1 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha and welcome to stuff 2 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: I never told you production by her radio. 3 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 2: And you know what, We've recently had an episode when 4 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 2: we talked about postpartum and we in that episode we 5 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 2: talked about a new study supposedly that's talking about how 6 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 2: women need more sleep. So I thought we could take 7 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: this money, Minnie and explore that, Like, what are people saying, 8 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,279 Speaker 2: let's talk about this. When did they actually decide that 9 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 2: studies about sleep should include women? Guess what, y'all, it 10 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: didn't happen until the nineties. That's right. They actually expanded 11 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 2: the study from just white men to well everybody else 12 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: in like nineteen nineties. Surprise of price. Of course, some 13 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 2: would argue that because sleep studies didn't start until the seventies, 14 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: which is relatively late for kind of these type of 15 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: scientific biological studies, that this is a bit more progressive 16 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 2: on the timeline than other types of studies. So I 17 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: guess here's a cookie take it. Thanks for including others. Yeah, 18 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 2: but anyway, so with all of that, we know that 19 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: sleep is important. I think we were trying to talk 20 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 2: remember some of our past episodes, because I'm pretty sure 21 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 2: we had a whole conversation about like you having trouble 22 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 2: sleeping and how much sleep we actually need and all 23 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: these different things. I know Christen and Caroline have several 24 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 2: other like difference in reference to like women and babies 25 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: and whether or not insomnia effect women differently, all those 26 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: different things. So this is not a new subject, but 27 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: I thought we would go back to the basic, especially 28 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 2: with the fact that they have this newer study came 29 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: out in twenty twenty four. I believe, and yes, the 30 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: typical recommendation that we've always heard I've always heard out 31 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: about you, but like eight hours is the timeline, but 32 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: like seven to nine hours is the perfect timing is 33 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 2: if you have good RESTful sleep. And that's a whole 34 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: different conversation for me. I have to say, I need 35 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 2: to either have just like six to seven hours for 36 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: me to feel like I'm parking up and according to 37 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 2: my watches that tell me how well my sleep is. 38 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: Those are the like the less sleep like if it's 39 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 2: more than five hours but less than seven, like less 40 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: than eight, it says you did a great job. I 41 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 2: score pretty high, and I say pretty had in like 42 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: eighties and they're like, yeah, a thumbs up. Out of 43 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: one hundred, or it has to be ten hours, Like, 44 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 2: you better give me the full ten hours. I need 45 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 2: to sleep it off. But in between is not good 46 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 2: for me. I get really odd and groggy. 47 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: What about you? 48 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: How have you been sleeping lately? I always ask you 49 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: this when you stay here, I'm like, how did you sleep? 50 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: How many hours did you sleep? 51 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: What? 52 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 2: How did you go to bed? So let me ask 53 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: you how are you sleeping? 54 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: I have improved in this arena since I think we 55 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: last talked about it. I Five is my app That's 56 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: my number. Though, yeah, I feel the best at five. 57 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: If I get more than that, I actually feel kind 58 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: of worse. I've never really gone I mean I have, 59 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: but very rarely have I gone over like eight or nine, 60 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: at least in my adulthood. When I was younger, I did. 61 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: But if five is where I'm good. But I do 62 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: like to doze around, Like my favorite thing is when 63 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: I don't have to get up yet and I can 64 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: think about stuff, Star Wars stuff, probably, but I did. 65 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: I do have. Part of my trouble with sleeping is 66 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: I have a like fight or flight reaction to it, 67 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: and it's so frustrating because it's it's hard to remember 68 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: the moment before you fell asleep correct, Like it's really difficult, 69 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: but I can, like my brain will shock me out 70 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: of it, like no, you're not falling asleep, and so 71 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: I will be almost asleep and it's like I'm drowning 72 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: and I have to like suck in air and it 73 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: wakes me right up. So that's my issue is I 74 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: have to get past that. 75 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: You feel like if you have sleep apnea, which is 76 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: a conversation I have. 77 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: My uncle has it and I have gotten tested for 78 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: it and they said I didn't have it, but my 79 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: brother has it too, So maybe. 