Summary

Why can’t women sleep? From tossing and turning through the night, to the 3AM wake-up call that feels impossible to recover from, insomnia is one of the most common issues women face — especially during perimenopause and menopause. Molly and Emese sit down with leading sleep expert Dr. Shelby Harris to unpack the science of women’s sleep and the real fixes that actually work. We cover everything from why hormones, stress, and parenting fatigue wreak havoc on REM cycles to evidence-based strategies like CBT-I (cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia), sleep hygiene hacks, and supplement myths. Dr. Harris also sets the record straight on the biggest viral myths  — does age really mean you need less sleep? Does “before midnight” sleep count more? How much do women actually need? — and shares what every woman in her 30s, 40s, and 50s should know about protecting sleep for better brain health, mood, and longevity. Because better sleep isn’t just rest — it’s your key to sharper thinking, steadier mood, and better aging Mentioned in the Episode: The Women's Guide to Overcoming Insomnia: Get a Good Night's Sleep Without Relying on Medication by Dr. Shelby Harris TIMESHIFTER App Topical Magnesium Green Compass Full Spectrum Daily Nano Jellies Hatch Alarm A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts and follow us at @sonypodcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

One of my favorite parts of fall is giving my home its own little refresh, kind of like swapping out your closet for the season, but for your space. In Macy's fall fashion guide makes it so easy. It's not just about your wardrobe. It's about curating those cozy, stylish touches that instantly change the vibe of your whole home. First up, country florals. Think rustic, chic, charming, and timeless prints. McKenzie Childs has the sweetest Wild Rose Kitchen set I've been eyeing, and hotel collections floral bedding is so soft and cozy. It adds that perfect vintage-inspired warmth. Then, there are heirloom layers. This trend is all about textures and patterns that feel collected over time. Plads, stripes, checks. I picked up a plush, ugg throw for Macy's that's become my couch staple

that looks like it cost way more than it did. The thing I'm eyeing on right now, they're wool coats. They look designer. Like, people would totally assume you spent $800 on one. The best part is they partner directly with these really ethical, top-tier factories, and skip the middlemen, so you're actually getting luxury-level pieces at a fraction of the price. Honestly, I feel like Quince is just making my whole fall wardrobe upgraded.
