Summary
If you've ever woken up at 3 A.M. with every problem in your life rushing into your mind, you know exactly what I'm talking about. That's what I call a "case of the 3 A.M.s." It's when everything feels unsolvable until morning hits, and suddenly it all seems manageable again. In this episode, I share the "Inventory List", a 10-minute nightly exercise that will help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up with a clear plan instead of panic. Get ready to sleep deeper, think clearer, and face tomorrow with the confidence of someone who already knows they've got the answers.
