What if better sleep could actually help rewire your brain?
In this energising and insightful episode, I chat with Dr. Laura Bojarskaité, a neuroscientist and sleep researcher whose work explores how rest and sleep shape our brains — and how they’re essential for memory, creativity, and simply feeling like ourselves.
Laura shares what actually happens in the brain while we sleep, why rest is about more than just clocking 8 hours, and how everyone can improve their sleep — even in the midst of a busy life. We also talk about the connection between rest, emotional well-being, and the brain’s incredible ability to change.
Whether you’re a night owl, burnout survivor, or just curious about how to feel more rested and alive — this one’s for you.
