    Sleep, Relationships, and the Myth of “Sleep Divorce” with Dr. Wendy Troxel

    Evan opens episode 102 by discussing co-parenting logistics around summer camp during divorce, then introduces the episode’s focus on sleep and relationships with guest Dr. Wendy Troxel, a sleep scientist and clinical psychologist. On the docket, Evan argues most “blindside divorces” reflect long-standing issues, and he frames “pickleball divorce” as a relationship problem, not a sport problem. In overrated/underrated, Evan calls expert witnesses and early prenup discussions underrated, and labels the Stanley Cup and Costco parking lots overrated. Troxel explains sleep is a social behavior, addresses stigma around sleeping separately, outlines the bidirectional cycle between sleep loss and relationship conflict, and recommends communication strategies and a nightly phone-free ritual (high-low-compliment). She notes divorce can disrupt sleep architecture, prioritizing sleep regularity and support, and criticizes the term “sleep divorce,” citing data that 31% of couples sleep apart occasionally.   Topics 00:49 Summer Camp Co-Parenting 03:46 Sleep Episode Setup 04:55 Docket Blindside Divorce 07:17 Docket Pickleball Drama 10:43 Overrated Underrated Begins 10:59 Expert Witnesses Matter 12:51 Prenups Early Talk 14:19 Sports And Costco Rants 18:49 Sponsor Break 20:40 Interview Dr Wendy Troxel 23:12 Social Sleep And Stigma 25:24 Sleep and Relationship Health 26:22 Sleep Communication Loop 28:34 Therapy and Sleeping Apart 31:23 Stigma and Sleep History 34:33 Dating and Chronotypes 37:28 How to Talk About Sleep 39:03 Divorce and Sleep Recovery 42:11 Sleep Divorce Explained 44:58 Gender Differences in Sleep 47:49 Kids and Family Sleep Habits 49:54 Nightly Ritual for Connection 52:28 They Said It Quotes Game 58:18 Infant Sleep Side Topic 01:00:10 Final Wrap and Thanks
