Why is getting your teenager to sleep such a battle?
You know they’re tired. You see the dark circles, the short fuse, the struggle to get out of bed. And yet—every night feels like a repeat performance: too much screen time, late-night scrolling, resistance to routine, and mornings that start with stress.
This isn’t about laziness. And it’s not about bad parenting.
Better Sleep for Teens is a practical, compassionate audio guide for parents who want to understand what’s really going on with teen sleep—and how to help without starting another argument. It’s not about fixing your teen overnight. It’s about shifting the tone, opening the conversation, and finding your influence again, one small change at a time.
Across the next five modules, you’ll explore:
- Why teens resist sleep even when they’re exhausted
- What science tells us about the teenage body clock
- How to build better routines without power struggles
- Gentle ways to shift their space, habits, and digital life
- What to do when everything falls apart—and how to start again
No lectures. No pressure. Just practical tools, calm strategies, and quiet confidence
Whether your teen is up all night or just struggling to stay consistent, this series will help you reconnect with them, protect your own energy, and move from tension to teamwork.
Because sleep isn’t just about rest. It’s where recovery, resilience, and reconnection begin.
