Struggling with sleep can feel frustrating and lonely, but you’re not alone. In this first episode of Why Can’t I Sleep!?, I break down what insomnia really is, why it happens, and what keeps it going.

We’ll explore:

  • The 3P Model of insomnia: predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating factors.
  • What’s actually happening in your brain and body during a sleepless night.
  • Common sleep habits that backfire—and what you can do instead.
  • Practical, science-backed strategies for building better sleep habits.

Whether you’re dealing with stress, an irregular schedule, or those frustrating middle-of-the-night racing thoughts, this episode offers insights and tools to help you approach sleep in a calmer, more compassionate way.
