In this episode of "LEAN IN: Change Your Size, Change Your Life," we delve into the critical role sleep plays in health and weight management. We start by exploring how sleep is as essential as a balanced diet and regular exercise, supporting brain performance, mood, and overall health while reducing the risk of diseases such as heart disease, stroke, obesity, and dementia. We'll discuss how sleep disorders like insomnia and sleep apnea can disrupt these benefits and why addressing these issues through medical intervention and lifestyle changes is key.
We examine how poor sleep affects appetite and weight by disrupting our hormone balance and metabolism. We'll highlight the impact of blue light from screens on sleep and discuss the importance of maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. Additionally, we'll explore the link between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and weight issues, especially in menopausal women due to hormonal changes. Finally, we'll share practical strategies for establishing a sleep-friendly environment and fostering a positive mindset toward sleep. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how sleep affects your health and strategies to get a good night's sleep.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
