Carla's SleepTalk journey
Carla Pahl stands as Asia's preeminent authority in the field of SleepTalk Parent Consulting, with nearly a decade of unparalleled experience. Trained by Joane Goulding, Carla played an instrumental role within the Goulding Institute SleepTalk and continued to dedicate her time volunteering her support with Joane when she and her loyal trainers and consultants rebranded to form the International Goulding Method and register.
In late 2020 Carla was invited by Joane to join the private International Trainers cohort which formed the new Goulding Method team eventually leading to the now disbanded IGMA International Goulding Method Association.
Carla was instrumental in significantly contributing to Consultant communications and content creation for the newly established Trainers and Consultants International Register of the Goulding Method along with social media support.
In 2023, Carla acquired the business names and has since dedicated herself to creating a contemporary parenting resource grounded in the latest professional insights. In December 2024 Joane Goulding retired and her business was privately bought by a third party. Unfortunately, this began the disbandment of the international cohort of highly trained professionals. Recognising that raising a child requires a community, Carla collaborated with two equally distinguished colleagues, Sonya Moriarty and Dr. Colette McHugh.
Together, drawing on their extensive professional journeys and personal parenting experiences, they co-authored "The SleepTalk Method - Raising Emotionally Resilient children in a Modern World” a parenting handbook full of robust evidence based advancements in pedogogical education and neuro cognitive research.
Our team acknowledges the crucial importance of emotional resilience, the strength of open communication, and the enduring power of love in defining modern parenting. The SleepTalk Method is designed to foster a supportive environment, equipping children to face their futures with confidence and compassion.
After years of the essence of the program remaining unchanged and the modality lacking progressive pedagogical advancement, Carla became extremely concerned with the lack of support being given to parents, families and most importantly children. The gap grew bigger as did Carla’s frustration.
The structure needed complete overhauling as parents had changed many generations on from the original concepts of auto suggestion coined by Emile Coue, as had our knowledge in human behaviour, cognitive development and emotional wellbeing.
Carla has always believed that parents are a child’s first and most important teacher and this was the scaffolding that we have set about to create our modern and parent focussed resource.
