About this episode
Is sleeping in separate beds a red flag for your relationship — or could it save it? Dr. Michael Breus talks with clinical psychologist and sleep scientist Dr. Wendy Troxel, author of Sharing the Covers: Every Couple's Guide to Better Sleep, about why the modern assumption that intimacy requires sharing a bed doesn't hold up. They cover the stigma around snoring and sleep apnea testing, how mismatched CPAP struggles can quietly breed resentment, and share practical fixes like the Scandinavian sleep method. Plus, a listener needs help navigating a toddler who's taken over the marital bed. For more information about the episode, head here: https://sleepdoctor.com/pages/podcast. Stay up to…
