Are you staring at the ceiling at 3 AM, wondering why sleep has suddenly become your nemesis? You're not alone. Sleep disruption affects nearly half of all women during perimenopause and menopause, yet too many of us are told to simply accept it as part of aging.

This candid exploration of menopause-related sleep issues goes beyond the usual "turn down your thermostat" advice to deliver transformative strategies that actually work. I share my personal journey through hormone-induced insomnia—including the frustration of being told my levels were "within normal range" while suffering through night sweats, brain fog, and mood swings. The game-changing moment came when a functional medicine approach revealed my estrogen dominance and provided solutions that conventional medicine missed.

Discover why hormone shifts disrupt sleep patterns, how to create an evening routine that supports rather than sabotages rest, and specific body-supporting tools like magnesium glycinate, valerian root, and grounding sheets. We'll also explore powerful mind hacks to quiet the mental gymnastics keeping you awake, including journaling techniques, breathing exercises, and scripture meditation that invite peaceful slumber.

Sleep isn't a luxury—it's a biological necessity and the foundation of health. Whether you're waking with night sweats, struggling to fall asleep, or experiencing poor sleep quality, these practical, science-backed strategies can help you reclaim your nights and wake feeling renewed. Because midlife might be messy, but your sleep doesn't have to be.

Try implementing just one strategy from this episode consistently for a week and share your results! What sleep hack will you commit to trying first?
