COMING BACK IN SPRING 2024!! I’m Beth, a sleep coach, podcaster, author, and bedtime storyteller. I help women love their sleep and prioritize rest and self-care so they can wake up every morning ready to live a life that brings them joy! The people in my life would describe me as always up for a dance party but also the first one most likely ready for bed. I have a book called The Calm & Cozy Book of Sleep and a coaching program at www.sleepcoachbeth.com.

We tend to think of sleep as something that happens to us, but what if we started to think of sleep as a part of us? I believe that you can prepare for a night of sleep by asking for what you need instead of closing your eyes and just hoping for the best.
This episode is my short and sweet rant about a recent idea. I hope it makes sense, and I hope it helps bring you closer to seeing sleep as an ally.

It's one year later, and what a year it's been! In this episode, I answer the question, "How are you, really?"

I used to claim that I couldn’t take short naps, that I had to sleep for at least 40 minutes to feel good, and that’s no longer true. I can nap successfully for a few minutes. I can do the “power nap.” I get it now and I LOVE it. Nothing has changed in my body, I just changed my expectations. BUT I don’t want to discount those who legitimately can’t nap for whatever reason. This episode is for those who would like to prac...
I thought I would do something a little different for this episode. I love telling stories and every once in a while, I’ll be in the mood to tell a story in an Instagram caption. I’ll post a pretty picture of a bed or a plant and then use all the space I’m allowed and hope that my followers don’t get bored and stop reading before the last line.
The stories are about me, and sometimes they’re remotely related to sleep, but ...
I want to take a step back from sleep topics this week and talk about what’s going on in my own life. How I’m handling grief and loss, and the valuable lessons I’ve learned about support - more specifically, how to show support for people you care about without writing and rewriting awkward text messages or baking pies for days that won’t be eaten. When you don't know what to say, or if your words will mean anything, or how you can...
I've recorded a meditation to help you fall asleep after the frustration of an unexpected wake-up. It is based on a few of the mindset concepts I covered in episode 81, Can You Manifest Better Sleep? The goal of this meditation is to help you create your own peaceful back-to-sleep practice, so I've kept it simple, but I've also made it super calm and cozy, as usual.
This meditation has no intro or ads and can be played from st...

Andi was a great guest and shared a lot of great information about finding ways of practicing self-...

In this episode, you’ll hear from four of my sleep expert friends on what you should do if you can’t fall asleep within a certain amount of time. Some say you should get out of bed and do something else, while others say you should stay in bed. In episode 73, I shared my opinion, and now it's time for the other experts to weigh in. Surprisingly, they all had a different answer.
You'll hear from the following sleep experts:
