Episode #205: Sleep Divorce - How Sleeping Apart Can Be Better for Your Relationship

March 3, 2026·27 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

We've been culturally trained to believe sharing a bed equals closeness - but what if sleeping separately actually improves connection, intimacy, and overall happiness? In this episode, I share why I've had a sleep divorce from the very beginning of my relationship, how it's strengthened our marriage (not harmed it), and why protecting sleep might be one of the most loving decisions a couple can make. We'll talk about the myths, the benefits, the social stigma, and why a well-rested partner is simply a better partner. If you've ever wondered whether separate sleep means something is wrong… or secretly thought it might be amazing… this episode is for you.   FREEBIES: Free Thyroid Guide + Video Series: https://www.elleruss.com/thyroid-guide Free Confidence eBook & Workbook: https://www.elleruss.com/7secrets Elle's website: https://www.elleruss.com   #theellerussshow
