Ep. 96 When you think about getting healthy, you probably think about what to eat, how to move, and ways to manage stress — but there’s one pillar of wellness that quietly powers them all: sleep.
In this episode of The Doze Podcast, host Soda Kuczkowski, Certified Sleep Coach and Sleep Health Educator, unpacks why sleep isn’t just recovery — it’s recalibration. You’ll learn how your body uses sleep to regulate hormones, absorb nutrients, and lock in the benefits of your hard work in nutrition, fitness, and stress management.
💡 Here’s what you’ll discover:
Why sleep is the most overlooked part of your wellness routine
The science behind how sleep amplifies your diet, workouts, and recovery.
Why tracking your sleep isn’t enough — and what to do instead
The truth about “catching up” on sleep (spoiler: you can't really do it!)
How to protect your rest as an act of strength, not surrender
📅 Event Mentioned: Join Soda at the BNMC Food as Medicine Symposium – Saturday, October 25th
Notable Quotes:
"When you start with sleep, everything else works better."
"Sleep makes it into almost every conversation, but usually as a complaint, not a commitment."
"Sleep isn't just about recovery, it's about recalibration."
"Protecting your sleep is not just about being rigid. It's about being respectful of your limits."
