Ep. 92 What happens to your sleep when life suddenly shifts? Maybe it is a career change, a move, a growing family, or an evolving business. Transitions can leave you stretched thin, running late, and wondering how you will ever find your rhythm again.

In this episode of The Doze Podcast, certified sleep coach Soda Kuczkowski opens up about her own season of change—moving The Doze into a warehouse, closing the START WITH SLEEP resource center and storefront after ten years, and navigating her daughter’s busy schedule—all while balancing the daily demands of work and family. Through her story, you will see that disrupted sleep in times of change is not a permanent setback—it is an invitation to adapt. Sleep is not about perfection; it is about course correction.

🌙 What you’ll learn:

• How to protect your sleep when life shifts suddenly
• Why grounding rituals and personal tokens keep you centered
• The mindset shift that turns disrupted sleep into a temporary detour, not a permanent setback
• Five practical strategies to reset your rest and reclaim your resilience

💬 Notable Quotes:

• “Sleep health is not about perfection. It’s about course correction.”
• “Your sleep is not as fragile as it feels in the moment. It’s resilient.”
• “Transitions require flexibility, and if you don’t bend, you break.”
