The Sleep-Fitness Connection

This week, we’re talking about the early stages of parenthood and all the chaos that comes with it. Taimur shares what it’s really like dealing with sleep deprivation, and we chat about why daily walks help keep you sane. We also get into the idea of liminal spaces – those in-between phases of life where things feel uncertain – and why they’re not necessarily a bad thing. Plus, some thoughts on sleep quality, fitness, and getting ready for big life changes.
