224. Your Child's Sleep Puzzle: Why Some Kids Sleep Easily (and Others Don't)
Episode 224
Tuesday, 27 January, 2026
Every child is born with a unique sleep puzzle—and understanding that concept can completely change how you approach sleep challenges. In this episode, Allison breaks down why some children seem to sleep effortlessly while others struggle no matter how closely parents follow the "rules." If you've read the books, followed the schedules, tried multiple methods, and still feel stuck, this episode is for you. Allison explains the idea of natural sleep talent and why sensitive sleepers often need a much more precise approach. Through personal stories from her own family—and a powerful real-life coaching example—she shows how even one missing puzzle piece can keep sleep from clicking… and how finding it can change everything almost overnight. This conversation is a reminder that sleep struggles are not a reflection of parenting failure. Some children simply have bigger, more delicate sleep puzzles—and with the right pieces in place, restful nights are absolutely possible. In this episode, we cover: What the "sleep puzzle" really means Why following advice perfectly still doesn't work for some kids Natural sleep talent vs. sensitive sleepers Why regressions, travel, and routine changes hit some children harder How one small shift can lead to major sleep breakthroughs Why you're not doing anything wrong—and never were If this episode resonates, consider sharing it with another parent who may need to hear this message.
