About this listen
Have you tried everything to get your child to sleep and nothing has worked? You are not alone.
Researcher and sleep coach Macall Gordon and the Sleep Lady Kim West offer a tried-and-true approach to shifting sleep behavior that actually works...even when nothing else has.
A tsunami of modern sleep training methods promise “easy” and “quick” results and for many parents and children, these methods work as intended. However, there is a large, exhausted group of parents whose children have sleep problems that are not responsive to those crying-based methods.
These children tend to be more reactive, persistent, and perceptive than their peers. And when it comes to sleep, little ones with this kind of temperament put up a much, much bigger fight. They need a different approach. That’s where Why Won’t You Sleep?! comes in.
Based on extensive research and proven methods used with thousands of families just like yours, this guide gives you strategies tailored to your child’s unique temperament.
Listeners will learn:
- Why popular sleep training techniques don’t work for some children
- The strengths and challenges of your child’s temperament traits
- Simple changes to your child’s routine and environment that set you up for success
- How to create a plan for your child, using the time-tested approach that doesn’t require leaving anyone alone to cry
- Tips, tricks, and workarounds for bedtime shenanigans, night wakings, co-sleeping, and more How to confidently push past plateaus and setbacks
Along the way, Gordon and West provide much-needed encouragement, validation, and insights to bolster parents’ self-confidence and resilience.
Why Won’t You Sleep?! gives you concrete answers to why sleep has been more challenging for these kiddos—and offers parents a much-needed dose of “I’ve got this!”

The first week was hard—we followed a gentle approach, but our baby still cried a lot. Without this book, I might have given up. The step-by-step guidance and encouragement helped me stay grounded through the tough moments, especially when doubt and anxiety crept in.
What made the biggest difference was learning about my baby’s temperament and realizing that there wasn’t anything "wrong"—she just needed a sleep plan tailored to her. That understanding, combined with the structure in the book, gave us real progress. In fact, she ended up adapting faster than I expected.
I feel more confident, and our whole family is finally getting the rest we need. I can’t recommend this book enough to any parent struggling with sleep.
