having that mentality of my job is not to manipulate and
shape behavior.
My job is to go under the surface and understand and figure out what developmental skill my child's working on.
How can I be their partner and and help them and s be there as their assistant to give them the little boost that they need at every level.
And I'm I'm Heather Turge and I'm here, as you said, on the sunny West Coast.
And I'm actually from New York as well, but I'm out here.
Um, Julie and I met through um the Mommy and Me program in Los Angeles, and we have
worked with parents on sleep and also communication, setting limits with empathy for years now together and we wrote our first book, The Happy Sleeper, four years ago now.
So see a lot of parents around sleep with baby to school age kids.
And then more recently, our book Now Say This, which is the ALP model of communication.
So a lot of our clients are also
you know, parents struggling with difficult moments and behaviors and um family communication.
So our practices are on both coasts, but we also work with parents all over the world, you know, via Skype and that kind of thing.
Yeah, sleep is a real it's a it's a real dilemma and it's a real crisis moment for a lot of parents at different ages for different reasons.
So yeah, it's a it's a satisfying line of work because it's very very fixable.
Sleep is natural.
So
You know, babies want to sleep and kids want to sleep, so that's good.
I think we see um equal parts of both and sometimes it's one person in the couple who's very good at being warm and understanding and and nurturing and and has a hard time setting limits and holding limits and feels kind of walked all over.
And you know, maybe both in the couple feel that way.
