You Probably Have Insomnia... Here's What to Do About It


Listen Later

You probably have insomnia… and you probably don’t even know it. In this episode, we dive into one of the most relatable struggles out there: not being able to fall asleep, stay asleep, or stop stressing about sleep. We’re joined by Dr. Michelle Jonelis, a sleep medicine specialist who explains why your sleep tracker might be lying to you, why optimizing your sleep setup might backfire, and what actually works to fix your sleep (spoiler: it’s not melatonin). Dr. Jonelis breaks down the gold-standard treatment for insomnia and why so many of us are going about it the wrong way. If your brain won’t shut off at night, this one’s for you—or at least the 75% of us in the same boat.