80 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 2: Maybe it needs to be a different because that not 81 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: breathing is a breath, It just. 82 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: It just kind of feels like you're getting shocked out 83 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: of Uh. 84 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've had that. Yeah, That's what I'm usually in 85 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 2: my naptur late stages when I'm that way, because I'm like, 86 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: I'm kind of alert and know I need to wake up. 87 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 2: So if I actually shot myself wake up something, Oh no, 88 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 2: I missed it type of thought process, then I'm like, oh, 89 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 2: I'm awake. 90 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: Because which I know we'll probably talk about this and 91 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: I have previously talked about this. Maybe depending on when 92 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: you listen to it, because I have a happy hour 93 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: coming out about this, but it's it's true that I 94 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: probably am not getting a lot of good sleep. 95 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's yeah, that's the bigger conversation too, Like, yeah, 96 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: so again, we know that the lack of sleep can 97 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: be really bad for you. They're professionals that attribute lack 98 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 2: of sleep to the increase of things like type two 99 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: diabetes and high blood pressure and a lot of heart problems. 100 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: One of the most common diet tips that we get, 101 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 2: which I think is actually a helpful diet tip because 102 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 2: it's just healthy in general, is that your body needs 103 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: rest to reset and that it can't affect your metabolism. 104 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: I'm not a scientist. I can't tell you any of 105 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 2: these things, but having good sleep is a good thing, 106 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: so we're going to just attribute them like, eh, it's 107 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 2: good for all around. Good advice, right, But does it 108 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 2: affect women and men differently? Well, like any other good 109 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: research that's just newer, maybe the answer seems unclear. There 110 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 2: are those who state that women are in need of 111 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: more sleep and that has something to do with your 112 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: ever changing life cycles and hormone levels. So here's a 113 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 2: look at the Cleveland Clinic article which has this to 114 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 2: say from twenty twenty four, and it's from their article 115 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 2: why women need to sleep more than men? So women 116 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: typically have more issues affecting their sleep, so they may 117 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 2: need slightly more of it to make up for disruptive 118 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,559 Speaker 2: sleep or poor quality sleep than one of the doctors said. 119 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 2: So I know as I was reading through some of 120 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 2: these studies, they were saying that they don't necessarily need 121 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 2: like hours, but at least thirty minutes more because they 122 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: need to make up for that anxiety, restlessness, hot flashes, 123 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: whatever it may be. And the issues may include, they say, 124 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 2: hormonal changes, depression, and anxiety, and sleep disorders, which I 125 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: feel like sleep disorders is that a cause or the effect? 126 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 2: Like what are you saying to me? So that's a 127 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 2: whole different thing. And according to the Las Vegas Obgyn Center, 128 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: it goes they talk a little bit about like specific ages. 129 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: So here's what they say. For the fifteen to twenties, 130 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: they stress the importance of quote building a foundation, and 131 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: as young girls they go through different changes in puberty, 132 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 2: Actually going to sleep and staying asleep becomes more challenging 133 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: at this point in time, and that they recommend eight 134 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 2: to ten hours for this age range, and they often 135 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: say they need that longer time. Those teenagers, they really 136 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 2: need some extra extra caring. You know what, So parents 137 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: out there, don't don't be too upset when they sleep 138 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 2: till two pm, when they stayed up till four pm 139 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: listening to whatever music they want to listen. I sound 140 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: so old right now, moving up four am. I'm not 141 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: really old because I changed that because they stayed up 142 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: from up to four am. This whole conversation is gonna 143 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 2: make me really aged. So for the twenties and forties, 144 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 2: sleep cycles are often impacted by the hormonal shifts, and 145 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: they recommend seven to nine hours at that typical range. Again, 146 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: and of course they mentioned the need for healthy sleep 147 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: for those who experiencing pregnancy or going through pregnancy, and 148 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 2: even break down the different reasons and needs per trimester. 149 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: We're not going to go into that too deeply, but 150 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: they do have specific things like you need this, this 151 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 2: and this, and I know I've heard the stories. It's 152 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: almost impossible. Every position hurts. Yeah, that's what I've heard. Yep, 153 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: every position hurts. And then we have the whole motherhood 154 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: thing beyond. After the birth, and I would think this 155 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: is a bit more self explanatory. So here's the quote 156 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 2: from this article quote, motherhood transforms sleep into a precious 157 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 2: and evolving experience. While the recommended amount of sleep remains 158 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 2: the same, the journey of caring for children, especially during 159 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 2: their earlier years, bring unique rhythms and patterns to mother's rest. 160 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: Nighttime care of it givings such as feeding and soothing 161 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: can often creates more fragmented sleep, but it also reflects 162 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 2: the profound bond and attentiveness between mothers and their children. 