ep 125 Social Jetlag: The Hidden Sleep Disorder Most Adults Have

Most people think jet lag only happens after a long flight—but millions of adults experience a version of it every single week. In this episode of Somnilopod, we explore social jetlag, the hidden circadian disruption caused by shifting sleep schedules between workdays and weekends. Jay breaks down the science behind your body's internal clock, why Monday mornings can feel so brutal, and how irregular sleep timing may quietly affect metabolism, mood, and energy—especially in midlife. You'll also learn simple, practical strategies to stabilize your sleep schedule and help your circadian rhythm work with you instead of against you. If you've ever wondered why sleeping in on the weekend sometimes leaves you feeling worse, this episode explains why.
