So many have asked me why I became a sleep coach, so I decided to talk about that today. I like many of you, one day became a mother. Life as I knew it completely changed. This little person who I absolutely adored became my number one priority and my life began to center around her. I always wondered why the most important job in the world...becoming a parent...never required a license, an exam or even came with a manual on how to get started. These little people are born and we are on our way home 48 hours later. Most families have no idea what they are in for. Sleep deprivation by far was the number one hardest adjustment for me as a mom. I remember being so tired that I felt nauseous. I wasn't sure when this "phase" was going to end or how to get past it. I started doing research. I checked out books. I read them. I scoured the internet. I selected an approach and tried it out. I had great success. I started sharing with my friends what I had learned and they in turn were trying with their children. Years went by. I had two more children. I became certified to teach swimming lessons and I was teaching for Florida Virtual School. Kim West (The Sleep Lady) offered the training program and I thought how perfect for me. I knew I would love it and it would be so natural for me. I jumped on the opportunity. I do indeed love it and it is very natural for me! I love how I have the gift to turn lives around for children and families. I love the reward and satisfaction I feel when my families are successful. I love helping others. I just love it period...all of it. My job is to not only help families come up with a plan that they believe in, but also support them through the ups and downs of sleep coaching. I am fulfilled. I am SO happy. Anybody that knows me will tell you this is where I am meant to be and I'm looking forward to serving many families in Florida and the surrounding areas in the future. So, there you go. That is why I became a sleep coach!
