#134 Unlocking Sleep: Tackling the Root Cause with Elina, The Sleep Expert | Women on Fire®

Description

It’s time to wake up (pun intended!) because today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to none other than Elina Winnel, The Sleep Expert.

Elina isn’t your average "sleep whisperer"— she’s a media darling, regularly sharing her expertise on major TV networks. After battling chronic insomnia herself, she didn’t just hit snooze on the problem.

She developed a science-backed approach to tackling sleep issues at the root—there are no quick fixes here.

Elina’s method is all about getting to the heart of the problem and transforming your sleep.

She’s helped countless people who once thought restful, rejuvenating sleep was just a dream (see what I did there?).

So grab your favourite pillow, get cosy, and enjoy this conversation.
