In today’s episode, Dr Sims dives into the science of becoming a morning person and shares her personal journey with waking up earlier since hitting the midlife transition (menopause). She talks about chronotypes—our personal preferences for when we feel most awake and productive—and how this affects our sleep and energy levels.

You’ll learn about the impact of irregular sleep patterns (aka social jet lag) on health, and why establishing a consistent sleep-wake routine is key for better overall well-being. If you’ve ever wondered if you can change your chronotype, Dr Sims shares what she found about shifting your habits gradually without going to extremes.

From using natural light to morning exercise, we discuss simple ways to adjust your routine and start your day feeling energized and clear. Tune in to discover how small changes can help you sync with your body’s rhythm and embrace the early mornings!
