, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist, biologist, and author of âWhispers from the Wild: An Invitation,â a collection of startling stories demonstrating why deeply understanding wild animals can heal the trauma that humans, animals, and our Earth are currently experiencing.
Dr. Eirich has taught psychology at universities around the world, worked in maximum-security prisons, developed a university counseling center, directed a Nature Conservancy Preserve and lived in remote corners of Nepal, the Mid- and Far East, the Northwest Territories and the Amazon rainforest. She believes it is urgent to inspire the global community to expand wildlife corridors in a network throughout the continents, and works to preserve her local Yellowstone to Yukon wildlife corridor, the last intact wildlife mountain corridor in the world.

Shirley Gutkowski is a grandma of three, mom of five and wife of going on 50 years! She has all her own hair, stopped coloring it a year ago and is the owner of Primal Air a company that helps people get their face to work right.
She is also the author of the first pre parenting book focused on development of the face. More Than a Kissing Spot: Your New Baby's Face is a simple and deep dive into all the things people need to know about the mouth and tongue before they are exhausted parents. www.primalair.com/kissing-spot
Biologists say that human babies are born about seven months earÂly as compared to other mammals. Human babies are born earÂlier because of their head size; theyâd never make it out at all if they lived in the womb for 16 months. Because of this early exit babies are extremely defenseless. All they have is their cuteness and crying to do everything necessary to get their needs met. Itâs up to the âhard wiringâ of maternal instinct to take over for the rest, including making sure the baby is breathing through their nose.
Shirley's book, More than a Kissing Spot: Your New Babyâs Face is the most important child development book written to date. Written for soon to be parents, it takes the mystery out of one of the most unusual organs in body, the tongue. The tongue is the most important driver of facial development, and rarely mentioned in discussions of the face.

As parents, we've all lost our patience before with our kids - we let a scream go, or yelled a little too loud, right? I know I have...and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.
Bella Lucia Childrenâs Book Series, and âHealthy Feelingsâ Crusader, Kristina Lucia Pezza is on a mission to show/ help parents set up with children (and parents) the importance of embracing and working through your feelings so that we can set kids up with confidence and self-awareness. This includes helping parents find the space and strength to have patience with their children.
In this episode, Kristina helps shed some light on how to keep your patience through examples from her own life and shows how important this can be for our childrens' fragile sense of self.
Kristina experienced trauma as a child, which she discusses in the episode, and through working the 12 steps of Adult Children of Alcoholics, she knows firsthand how vital it is to have the tools to communicate your feelings in order to be heard in an effective way. Thatâs why she is teaching these important concepts through the main character of her childrenâs book.
In each story, Bella Elephant gives people the space to feel their feelings, she learns an important life lesson, and the reader witnesses how her growth has a wonderful ripple effect on her community. Currently, there are 8 titles in the series with a plan for a total of 12.
Check out her website now for a free Valentine's Day printable she designed!
Kristina is an award winning and bestselling author, creator, and artist who ignites the imaginations of children and their parents through her limited edition animals and touching storybooks. Her humble beginnings in a small farm town (there was only one traffic light!) sparked her creativity at a young age and her adopted home of New York City keeps her inspired daily.
Curiously Curated Creations of Kristina features a magical array of warm, cuddly and comforting creatures along with storybooks that help parents and kids improve their communication and deepen their relationships.

How many times have you either said or heard someone say, "I'm not creative." Many people think you are either creative or you're not but, as we'll learn from Director at Crayola Education Cheri Sturman, that is officially a MYTH - listen to this episode and learn why.
Cheri talks about so many amazing ways to find creativity in every day life and incorporate this into your life and the life of your child.
Cheri Sterman, Director at Crayola Education, is at the helm of Crayolaâs Creativity Week â a free program focused on celebrating creativity through educational content that more than 4.5 million students and approximately 285,000 educators in the U.S. participated in last year alone.
This year, Creativity Week runs January 27th through February 2nd. Register for free here Also use the hashtag #crayolacreativityweek when you post your child's work on social media for a chance at FABULOUS prizes including art supplies, telescopes and even a $5,000 college fund scholarship.
With her extensive background in child development, education, and the creative process, Cheri is uniquely positioned to discuss the complex nature of creativity and its critical role in fostering essential 21st-century skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, and emotional intelligence.
During this interview Cheri explores:
Redefining Creativity: How Crayola is broadening the definition of creativity to encompass cognitive skills, emotional development, and problem-solving. Empowering Parents: Practical tips for parents to integrate creative moments into daily life and nurture creativity beyond traditional arts and crafts and learn how parents can access free resources through Crayolaâs Creativity Week. Challenging Myths About Creativity: Debunking the myth that creativity is an innate trait reserved for a select few and demonstrating how it can be cultivated in every child. Creativity and the Future: Discussing how fostering creativity equips children to tackle future challenges by developing flexible thinking and innovative problem-solving skills.Here are 5 Simple Creative Moments You Can Create At Home that don't cost anything and don't take very much time:
1) Take a nature walk, even just down your block, and notice the shapes, colors and sounds.
2) Use travel time in new ways - when you're stuck in traffic or on a road trip, make up a funny story or add new lyrics to a familiar song.
3) If you have a project you need to work on, give the kids some blankets and cardboard boxes and tell them to build a fort or an obstacle course and then once you finish your project, go play in the fort or go through the course with your kids.
4) Give the kids fabric scraps and pillow cases and let them make costumes and make up a play
5) Break down a cardboard box or two and let them use them to make new things - like a bridge across a puddle or a ramp for their toy cars.
Just enjoy the moments and let your kids think freely - you'll be glad you did and you'll be amazed at what you learn!

