Insomniac / Sleep with Me Host (with Drew Ackerman)
Sleep is a such an incredibly important part of life. We all know that. Strangely, it may also be the most universally taken for granted part of life that we all share. When we are sleeping good and able to fall asleep easily we hardly give sleep a second thought. It’s just…something you do. When we can’t sleep, our bed can become a source of anxiety, our mind a prison, and our life a nightmare. It’s the number one foundational cornerstone to both physical and mental health. Today’s guest, Drew Ackerman, is very familiar with the pains of not being able to fall asleep. He has struggled with insomnia since childhood. Four years ago he decided to do something radical, and incredibly interesting, to help people like himself. He created a podcast where he tells bedtime stories for people struggling to fall asleep. Not too exciting, sometimes downright boring, the exact type of thing you would naturally fall asleep to. Drew’s podcast has since exploded and he helps hundreds of thousands of people fall asleep every month.
