Season 1 Episode 48
We spend a third of our lives asleep… but have you ever stopped to wonder what’s really happening when your head hits the pillow? This week we’re breaking down the wild, fascinating world of sleep. From brain activity to body repair, from dreams to deep rest—we’re covering it all.
Which stage of sleep actually makes you feel the most rested? Why do we dream—and does everyone dream? Do women really need more sleep than men? And yes, is it true your brain literally paralyzes your body every single night so you don’t act out your dreams? (Spoiler: it’s a little spooky but very cool.)
Scientists still don’t have all the answers, but we’ve got the best of what they do know—served up in an easy, relatable way. Plus, I’ll share my favorite hacks to fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling like an actual human instead of a zombie.
If you’ve ever been curious about why sleep is so mysterious, so necessary, and so strangely magical, this episode is your invitation to pull up the covers and dive in with us.
