    He'd Never Had a PSA Test. Then His Friend Ordered One. | Sam Shaheen and Jimmy Greene

    Three people who could have built their lives anywhere chose Saginaw, Michigan.Dr. Sam Shaheen spent 30 years as a surgeon, led CMU Medical Education Partners, and now builds the city block by block as president of Shaheen Development. Jimmy Greene came over from Flint, says Saginaw "adopted" him, and helped bring the Memorial Cup to the Dow. In Episode 3 of Sweet Dreams, we talk about investing your career back in your hometown, the Medical Diamond and Saginaw's new medical school, and the 25th season of the Saginaw Spirit.Then we talk about what all of it costs at night: three decades of surgical call, game nights that end after 10 PM, waking up at 4:30 no matter what, sleep trackers and "orthosomnia," and Jimmy's prostate cancer journey, including the PSA test he only took because Sam ordered it. I close with a sleep prescription for each of them, and they each get to ask the sleep doctor one question.Presented by Aeroflow Sleep.

    She Built a Gym Empire on Almost No Sleep. At 42, It Came Knocking. | Sarah Fechter

    Sarah Fechter built Sarah Fechter Fitness in Saginaw from nothing in 2005: seven days a week, all hours, the only employee, running on grief and whatever sleep was left over.Then her 40s arrived and the sleep debt came due.In Episode 2 of Sweet Dreams, Sarah tells me what the grind actually cost her, why she now protects her sleep "better than I protect my home," and what the women she coaches (35 and up) are telling her about 3 AM wake-ups and running on five hours. I explain the sleep debt math nobody wants to hear, why you can't catch up on the weekend, and what's really happening when you wake up at 2:30 every night. Then I put on the white coat and write Sarah a sleep prescription.Presented by Aeroflow Sleep.
