Women and Sleep Apnea

New Episode Alert!

What happens when sleep health meets social media influence?

In this episode of SleepTech Talk, we sit down with Lindsay McFarland—better known as @yoursleepbff—to explore how she built a powerful platform educating thousands about sleep apnea, with a special focus on women.

Sleep apnea is often underdiagnosed in women, and Lindsay is working to change that narrative—one post at a time.

We dive into:

How Lindsay became a rising voice in sleep health on social media
Why women are often overlooked in sleep apnea diagnosis and treatment
The most common questions she gets from her audience
How education and awareness can drive better outcomes and adherence
The role of social platforms in reshaping patient engagement

Whether you're a sleep clinician, DME provider, or someone struggling with PAP adherence, this episode highlights the growing importance of meeting patients where they are—online.
