It’s Penny & Jennie again from The Informed Perspective, and today’s podcast was a deep (and much-needed) dive into why sleep matters more than we think.
We were joined by three incredible women:
🍼 Sinead Davin – newborn care specialist
🧠 Tracy Hannigan – sleep therapist for adults
🌿 Janie Perry – naturopath and nutrition expert
Together, we unpacked:
Why sleep deprivation can increase the risk of Alzheimer’s
How new parents (yes, dads too!) are deeply affected by sleep loss
What “hyperarousal” is and how it keeps us wired at night
Why blood sugar, caffeine, and magnesium matter for quality sleep
Tools like breathwork, tapping, and screen-free wind-downs
🌙 Top tips from our guests:
Sinead: Get daytime feeding right (for baby sleep!)
Janie: Balance your blood sugar
Tracy: Don’t check the clock at 3 a.m.
Sleep isn’t a luxury — it’s your foundation.
🎧 Tune in now & let's rest smarter.
