This subscriber episode is a real-time look at something I’m currently going through—waking up in the middle of the night, wide awake, and trying to figure out why.

If you’ve been waking up at 2, 3, or 4AM lately… you’re not alone.

In this episode, I talk through what this has been feeling like for me and what I’ve been exploring behind it, including:

  •  cortisol patterns and how stress hormones may be affecting sleep 
  •  blood sugar dips during the night 
  •  hormonal changes in midlife (including temperature shifts and night sweats) 

I also share what I’m personally trying right now—from nutrition adjustments to small changes in my nighttime routine—and what seems to be helping (and what’s not).

This isn’t a “perfect plan”—it’s a real-life look at figuring this out as I go.

If this has been happening to you too, this episode will feel very familiar.
