Demystifying narcolepsy and other sleep disorders

Sleep is essential to our health and well-being, but millions of Americans have chronic or ongoing sleep disorders. Additionally, sleep disorders are often difficult to diagnose. With over 80 different sleep disorders in existence, it’s important that we all increase our sleep education and build more awareness in our communities.

On this episode, Deloitte Chief Well-being Officer, Jen Fisher, talks with Lindsay Scola, speaker, writer, and part of the Rising Voices of Narcolepsy program at Project Sleep, about her narcolepsy diagnosis journey, and on expanding conversations around patient advocacy and sleep disorders.

I didn’t understand that my tired was different from everyone around me. The more we can have these conversations and the more people realize they’re not alone in this or hear that maybe their tired is different, the better we can all feel about this down the road.

– Lindsay Scola, writer, producer, public speaker, and impact strategist
