How to Overcome Insomnia with Joseph Pannell
Manage episode 478609160 series 3248955
If your mind races the moment your head hits the pillow — you’re not alone. In this episode, I’m joined by sleep expert Joseph Pannell, who shares his personal journey through 20 years of chronic insomnia and the powerful, science-backed strategies that helped him heal. We explore the deep connection between high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, and insomnia, and what actually helps when you’re stuck in the spiral of overthinking at night. This conversation is validating, eye-opening, and full of relief for anyone who feels like rest is out of reach.
- The truth about what insomnia is (and isn’t)
- Why high achievers are more prone to sleep issues
- How to stop spiraling at night and calm your mind
- Practical behavioral shifts that support natural sleep
- What to do when anxious thoughts wake you up at 3 AM
