Struggling to fall asleep?
You’re not alone — and this episode of Sleep A Sound is made to help your mind slow down and finally drift off.
Tonight, we ease gently into the story of Madonna’s iconic 1986 album True Blue — told in a calm, slow, sleep-friendly style inspired by modern sleep science. This episode blends soothing narration, guided relaxation cues, and peaceful storytelling to help quiet a busy mind.
Sleep expert Matthew Walker, author of Why We Sleep, has said on Diary of a CEO:
“A wandering mind is not a resting mind. You need something gentle to anchor your thoughts.”
This is exactly what
Sleep A Sound provides — a soft anchor for an overactive brain.
We explore how True Blue was created, the emotional depth behind “Live to Tell,” the cultural impact of “Papa Don’t Preach,” the warmth of “La Isla Bonita,” and Madonna’s transformation from rising star to global force — all delivered in a way that helps you unwind rather than overstimulate.
Neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman notes:
“Calming storytelling helps shift the brain into a parasympathetic, ready-for-sleep state.”
This episode is designed around that principle — each sentence paced slowly, gently, and intentionally.
If you love music… if you grew up in the ’80s… or if you simply want a peaceful way to fall asleep tonight… this soothing deep dive is for you.
Press play, dim the lights, and let Madonna’s True Blue become a soft, steady soundtrack for sleep.