163 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 2: So when we were reading these different articles, they do 164 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: talk about this level of like bond, but then at 165 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 2: some times continued like need for help doesn't always come, 166 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: but you can't really do much about it if you're feeding, 167 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 2: especially if you're breastfeeding. That that's that conversation, as we 168 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 2: mentioned in the post part of the episode, that they 169 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: were saying, if men should really step up to do 170 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 2: things if it's not for breastfeeding, Like you need to 171 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: bond as well. This really helps you bond throughout most 172 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 2: of the early stages of the children's lives and really 173 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: kind of funny. I don't know if I'm going to 174 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 2: mention it again a bit, but like as they're talking 175 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: about how you know, it's a beautiful thing and people 176 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: persevere and they really I'm like, this feels really condescending, 177 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 2: Like you're really pushing parents to be like, this is 178 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 2: a beautiful moment. This is gonna be like, but what 179 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: you're exhausted and you don't give a shit, Like at 180 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 2: this point, don't talk to me about these any words 181 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 2: about bonding. I want to sleep. 182 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm not an angry person, but when it comes out 183 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: it's because I'm exhausted, but I'm tired. That's when I'll 184 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: be like, you know. 185 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: What, they really were trying to paint this pretty picture 186 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 2: of like the perfect motherhood, glowing sainthood of like because 187 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 2: you got to wake up but four times during the 188 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: night and the best breasts children, and they're like, what 189 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: the hell, Yes this is great and all, but I'm tired. 190 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: But I was humorous. And then there's the perimenopause and 191 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 2: menopause moments again from that same article quote. As women 192 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: enter menopause, they often face new and unique challenges to 193 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: their sleep. Changes in estrogen and progesterone levels can bring 194 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 2: about symptoms like insomnia, hot flashes, night sweats, which may 195 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 2: disrupt RESTful sleep. These adjustments can be frustrating, but they 196 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: also reflect the body's transition into a new phase of life. 197 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: Despite these challenges, getting seven to nine hours of quality 198 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 2: sleep per night remains essential for maintaining physical, mental, and 199 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: emotional well being. I guess it's just because it's an obgyn. 200 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: But again, these flowery lang languages of like you're coming 201 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: into the new thing of your life, You're gonna be miserable, 202 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: but is so okay, It's wonderful. This then you hold 203 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: your hand to telling you that your delicate flower who 204 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: was withering away from not sleeping. I'm just kidding. And 205 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 2: this is what they say about the after menopause quote. 206 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: Research indicates that post menopausal women frequently experienced a decline 207 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: in sleep quality due to hormonal changes and other factors. 208 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: A meta analysis published in the Journal of Sleep Research 209 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: found that up to sixty percent of postmenopausal women report 210 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: poor sleep quality, with common issues including insomnia, sleep fragmentations, 211 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: and increased the awakenings during the night, which I've heard often, 212 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 2: and I think this is where I've heard, like people 213 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: will be like I will go to bed on time, 214 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 2: but I'll wake up at two stay up for a 215 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 2: few hours, and then go back to bed and then 216 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: wake up like sleep for four more hours. So that's 217 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: fragmented sleep, which can be disruptive, but you gotta do 218 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: what you gotta do. 219 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, And there was another recent study that found that 220 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: people were waiting up specifically at three am, and it 221 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: was because a lot of people go to bed at 222 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: the same time. But then if you're not super stressed, 223 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: you would wake up and fall back asleep and never 224 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: remember that you woke up at three am. Because we're 225 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: all so stressed, we're remembering waking up and we can't 226 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: go back to sleep. See. 227 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 2: I was trying not to bring in my TikTok FYP, 228 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 2: but you're making me do this anti because according to them, 229 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: this can be so many like thyroid issues where you 230 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 2: wake up at two am. Okay, all right, you have yes, yeah, 231 