“Sleep impacts the key parts of our brain responsible for our mood, our decision making, and even our empathy levels.”

If sleep is so essential, why does it feel so hard to get?

In this powerful episode, leading sleep education expert Lisa Maltman joins The School of Wellbeing to explore the critical role sleep plays in our health, relationships, and daily performance.

Lisa shares her personal journey into sleep health, revealing the impact of chronic stress, technology overload, late-night habits, and the cultural belief that rest is something we must earn, not something we need to survive.

You’ll learn how to:

Understand your unique sleep needs
Navigate common sleep challenges
Create simple, sustainable habits that support deep, restorative rest

Whether you’re struggling with insomnia or just tired of feeling tired, this conversation is your reminder that sleep isn’t selfish, it’s essential.
