72: Learning from Ahna de Vena — Global Sleep Health Leader

Are You Struggling to Sleep Well?  In this episode of Wellbeing Interrupted, I sit down with Ahna de Vena — a global sleep health leader, educator, and founder of the Sleep & Dream Foundation and REVIVE Global — to talk about why so many of us find sleep difficult, and what we can actually do about it. If you’ve ever felt wired at bedtime, scared of the night, or just plain disconnected from rest — this episode will help you see sleep in a whole new way.  Key Episode Takeaways We all have the ability to sleep well — we just need to remember how. Quick fixes don’t work: true sleep recovery takes care, time, and compassion. Rest is still valuable, even if sleep doesn’t come easily every night. Sensitivity isn’t a weakness — it’s often a clue to what we need. There is hope, even if you’ve struggled with sleep for years.  Show Resources Ahna’s website: ahnadevena.com CD Sleep Well Tonight: ahnadevena.com/sleep-well-tonight-cd or purchase in amazon https://a.co/d/6aUu1WhThe Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron   About Ahna de Vena Ahna de Vena is a global sleep health leader and founder of the Sleep & Dream Foundation.
