Are you actually toxic… or are you just chronically exhausted?
 In this episode of MissJudged, Alyssa Pettinato sits down with sleep expert Todd Anderson—who wastes absolutely no time roasting her for proudly running on six hours of sleep and believing she’s “thriving” because her Oura Ring told her so. (Todd would like everyone to know: that’s not thriving.)

Together, they break down how sleep deprivation quietly hijacks your personality, emotional stability, attachment style, libido, and romantic relationships—especially for millennials who are burnt out, overstimulated, and under-rested.

In this episode, we unpack:

  • Are we needing a new relationship or just cranky?
  • Are we going to work impaired?
  • Can sleep hurt our relationships?!
  • How many hours do you REALLY need
  • How does sleep impact libido?
  • Why sleep impacts your death and potential illnesses
  • You SHOULD go to bed angry (what!?)
  • Are sleep aides helpful??

If you’ve been snapping at your partner, feeling emotionally off, questioning your sex drive, or wondering why everything feels harder than it should—this episode might save you thousands in therapy by confirming one thing:

You’re probably not toxic.
 You’re just tired.
