115. Rhythms, Routines, and REM: Expert Tips to Manage Jet Lag & Sleep Disruption While Crossing Time Zones
Description
No matter how dreamy your destination is, there’s one thing that can make or break your trip: sleep.
In this episode, I’m joined by sleep therapists Leah Corkum and Marlee Boyle, co-founders of Sleep-Works, a Canadian-based virtual sleep education company helping individuals and families improve their sleep health. With certifications in CBT for insomnia, clinical sleep health, and years of experience in both nursing and respiratory therapy, Leah and Marlee bring a holistic and practical approach to sleep support that goes far beyond just tips and tools.
We talk about how travel disrupts sleep, what actually causes jet lag, and why light exposure, sleep environment, and the way you use (or misuse) melatonin can all have a big impact on how you feel before, during, and after a trip.
Whether you're a frequent flyer, a parent navigating time zone shifts with kids, or just trying to avoid that foggy, post-vacation exhaustion, this conversation is packed with practical strategies from professionals who know the science—and the real life struggle—of sleep and travel.
