Episode notes

Let’s talk about sleep!

Since we officially entered winter, I feel like I’ve taken on the energy of the bear and really have felt the need to hibernate in my own way, which means sleeping more, going to bed earlier, and taking more naps. 

I’ve never been a night owl, and I’ve always felt like I needed more sleep than everyone around me. Heck, even in my childhood, I’d be with a group of friends watching a movie, and I’d notoriously fall asleep part-way through—and it didn’t matter how action-packed the movie was—I would konk out. 

For most of my adult years, my normal bedtime was normally 9:30 to 10. My husband and I would even jokingly refer to 10 pm being “Pumpkin Time” for me. But for the past month, I’ve been going to bed earlier, and it’s been a game-changer.

Maybe you’re not an early bird, and you’re more of a night owl—either way, in this episode, I talk about the importance of sleep in maintaining balance and well-being, as well as strategies for finding the right sleep schedule for your body. Join me as I dive into the benefits of sleep and how to make it a priority in your life.
