Manage episode 380651558 series 3341777
Ever fought off sleep as a child, brimming with the fear of missing out? That was me – from falling asleep on the stairs, trying to sneak back into the living room, to seeking comfort in the smallest spaces, sleep and I have been at odds. This episode peels back the layers of my complicated relationship with sleep, inviting you to journey with me from my childhood stairs to my bedroom today.
We explore the origins of my sleep aversion, tracing back to the battles I had with the sandman as a child. I share stories of my parents' struggle to get me to sleep, my brother's devious attempts to induce nightmares, and the weird love of breakfast in the wee hours. My lifelong struggle with sleep, marked by the fear of missing out and an inexplicable preference for smaller sleeping spaces, are laid bare for you to comprehend and perhaps relate to.
We then bring things back to the present day, where my struggle with sleep continues. You'll learn that holidays actually see me sleeping less, and my ludicrous attempt to manage my sleep better. Let’s navigate this sleep journey together, sharing personal experiences, tips, and tricks along the way. Join me on this journey into the world of sleep - or rather, my lifelong aversion to it.
