How Sleep Shapes Connection | Dr. Wendy Troxel | EDGE Webinar | 21 August
You love your partner. But not their snoring. Or the blanket tug-of-war. Or the fact that they’re out cold by 9 PM while you’re just getting started.
When we talk about relationships, we talk about trust, intimacy and communication. But we rarely talk about sleep - even though it’s the one thing you share every night.
Here’s the reality: 78% of Asian couples already sleep in separate beds. We lead the world in what’s now called "sleep divorce".
In this myth-busting EDGE session, Dr. Wendy Troxel -Couples’ Sleep Expert, Bestselling Author and TEDx speaker with 2.6M+ views - reveals how sleep shapes your relationship in silent, surprising ways.