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 2: we got we get similar things. I don't know for 232 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 2: sure what that is because talking about different types of 233 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 2: like this is the whole level of like magnesium coming 234 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 2: in be like if you do this beautiful juice of 235 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 2: like cherry juice and this and this I tried. It 236 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: wasn't my cup of tea, but it wasn't a couple 237 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 2: of churches. Very tart cherry juice, by the way, because 238 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: my partner, who is a man, has the struggles of that. 239 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 2: But like if he goes to sleep too early, he 240 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 2: immediately wakes up at like around one or two, Like 241 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,719 Speaker 2: he has to wait at least eleven to try to 242 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 2: go to sleep unless he's exhausted, which is like his 243 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 2: his sleep schedule is so awful, like mine's pretty balanced 244 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: that he will like could sleep one day for fourteen 245 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 2: hours because like the previous five days he's only been 246 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 2: had like two or three hours of sleep. So he 247 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 2: finally like catches up with him very different schedules. But 248 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 2: all that to say is that he has a time 249 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 2: that if he can't if he's on trying to get 250 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 2: on raise schedule and he tries to go to bed 251 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 2: before eleven, like he goes to bed at ten, he 252 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: will be awake at one and then he'll be up 253 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 2: till five and then he's exhausted and sleeps again. But yeah, 254 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 2: that's I find that that is an interesting fragmented you're 255 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 2: missing the magnesium. I'm just kidding, that's not true. I 256 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 2: don't know, I don't know, so it goes without saying 257 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 2: having a good nice rest for women is healthy but 258 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 2: can be complicated. Summonhealth dot com right, so that it 259 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 2: is important for a good nice rest in the long 260 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 2: term for things like balancing hormones, decreasing the risk of 261 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 2: heart disease, and lowers the risk of mental health such 262 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 2: as anxiety and depression, and even can help with menstrual cycles, 263 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 2: which I was like, huh, that's interesting because also could 264 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 2: that be part of the effect of the lack of 265 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: sleep too. 266 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, because a lot of the the 267 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: symptoms of menstrual cycle is because it sucks, Like it 268 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: hurts and you're sucks. It sucks so you can't sleep. 269 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: Like it's not like you're angry, but it's not necessarily 270 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: your hormones. You're just angry because you feel miserable. 271 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 2: Whatever would may be. Yeah, I will say, like, because 272 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 2: of my cramps were severe, it would wipe me up. 273 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: It would make me up in the middle of the 274 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: night and I would have to go get medicine and 275 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 2: I would just be cramping until like it eases. 276 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and not even like that's not even taking 277 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: into account the times you're at a friend's house or something. 278 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: And you're worried about stearing their sheets. Yeah, I can't sleep. Yeah, hmm. 279 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 2: If you wear tampons sometimes it just feels so uncomfortable, 280 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: like if you're especially if you're like if you have 281 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: sensory issues and you're like, I can feel everything that 282 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: can keep you awake. So many things so and one 283 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 2: of the main reasons some are saying women may need 284 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 2: more sleep may have to do with the overall level 285 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 2: of sleep quality, which we did talk about earlier. Again 286 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: with things like hormonal changes. The quality of sleep can 287 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 2: be affected again when it comes to children, things such 288 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 2: as breastfeeding, changing babies, thinking about babies, thinking about whether 289 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: or not they're okay, Like I would be an anxious right, 290 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 2: like are they okay? Are they asleep? Do they roll over? 291 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 2: Whereas the blanket, all those things can disrupt a person's 292 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: quality of sleep and sleep schedule, especially when the brunt 293 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 2: of a load is placed on the mothers. We've again 294 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 2: talked about this with a postpartum episode. And it's not 295 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: just hormonal life changes, but other things like stress and 296 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: again just the type of sleeper a person may be. Again, 297 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 2: you five hours and you have these certain times and 298 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 2: if you don't go cause they you told me, like, 299 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 2: if I don't get up bed by two, I'm not 300 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: going to sleep before four. And I'm like, we will 301 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 2: be dressed to bed at two. 302 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: I got a pretty strict schedule for me. 303 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 2: I had to go to bed around ten or eleven. 