It’s a place to get inspired, have a few laughs, feel like you’re not alone, and walk away with advice that’s actually helpful. We’re tired of all the health trends, the wellness fads, and everyone telling us how to feel, when we just want to feel like ourselves again. Midlife may be messy (especially around that midsection), but we can do this. Some days you’ll feel like a rock star, others you’re barely hanging in there. We meet you where you’re at, so come hang with us on The Livy Method Podcast. If you want to learn more about The Livy Method, visit livymethod.com . Hosted on Acast.

Then 3 AM hits and suddenly you're staring at the ceiling, counting down how many hours you have left. Sound familiar? Sleep expert Alanna McGinn joins Gina to get to the bottom of one of midlife's most common and most frustrating experiences. They unpack why our sleep shifts during times of stress and hormonal change, why \"quieting your mind\" is the wrong goal entirely, and what's actually happening in your body during those middle-of-the-night wake-ups. Alanna breaks down the real culprits of blood sugar, body temperature, your bedtime and your emotional relationship with sleep. She offers a refreshingly honest take on how to stop making 3 AM the enemy.
