Hey friends, it's Dora here. Let's be real. Bedtime can feel like a constant battle.

The tantrums, the stalling, the screen fatigue, it's a lot. That's why we created Wiggle to Wind Down,

a brand new kid's sleep podcast from Headspace and Cocoa Mellon.

Each episode helps your little one move, breathe, and settle into a soothing bedtime story so they can relax and you can finally exhale.

Search for Wiggle to Wind Down wherever you get your podcast and make bedtime a little easier

for everyone.

Hi, welcome Radio Radio Headspace.

It's Dora, and I'm so glad you're here.

So, here we are, full circle from where this story began.

Fast forward seven years from that messy breakup,

and I'm sitting in front of 12 people in my mindfulness teacher training program about

to share the very stories I've been telling you this week.

I'm talking about losing your inner voice, turning healing into productivity, learning to be

soft, all the messy, beautiful stuff we've explored together.

But right before I start, I have this moment of panic. Because

I'm about to tell a room full of aspiring teachers about my quarter-life crisis, my spiritual

productivity spreadsheets, and my resistance to softness. I'm literally about to expose my healing

in public. And this little head in my voice goes, wait, should someone who had a breakdown be teaching

other people about finding their way?

Then one of my students raised her hand and said, Dora, I just want to thank you for being

so real about your journey.

It makes me feel less alone in mine.