304 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: I need at least a good six to seven hours 305 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: for me to really feel like I'm doing things. And 306 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 2: even then, especially with like the aches and pains, like 307 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 2: I can feel my hip hurting and I have to 308 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 2: roll over, I can like and with all of that. 309 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 2: Here's what calm dot com, who again not a necessarily 310 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 2: a sponsor, but I have used actually to help me 311 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: sleep because of my anxiety before they write the mental 312 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 2: load keeps women up at night. Women tend to carry 313 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: a heavy mental load, constantly tracking schedules, appointments, and family responsibilities. 314 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 2: These racing thoughts can make it tough to fall asleep. 315 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: Women wake up more often. Studies show that women are 316 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: more likely to be light sleepers. Whether it's a sick 317 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 2: child or a pet or a snoring partner. Women are 318 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 2: simply interrupted more at night, which can lead them a 319 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 2: feeling drained and they're definitely like all those things I've 320 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 2: seen that, not the sick child part, but like a 321 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 2: sick dog again. When she jumps off the bed to 322 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 2: a wretch, I'm alert. I'm like, what is happening? Where 323 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 2: is she going? The snowing partner, which he's working on this, 324 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 2: I've gotten used to it. I have a feeling it's 325 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 2: gonna be one of those things that if like he's 326 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 2: not there at night, I notice it, like where's he yet? Yeah, 327 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 2: where's he yet? And I am a light sleeper, but 328 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: I can also go back to sleep pretty easily. 329 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,239 Speaker 1: I can't go back to sleep easily. But I have 330 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: to say I have been really chiding myself for what 331 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: I call working when I'm sleeping, and it's not that 332 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: I'm even asleep, but I can't. I'm like, what if 333 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: we did an episode? And I'm like, stop working right now, 334 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: you need to go to sleep. 335 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 2: In the same way, I'm like, oh, yeah, we can 336 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 2: have an episode. Oh I was thinking about this earlier. 337 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: We need to have an episode. I've done that too, 338 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: never stops, never stops. But for me, I am a 339 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: light sleeper, but I can go quickly back to sleep. 340 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 2: So that's the good news for me. My partner, he's 341 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 2: not necessarily light sleeper, but he means he's like I 342 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 2: think he's like typical, but if I do wake him up, 343 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 2: he's awake. So I feel like a jerk, and I'm like, 344 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 2: oh no, but I used to be when I was 345 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 2: a kid, But I would creep my friends out. And 346 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 2: I don't know why they did this because they were 347 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 2: creepy to me, not me being creepy. They would try 348 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: it because they could wake up and look at me. 349 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: In the moment I felt them looking at me, I 350 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 2: would look wake up and it was always instant, So 351 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 2: they would do things just to see if I would, 352 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 2: and I would wake up because they're staring at me 353 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 2: and I feel it, and they would scream because I'm like, 354 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 2: why are you. 355 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: Looking at me? 356 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 2: Like why are you looking at me? But I'm that 357 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 2: kind of light sleeper also, but looking at me when 358 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: I'm asleep, it's creepy, y'all. So to say that this 359 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 2: is a brief explainer is a bit of an understatement. 360 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 2: The studies have gone even deeper, talking about the disparities 361 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 2: asleep for the black community and for other marginalized groups 362 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 2: in red cards to psychological stressors and factors, economic device 363 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 2: and discrepancies should be noted as well as resourcers talk 364 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 2: about the effects of environmental issues such as noise pollution, 365 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 2: light pollution, and other factors. And that's a huge thing. 366 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 2: Like where you're at, how well is your house insulated? 367 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 2: Can you afford you know, the insulated windows? Can you not? 368 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 2: Can you hear very well? Are you like my house 369 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 2: and right next to the interstate or in the neighborhood 370 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 2: where they think racing cars with a very loud motorist 371 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 2: fun at two in the morning. Yes. 372 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: And Kristin and I did a stuff whe Never Told 373 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: You video about the gender gap and sleeping, and one 374 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: of the things that Kristen brought up in that video was, 375 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, if you have if you're like a single mom, 376 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: for instance, and you have multiple jobs and you don't 377 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: have a car, and you have to take all the 378 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: transport like sleep, it really becomes a luxury right at 379 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 1: that point. 380 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 2: Right because it takes a long time to travel somewhere. 