Ask Sam – Part 1

answering your questions as we learn together

As we wrap up 2019, I thought we would take few moments to go over some of these most frequently asked questions about sleep. I often pop up a question box in our Instagram stories to see what I can help with but this time I am using them on the podcast and answering them all here. The answers are for the person who asked them, of course, BUT also for us as a community. Let's talk through some of these popular sleep hurdles and learn together.
