Ep. 78 If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting or pushed sleep to the bottom of your to-do list, this episode is your wake-up call—in the gentlest, most loving way. We invite you to rethink sleep not as a luxury, but as a declaration of self-worth.

In this episode of the Doze Podcast, Soda explores why rest is more than recovery—it's resistance. Backed by compelling research, including a 2022 study from Behavioral Sleep Medicine, Soda unpacks how self-esteem directly impacts sleep quality and why those who value themselves tend to sleep deeper and longer.

This isn’t just a wellness tip—it’s a cultural shift. 

You'll learn how to:

✨ Reframe rest as receiving, not quitting

🛋️ Build your own “sleep shelf” of soothing bedtime rituals

🧘🏽‍♀️ Add micro-rests into your day to recharge with intention

🛏️ Transform your sleep space into a reflection of how deeply you honor yourself

Whether you’re a chronic giver or someone stuck in hustle mode, this episode offers a new lens to see rest as your birthright—not something to earn.

Memorable Quotes:



“The way you treat your sleep is the way you treat yourself.”




“Receiving rest is not quitting; it’s claiming what is already yours.”




“Your best days begin with your best nights.”




“Sleep is not a luxury; it’s a reflection of your worth.”




Hit play and start honoring your need for rest—not just to feel good, but because you deserve to.
