As moms, we're hyper-focused on our kids getting enough sleep, because we know how vital it is to their health and mood. But as women? We're often up well past our bedtimes, rage-cleaning, trying to sneak in some time with our spouses, or binge-watching Bridgerton, as if we're super-women who can run our chaotic lives on willpower and coffee alone.
If you know you're exhausted but just can't seem to get enough sleep, this episode is for you!
Join us as we get honest about:
* How women need more sleep than men, and the amount of sleep needed can vary depending on the menstrual cycle.
* Why sufficient sleep is more important than that early-morning workout.
* How using coffee as an upper and wine as a downer does NOT constitute a healthy sleep plan
* Practical tips for women to get better sleep
* Why you need a sleep routine
* What time you need to go to bed to get good sleep
* Why you need to go device-free before bed (it's not what you think!)
* The important mindset shift you need to make as a woman and a mother to get more sleep
Plus, Andrea is in a MOOD; Jessica has mixed feelings about Bridgerton Season 2; and we're both shocked (but not shocked) at how little sleep the members of our Facebook Community are getting!
