Propaganda I'm Not Falling For: Why I Question Sleep Training, Daycare, and Daily Sunscreen

from Biohacking with Brittany

In this raw solo episode, I'm calling out three pieces of "wellness propaganda" I refuse to follow—sleep training, daycare before age 3, and slathering on chemical sunscreen all day.  Expect science-backed research, mom-life honesty, and feminine-first biohacks that protect our babies' nervous systems and our own hormones.  If you're a high-achieving mom who's tired of being told to override intuition for convenience, this conversation is for you. DM me the "propaganda" you're ditching on Instagram. I TALK ABOUT:  08:00 – Propaganda #1: Sleep training vs. respecting an infant's circadian rhythm and HPA-axis development 15:10 – Attachment parenting, intuitive nap cues, and why I ditched the Huckleberry tracking app 19:00 – Propaganda #2: Daycare cortisol spikes, behavioral dysregulation, and why grandparent care wins for under-threes 26:40 – Rejecting the 40-hour grind and building a feminine-flow business around motherhood 33:55 – Propaganda #3: Sunlight as a nutrient, mitochondrial biogenesis, and choosing mineral blockers over chemical SPF 40:00 – My go-to zinc sunscreens — One Skin SPF 30 (code: BIOHACKINGBRITTANY) and Think Baby SPF 30 for Callahan SPONSORS: Feel your best with NOVOS—the only supplement targeting all 12 causes of aging.
