Sleep is not a luxury, a reward, or a wellness trend. It's a biological necessity. In this episode, writer and sleep coach Lindsay Scola shares her journey from high-functioning burnout to a late-in-life narcolepsy diagnosis, and why she's helping others rethink their relationship with rest. The conversation explores why traditional sleep advice often fails, how the sleep industry profits from our exhaustion, and what actually helps—from sound sleep masks to mocktails to restoring cast iron skillets on YouTube. This is a no-shame, no-snake-oil guide to making sleep work for your real life. Learn more about Rest Assured and all of Lindsay's sleep work here. Join our newsletter community here.
