Ever wake up to a CGM alarm at 2 a.m. and wonder why you're high (or low) even after doing everything "right"? In this solo episode, Melissa breaks down how perimenopause, pump settings, and shifting hormones can turn sleep into a nightly puzzle—and what to do about it.

You'll learn:

• Why melatonin, estrogen, and cortisol can all mess with your sleep
• How nighttime insulin settings and the dawn phenomenon play a role
• Real-life lessons from Melissa's switch to Omnipod 5 manual mode
• Simple, science-backed ways to improve sleep quality tonight

Whether you're waking up high, sweating through the night, or just tired of feeling tired, this episode helps you reconnect the dots between hormones, blood sugar, and deep rest.
