Ladies Don't Have Insomnia. They Just Get a Lot Done at 3AM.
From That's Not Very Ladylike · 16:52
Show by Tracey Willingham
This week I'm getting into that moment at 3:07 in the morning when your eyes are open and nothing woke you up. No noise, no kid, no dog. You replay the work conversation from earlier, this time with better lines. You do the countdown math on how many hours you can still get if you fall asleep right now. And by breakfast you've turned the whole thing into a joke about being a night owl, and you call that getting a lot done.We get into why waking at 3AM is all about how we took one of the most measurable, most researched, most treatable symptoms of this transition and turned it into a productivity brag. We get into how a woman's sleep has always been treated as interruptible, how rising while it's yet night got framed as virtue, and who benefits when she quietly runs on five hours for a decade and never takes up an appointment slot.
