Today’s episode is called Rest Assured: Uncovering Hidden Obstacles to Rest, and if you’ve ever felt like sleep just doesn’t come easy—no matter how tired you are—you are not alone.
Joining us is Alyssa Bietz, a Kinesiologist and Certified Adult Sleep Consultant, and founder of Your Sleep Story. Alyssa works with adults who’ve been stuck in a cycle of sleepless nights and frustration—people who’ve tried everything and still wake up feeling exhausted. Her approach is gentle, evidence-informed, and rooted in helping people uncover the real reasons behind their sleep struggles.
We are going to be talking about:
🛏️ Why sleep feels so hard for so many adults 💡 How to create habits and environments that support true rest 🌙 What to do when your brain won’t “shut off” at night 🌀 And how better sleep can ripple into every other part of your life—from mood and memory to energy and well-being
Alyssa brings warmth, expertise, and a practical approach that empowers people to finally feel in control of their sleep again.
So whether you’re navigating insomnia, perimenopause, shift work, or chronic exhaustion—this episode offers you insight and hope.
