## Resource

In Part 1 of this two-part Fit Physician Podcast series, Suzanne & Jake sit down with sleep coach and Sleep Is A Skill host Mollie Eastman to explore why sleep is often the missing pillar in health and performance — especially for busy, high-achieving women physicians. Mollie shares her personal journey through insomnia, the cultural normalization of burnout in medicine, and how sleep acts as a powerful barometer for stress, energy, and overall wellbeing. The conversation highlights common sleep mistakes, the challenges of shift work and midlife changes, and the growing idea that sleep isn’t just something you have — it’s a skill you can build. --- 📲 Click here to follow Mollie on Instagram 🎧 Click here to listen to the Sleep Is A Skill Podcast 💤 Click here for Mollie's Sleep Is A Skill Resources --- 📲 Click here to follow Mollie on Instagram 🎧 Click here to listen to the Sleep Is A Skill Podcast 💤 Click here for Mollie's Sleep Is A Skill Resources
