EP 241. Why You’re Waking Up at 2 AM (And What to Do About It)
This episode is for every woman who’s tired of being tired. If you’re waking up at 2 AM wide-eyed, doomscrolling yourself into a cortisol spiral, this one’s going to hit home—in the best way possible.
I’m breaking down why your sleep is all over the place (hint: it’s hormonal, not your fault), and how you can finally reclaim your nights like the grown woman you are. We’re not throwing melatonin at the problem—we’re talking about creating a luxurious, biology-friendly ritual that makes you feel like the Four Seasons version of yourself.
You’ll hear why 5 hours of sleep is not enough, what your 2 AM wake-up is trying to tell you, and how to add an hour of sleep without blowing up your whole life.
Inside This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why the 2 AM wake-up is not just bad luck (hint: it’s your hormones)
How tech and late-night scrolling are wrecking your sleep hygiene
The three-step formula to add 1 hour of sleep with zero drama
What sleep has to do with weight loss, cravings, and motivation
How to turn your bedtime into a grown-woman ritual
It’s time to step into something different. If you’re ready, let’s begin.
