We're revisiting this gem from Season 2 with a fresh perspective! Whether you missed it the first time or want a refresher, we're getting real about the 3 AM wake-ups and sharing what's genuinely made a difference for us.

If you're lying awake at 3 AM wondering why sleep suddenly got so complicated, you're not alone. We're right there with you.

In this episode, Beth and Suzee get honest about their own midlife sleep struggles—the hormone shifts, the racing thoughts, the snoring spouses, the experiments that worked (and the ones that definitely didn't). We talk about why our bodies seem to have forgotten how to sleep, what we've learned from tracking it all, and why there's no one-size-fits-all answer.

This isn't about perfect sleep hygiene or doing it right. It's about comparing notes, trying things out, and getting used to the fact that sleep in midlife just looks different. We share what we've discovered—from midnight journaling to letting go of the pressure to fix it all—and remind ourselves (and you) that we're all just figuring this out as we go.

Because sometimes the most helpful thing is knowing you're not the only one staring at the ceiling.
