Sleep is more than just rest — it’s a reflection of our inner world.
In this episode, we explore how ongoing sleep struggles can point to something deeper beneath the surface, including mental health challenges like anxiety, trauma, or burnout.

Whether you’re someone who’s tossing and turning at night or you support others through their wellbeing journey, this reflection will help you understand what disrupted sleep might really be trying to tell you.

We’ll cover:
– When sleep issues are more than “just bad habits”
– The links between trauma, stress and poor sleep
– Why emotional exhaustion leads to wired-but-tired nights
– How to spot signs that it's time to seek support
– What you can do today to take back control of your rest
