The Resting in Motherhood Podcast
Hey mama, are you on a mission to do motherhood differently? The Resting in Motherhood Podcast is your motherhood refuge, a safe space where we candidly explore every facet of motherhood, even the thoughts we've tucked away or are afraid to say out loud – because the truth is, we’re all on our own unique journeys doing what works best for our family, but that doesn’t mean we have to do it alone or feel insecure about how we’re doing it.
Join your host, Brittni Mella Cepeda, certified infant sleep specialist and a mom herself, each week to discuss all of the raw, real, and relatable truths of motherhood. It's time to reclaim your confidence, find solace in your choices, and truly rest in your role as a mother.

Navigating the Dilemma of Santa as a Gentle Parent
Today’s episode is coming from the heart and has been one that I wanted to talk about for a while. It is definitely a topic that’s more complex, or even polarizing – so let’s dive into my daughter’s journey with Santa (and soon the Tooth Fairy). Of course, before listening in, what I'm doing personally in my life does not mean that you have to do it, and just because I'm doing something one way doesn't mean that you're doing it the wrong way. It also doesn't mean that I'm judging you for doing it your way. But! In this episode, you will hear how the concept of Santa relates to the complexities of parenting, why I decided to never introduce Santa from the start, and how – if you choose to do Santa – you can do it in a way that’s in alignment with gentle parenting. Whatever you decide, I hope you can feel confident in embracing change to foster a more relaxed and joyful approach to motherhood in this season.
