PODCAST: The Baby Sleep Connection Podcast - Kim Barthel on Connection, Regulation and Sleep
Kim recently had the pleasure of joining Heather Boyd on The Baby Sleep Connection Podcast for a conversation that wandered through so many of the ideas closest to her heart: how relationships, connection, and co-regulation shape us neurologically, socially, and emotionally.
Kim and Heather talked about:
Understanding behaviour by truly seeing the person in front of us
How our personal histories, and the stories we’ve been told, shape how we react
Interdependence and independence
Interoception as our internal radar
Motherhood and the rewiring of the sensory system
Self-compassion
