Now, most people have heard of the body’s Circadian Rhythm but do you know what it means and how it affects our wellbeing and sleep? Well, someone who does is our guest today Dr Kat Lederle, who is a sleep and body clock scientist, a sleep coach and also the author of Sleep Sense. Dr Kat is passionate about helping individuals sleep well and feel good. She sees sleep as an act of self-care, and her focus is on providing one-to-one therapeutic sleep coaching to women who experience insomnia and sleep problems. Her work combines sleep science with and learnings from Mindfulness, Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy. We chat about why women sleep differently to men.You can watch the full unedited interview on our Womenkind Collective YouTube channel. The Book Collective this week seems to be getting all of us furious as we continue reading Unwell Women by Elinor Cleghorn, we realise it’s no wonder women’s health is as dire as it is today with male medics taking charge of birthing and a really heinous man called Dr Isaac Baker Brown who insisted clitoridectomy was a way to cure women of pleasuring themselves. You can join in with our Book Club, send us a DM or voice note with your thoughts on the book. We catch up on your comments Jinty asks a deep question from Gina Martin’s new book and Lou finds out about casting clouts!
