Send a text

Sleep is not a luxury, and for first responders, poor sleep is not just inconvenient. It can impact mood, decision-making, trauma recovery, physical health, and even long-term brain function. 

In this conversation, Cinnamon sits down with Dr. Leah Kaylor, licensed clinical and prescribing psychologist and the FBI’s sleep expert, to unpack what happens when responders run on empty and why sleep has to be part of the resilience conversation.

From sleep deprivation and sleep apnea to nightmares, alcohol, shift work, and sleep medications, this episode is packed with practical truth and hard-hitting science. If you have ever said, “I’ll sleep when I’m dead,” this one may change your mind.
