My guest, Morgan Adams, is a holistic sleep coach who spent nearly a decade dependent on prescription sleeping pills before rebuilding her relationship with sleep from the ground up. She's also a two-time breast cancer survivor, which gives her a perspective on rest that goes far beyond optimization. We get into what actually disrupts sleep for women in midlife, why most people feel jet-lagged by Monday morning, and the surprising research linking consistent wake times to a dramatically lower risk of death. Morgan also walks through why so many women wake up at 3:00 AM wired, and what's usually happening underneath that pattern. If you've been chasing better sleep through supplements, gadgets, or sheer willpower, this conversation will reframe what you've been told to prioritize. You’ll learn: [0:00] Introduction [3:29] How a message from Morgan's late mother led to her first breast cancer diagnosis [9:55] Why the mammogram missed it and what finally found the tumor [20:06] The Ambien overdose scandal that affected women for years [26:43] Why sleep is the bedrock pillar that nutrition and exercise stand on [33:48] Why sunglasses in the morning are sabotaging your circadian rhythm [37:58] The myth of eight hours and why consistency cuts mortality risk by 49% [48:13] The alcohol nightcap trap and why each drink slashes sleep quality [1:05:35] Why women in midlife waking at 3 AM should test for sleep apnea [1:16:12] Orthosomnia and why sleep stage data is the least accurate thing to obsess over Book a call with Morgan if you want to get your sleep back on track.