381 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 2: And from a journalist resource dot Org, they write sleep 382 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 2: deficiencies also vary by race and ethnicity. The CDC data 383 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 2: shows thirty one percent of white and Asian adults and 384 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 2: thirty two percent of Hispanic or Latinos reported that they 385 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,719 Speaker 2: were not getting enough sleep in twenty twenty, lower than 386 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 2: the national average of thirty five percent. In comparison, thirty 387 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 2: eight percent of American, Indian or Alaska natives, forty three 388 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 2: percent of Black people, and forty seven percent of Native 389 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: Hawaiian and other Pacific islanders report sleeping less than seven 390 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 2: hours per night. So it really does change based on location. 391 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: There's so many factors to this. When we have this conversation. Again, 392 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 2: this in comparison to the amount of studies that have 393 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 2: and should be had, is very small. Just put that 394 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 2: in there, but we did want to mention those things. 395 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 2: So to end, here's some advice from Health dot Harvard 396 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 2: dot edu for women specifically on how to get better 397 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 2: sleep or how to get quality sleep. One is to 398 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 2: create a sleep sanctuary. So keep it cool I or 399 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 2: however whatever temperature you need. I need it cold with 400 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: a nice blanket, But in this economy we keep it 401 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 2: kind of cold with a fan and less of a blanket. 402 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's been a real I've put off the AC 403 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: for as long as I could, and it definitely impacted. 404 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 2: They also say keep it cozy and keep it make 405 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: sure again sanctuary, so make it limited what you do 406 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 2: in there, and keep it screen free. I have a 407 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 2: hard time with that because I'm like scrolling scrolling. Also 408 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 2: now I need noise. That used to not be a 409 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 2: thing as much, but now I do. They also say 410 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 2: nap only if necessary. They say, if you do have 411 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 2: to nap, make it less than thirty minutes because it 412 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 2: does impact your schedule and sleepiness and all of that. 413 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 2: I think that's been said for a while. Avoid caffeine 414 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 2: after noon. My limit has been at two to three 415 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 2: me too, generally, Yeah, yeah, and I am starting to 416 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 2: become like you and having to take it down to 417 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 2: one cup of coffee. However, the caveat is my coffee 418 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 2: maker makes a really like strong, strong, strong level of 419 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 2: dream that I like, almost like a latte level with espresso, 420 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: and then I add a protein shake previous sponsor that 421 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 2: had a little bit of caffeine in it to it 422 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 2: because I think it so I actually do have probably 423 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 2: the caffeine of two cups of coffee, but I counted 424 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 2: as one. They also say do less alcohol, don't sleep. 425 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: You know a lot of people used to and kind 426 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 2: of still do use alcohol to sleep, but it actually 427 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 2: doesn't give you good sleep because you're dehydrated, and your 428 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 2: heart rate and all of those things. And the fun 429 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: fact they put in caffeine can stay in your body 430 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 2: for up to two twelve hours that I didn't know. 431 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: I knew it affected me twelve hours, a lot longer 432 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 2: than I thought, honestly. 433 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you just not know that either. 434 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: They also say to exercise regularly, but not three hours 435 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 2: before bedtime because it gets you hyped. Yeah, there's so 436 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 2: many things to that. And try to keep consistent bedtimes, 437 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 2: especially on weekdays or your work days, because I know 438 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: people will have different schedules, but trying to do that 439 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 2: consistency is really important. I do start getting sleepy abound 440 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 2: ten thirty eleven, and my dog make sure is to 441 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 2: tell me at ten thirty at bedtime, and she gets 442 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 2: like really agitated that we are not in bed, So 443 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: she is more on the clock than I am about that. 444 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 2: Has she made you try to go to bed too? 445 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: She gets crumpy and looks at me like, what are 446 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: we even doing here? 447 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 2: Annie is always with her if I'm not here, thank you, 448 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 2: which I'm very grateful for. And so and he has 449 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 2: experienced the peaches, just mentalness and. 450 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can feel her stare the couch. 451 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 2: Yes, and then she kind of like peeks around the corner. 452 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: If you're not following fast enough where you're at bro 453 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 2: come on, we're going to bed, so but there you go. 454 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 2: That is that conversation. Very short summary of this conversation 455 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 2: that yes, maybe women do need more sleep, but it's 456 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: not to the level like one woman needs ten hours 457 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 2: while man only need five. Again, this is the type 458 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 2: of study they have. This is fairly new and it's 459 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: just to make up for the quality. So if they 460 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 2: have the perfect partner that does everything truly fifty to fifty, 461 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 2: they may actually not need that more sleep. Who knows. 462 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: That's true.