Hosting young children during the holidays can create some risks around the house you might not think of. Creating a safe, functional home, especially in areas like the laundry room, kitchen, medicine cabinet, and bedrooms, is essential for the whole family.
Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/VsVRA-qIWTg
As an example, a survey by the American Cleaning Institute, from 2024, showed that 36% of Americans use decorative jars or containers to enhance their laundry space, a trend made popular on social media. However, putting products into clear jars or containers for aesthetic purposes is one way you may be unintentionally putting children at risk.
In this mini episode, Brian Sansoni, Senior Vice President, Communications, Outreach and Membership at the American Cleaning Institute and Torine Creppy, President of Safe Kids Worldwide show us how to help parents create safe and child-friendly spaces without sacrificing aesthetics.
Both highlight the importance of proper use of cleaning products and the dos and don'ts of storing them, additional items to keep an eye out for throughout the home and areas to prioritize safety. Whether youâre organizing, revamping, or preparing to bring a new baby home, ACI and Safe Kids have the resources, including a new safety guide, to help get your home in tip-top safety shape without scarifying style.
About American Cleaning Institute: ACI is a non-profit organization. Established in 1926, ACI is dedicated to advancing public understanding of the safety and benefits of cleaning products, and protecting the ability of its members to formulate products that best meet consumer needs. ACI serves both its members and the public by developing and sharing information about industry products with the technical community, policy makers, childcare and health professionals, educators, media and consumers. Find them at https://www.cleaninginstitute.org/
About Safe Kids Worldwide: Safe Kids WorldwideÂź is a nonprofit organization working to reduce unintentional injuries to children ages 0-14 and build equitable and sustainable systems that support injury prevention. Most people are surprised to learn preventable injuries are the number one cause of death to children in the United States.
Safe Kids works with strategic partners and an extensive network of more than 400 coalitions in the U.S. to reduce traffic injuries, drownings, sleep-related deaths, falls, burns, poisonings, and more. We achieve this work through a public health approach that includes research, interventions to educate and raise awareness, safety device distribution, and advocacy at the federal, state, and local levels. Safe Kids also supports a worldwide alliance of like-minded organizations in more than 20 countries. Find them at https://www.safekids.org/

How would you feel if your child WANTED to go to school over the summer or was sad when school was closed for a snow day?
Mimosa Jones Tunney speaks to the Teaching Your Toddler show about the curriculum that is inspiring kids across the country to WANT to learn, who love school and who get sad for snow days and summer break. Can you imagine?
Mimosa is a writer, researcher and the founder of both the American Emergent Curriculum and The School House, a private elementary school in New York. Sheâs also a former political speech and Hollywood television writer as well as an avid philanthropist.
She's also our favorite kind of guest - an activated mom! She saw the deficiency in public education where schools "dumb down" kids and "teach to the test" instead of what she calls "smart up" the kids and teaching to their interests and passions that keeps them loving learning throughout their school life.
Over 300,000 teachers per year leave the profession, often out of frutration. The curriculum The School House offers can be used by homeschoolers, "micro-schools"/learning pods as well as brick and mortar schools. This curriculum is so inspiring for kids and so successful, it could inspire those teachers back to the classroom.
So far, communities using this curriculum have appeared in Texas and Florida, and continue to spread across the country. The school is private and continues to beat the state test scores, without ever teaching to the test, because the kids LOVE learning.
Mimosa also noted that in their school, they do not allow politics or gossip from the teachers so that everyone feels welcomed and the school can concentrate on learning. It's truly a novel approach that addresses children's learning stages and their areas of interest.
This approach also often alleviates or eliminates typicial learning challenges that children display due to the antiquated approach most typical public schools take for learning.
