Kim’s journey from being a naturally great sleeper to battling insomnia is a raw, real, and deeply inspiring story.

Always a champion sleeper, Kim faced her first bout of insomnia after becoming a new mom and experiencing a “perfect storm” of stress, hormonal changes, and personal challenges.

A fear of not sleeping took over, leading her into the insomnia trap where sleep became an effort versus just a natural biological process.

In this episode, Kim talks about:

• How letting go of rules turned out to be the best rule
• How reframing separate bedrooms brought her peace
• The magic of no longer postponing joy
• The mindset shift that transformed her recovery
• Her heartfelt advice for anyone still navigating insomnia

Kim’s story is a powerful reminder to embrace the moment, release perfection, and rediscover joy.

Because true healing comes from living, not waiting.

The wildest thing about sleep is that the more we battle it, the further we get from it.

Today's podcast episode explores why insomnia feels like a battle for so many, and why that mindset might be holding you back.

I spent most of my life wrestling with insomnia, believing that if I just tried hard enough, I could overcome it.

Imagine my surprise to learn it was the exact opposite of that.

Sleep isn't something we overcome. It’s something we allow.

In fact, seeing it as a fight makes our brain think there’s a threat, keeping us in fight-or-flight.

In this episode, I share a personal story that flipped my perspective. Here's what else I cover:

• Why insomnia doesn’t respond to force or control
• The surprising benefits of not viewing sleep as a battle
• Simple shifts that help your brain feel safe enough to sleep
• Why fighting harder makes it go slower
• When you step out of the battle and become the teacher that’s when healing begins

If you’re tired of struggling and want a different approach, this episode could be exactly what you’re looking for. It’s not about trying harder — it’s about creating a mental space where sleep feels safe and easy again.

In this episode, I’m talking all things metaphors and what it looks like to break up with insomnia.

It’s not about quick fixes (they don't work anyway). It’s about unraveling the deep neural pathways that keep us stuck.

The journey out of insomnia, much like moving on from love, is messy and nonlinear.

It's very up and down.

One day, progress feels real. The next, it’s like: “When am I ever going to over this??”

But as we rewire our brains, life gets bigger, and insomnia gets smaller.

Eventually we fall out of insomnia the same way we fall out of love.

Join me for a raw, metaphor-driven view of how to finally "break up" with insomnia so you can live a life where sleep doesn’t define you.

Is there anything worse than watching the clock tick by hour by hour when you can't sleep?

I don’t think so.

Time caused me a tremendous amount of suffering when I was going through insomnia. Because I put a timeline on practically EVERYTHING related to sleep.

My goal with this podcast is to inspire you to think differently about time.

Because time and sleep just aren’t a great mix any way you slice it.

Tune in to hear:

• How the Greeks think about time (and how it can help us)
• Why sleep is so hard to describe
• The number #1 behavioral tool that gets rid of time anxiety
• The top 3 questions people ask me about time

Wishing you many awe-inspiring moments that exist beyond the constraints of time 🧡

Enjoy!

In this beautiful interview, Majken opens up about her experience with insomnia, which started in her early 20’s after a stressful life event.

She tried all the traditional avenues over the years including medication and CBTI.

But insomnia kept coming back.

As a new mom, her sleep struggles resurfaced and eventually Majken found her way into the mentorship.

Tune in to hear:

• How she learned to focus on her responses (rather than trying to fix her sleep), and how this allowed insomnia to gradually loosen its grip.
• How she learned to observe her brain instead of getting tangled up with it.
• What got her through a later speed bump.
• How she developed a more accepting and resilient approach to dealing with sleep disruptions.

Majken reflects on the tiny little joys that brought her closer to life, and the unexpected silver linings that came with insomnia.

When you have insomnia, even minor sleep disruptions feel GIGANTIC in the mind.

I could hear a pin drop two rooms over.

And the reason? A complete mystery to me.

I had no idea.

Which only made my brain freak-out WORSE.

There had to be something seriously wrong with me.

But I have good news.

If you’re someone who notices every noise, every movement, every sleep disruptor known to man...

There is absolutely nothing wrong with you.

Nothing at all.

You just have a super amazing brain.

It loves you lots and lots and wants to protect you from anything that could mess up your sleep.

That’s why sleeping next to someone else feels so completely impossible.

Your brain is CONVINCED this is a terrible idea.

But you know what?

It doesn’t have to be this way. Tune into this episode where I walk you through a 3-step process that will guide you back towards sleeping peacefully with a partner again.

Enjoy!

Arelys’ struggle with insomnia began on a family vacation when she found it hard to sleep at a noisy Airbnb. Upon returning home, she thought her sleep would return.

But that’s not what happened.

Instead, she went through many more months of struggle trying desperately to understand what was going on with her sleep.

Finally, she found the mentorship and while skeptical at first, she soon realized that it’s entirely possible to recover from insomnia.

In this episode, Arelys shares her journey:

• From being a good sleeper her whole life to having sleep anxiety
• How frustrating it was to be tired and NOT tired at the same time
• How Reddit left her more distressed than ever
• The moment she found some random lady on the internet and found her people
• How her response to insomnia was causing more suffering
• What she did to process some of the anger she felt about insomnia
• The powerful role of self-kindness in the process
• Why simply allowing whatever shows up during recovery is what allows it to go

I loved every second of this interview.

For Arelys, the mentorship wasn’t just about better sleep. It was about living the life she really wants to live and understanding her own power in making it happen.

If you’ve ever had the disheartening experience of sleeping better for a while, only to fall “back” into insomnia, this one’s for you.

Today I’m talking all about speed bumps.

And I’m doing it through the lens of David Goggins.

Because here's the thing about speed bumps … they’re normal.

Not only normal, but necessary.

We can’t really recover without them.

Tune in to hear:

• Why speed bumps are an important part of the process
• Some of the sneaky thoughts that like to creep in during these times
• The number one thing to remember when you’re in a speed bump
• Where the REAL battle lies
• Why NOT trying to break the cycle is what breaks the cycle

Speed bumps aren’t a sign that something has gone wrong. They’re a sign that things are going right.

Enjoy!

When you have insomnia, sleep can feel like a nightly battleground.

The harder we try to fix it, the more elusive it becomes. Insomnia is driven by the very efforts we make to escape it.

So many people (myself included) get caught in a cycle of trying everything — different teas, blackout curtains, sleep apps — only to find that these efforts just contribute to the problem.

It’s incredibly frustrating.

You might feel completely alone in this, but I assure you, you’re not. Many people share this struggle. The good news is there’s a way out.

Tune in and learn:

• What effortlessness truly means
• Why I’m fascinated with the flow state
• Everything you need to know about sleep efforts
• The role of the Law of Reversed Effort
• How sleep efforts reinforce the problem they’re meant to solve
• Why intention is the only thing that matters

By understanding the concept of effortlessness, we can break free from the cycle of never-ending sleep efforts and let our bodies do what they’re naturally designed to do.

Which is… sleep.

Enjoy!
