Everybody's journey has moments that shape who they become.

Moments of courage.
Moments of faith.
Moments when the path forward isn’t clear, but you keep walking anyway.

Thank you Dr. Tomeka Day for inviting our founder and CEO Subaila Zia, MD, MBA, FCCP, FAASM on your podcast, "The Wholeness Walk". Our founder and CEO, Dr. Subaila Zia shares her journey to sleep medicine.

On this International Women’s Day 2026, Dr. Zia is reflecting on the power of that journey and the people who support women along the way.

This conversation centers on the real journey women walk as they grow, challenges they face and courage they have to achieve our goals. It was a beautiful reminder that our stories matter. Every step, every lesson, and every season of becoming is part of something meaningful.

Thank you, Dr. Tomeka Day, for creating a space that uplifts people to walk in wholeness and purpose. And on a day dedicated to celebrating women, we also want to acknowledge the men who tirelessly support us along the way. The fathers, brothers, spouses, partners, mentors, colleagues, and friends who encourage our growth, champion our voices, and walk beside women in respect and partnership.

If you are reflecting on your own journey today, we invite you to listen. You might hear something that speaks to where you are right now.

To every woman continuing to rise, grow, and walk boldly in her purpose, keep going. Let us know in comments if it resonated with you.

⏰ This Sunday, we “Spring Forward” But your body doesn’t adjust as easily as the clock.

That one-hour change in Daylight Saving Time might seem tiny, but it can throw off the body’s internal clock. This clock, called the circadian rhythm, controls sleep, mood, and health.

Real-world data consistently show what happens in the days following the clock change:
• Sleep quality drops
• Accidents increase
• Heart attack and stroke risks rise
• Mood and mental well-being take a hit

A few small steps can help ease the transition this week:
🌅 Get morning sunlight to reset your internal clock.
🛌 Prioritize 7+ hours of sleep whenever possible.
⏰ Move your bedtime 15–20 minutes earlier for a few nights to embrace the change.

Sleep is not just rest. It is the foundation of physical health, mental clarity, and long-term well-being.

As we move into the new time, be patient with your body and give it the rest it needs.

If you're a runner, sleep matters. 🏃‍♂️

Runners who consistently sleep less, toss and turn, or wake up unrefreshed are nearly twice as likely to get injured.

That translates to about a 68% chance of injury within a year. 📊

And considering that up to 90% of runners experience an injury at some point, sleep becomes impossible to ignore.

Over 620 million people run worldwide. 🌎

Training plans are optimized. 📈 Nutrition is tracked. 🥗 Shoes are analyzed down to the gram. 👟

Yet one of the most powerful performance tools is often neglected: sleep. 😴

Here’s why it matters:
• Poor sleep slows muscle repair, delaying recovery from your runs. 🧬
• It reduces focus and reaction time, increasing the risk of accidental injury. ⚡
• It weakens overall recovery and adaptation, limiting progress over time. 🔁

Sleep isn’t passive. It’s when your body rebuilds, recalibrates, and strengthens. 💪

Train hard. Eat smart. But remember—sleep is your strongest recovery tool.

Tonight’s sleep could be the key to protecting tomorrow’s run. 🌅🏃‍♀️

February 28 is National Public Sleeping Day!

It's your chance to sleep or take a nap without feeling guilty.
Rest is not laziness. It’s biology.

Your brain doesn’t need more caffeine. It needs recovery.

A short, intentional 20-minute nap can:

✔ Boost your mood ✔ Improve focus ✔ Reduce stress ✔ Recharge your energy
Napping helps your brain reset stress hormones and restore alertness.

Today, we’re giving you permission:

👉 Find a comfy spot.

👉 Set a 20-minute timer.

👉 Close your eyes and reset.

If you’re constantly exhausted, relying on caffeine, or struggling with focus, your body may be asking for more than a nap, it may need a deeper sleep evaluation.

A moment of pride for all of us at Telemedora

We are proud to congratulate our CEO, Dr. Subaila Zia, MD, MBA, FCCP

Spending the whole day in bed scrolling or watching shows but TikTok calls it “bed-rotting.” It sounds cozy… but it may be harming your brain, body, and sleep.

While intentional rest is healthy, staying in bed for hours while awake can:

• Disrupt your circadian rhythm (body clock)
• Lower mood and motivation
• Worsen sleep quality
• Increase isolation and inactivity

Some experts call it “emotional junk food” very harmful as a daily habit.

Real recovery comes from intentional rest and small actions that restore your mind and body:
☀️ 10 minutes of sunlight
🚶 Moving body
👫 Connecting with someone
🌱 Doing one small productive task

This is not giving up comfort but upgrading comfort into healing and better sleep.

❤️ If you’ve ever “bed rotted,” you’re not alone and awareness is the first step.

🔥 Game day energy = Goated. But sleep? That’s the real MVP tonight 🏈😴

🚨 This one mistake could be ruining your CPAP

Using tap, mineral, or “spring” water in your CPAP humidifier? Stop right now.

While these waters are safe to drink, they contain minerals that build up inside your machine, causing scale, bacteria growth, poor airflow, and a shorter CPAP lifespan 😬

💧 Distilled water is the only safe choice. No minerals. No residue. Cleaner air. Better sleep.

Quick reminder: clean your CPAP water chamber weekly with mild soap and warm water.

Save this before your next refill 💙

Comment “CPAP” if you want a cleaning checklist 👇

Missing sleep quietly taking years off your life 😴⏳

Poor sleep is linked to higher death risk in every U.S. state and may impact longevity more than diet, exercise, or loneliness.

When you sleep, your brain goes into cleanup mode 🧠✨ It clears toxins, reduces inflammation, and restores healthy blood flow.

Skip those 7–9 hours, and the brain doesn’t get enough time to reset.

The result? More stress, more hunger, worse decisions, and a cycle that keeps repeating night after night 🔁

A tired brain struggles to make good choices which makes it even harder to sleep well the next night.

The good news? You don’t need a miracle fix.

Even going to bed just 15 minutes earlier can start shifting the cycle in the right direction ⏰ Put the phone down 📵

Pause the Netflix episode 📺 Choose rest because your future health depends on it 💙

💬 Be honest: what’s the biggest thing stealing your sleep right now?
