In this episode of 30 Minutes of PINK, Nadin talks with Gelsomina Galdieri, a family sleep educator, about the truth behind motherhood and exhaustion — the part no one warns women about.

They unpack the unrealistic expectations around baby sleep, why mothers feel constant guilt and pressure, and how hypervigilance can follow women long after the newborn stage.

Gelsomina shares what actually works when it comes to sleep, why personalized plans are more effective than strict “sleep training,” and how community and communication can transform the whole parenting experience.

✨ Highlights:
• Why tiredness became a “badge of honor” in motherhood
• Realistic expectations for baby and toddler sleep
• Personalized vs one-size-fits-all sleep plans
• How communication prevents resentment between partners
• Hypervigilance, insomnia, and why mothers can’t switch off
• Why rest is not a luxury but a biological need
• The role of community support in maternal wellbeing

🎧 Listen if you’ve ever thought:
“I’m exhausted, but I’m supposed to handle it.”
“Something must be wrong — everyone else looks like they’re coping.”
“I just want sleep without guilt.”

Because motherhood is not meant to be survived alone.
