hey! i'm lindsay!
respiratory therapist and sleep & CPAP content creator
i'm lindsay mcfarland, a 🇨🇦 west coast girly living with my husband and our two rescue pups, Penny & Willow.
i went to school for respiratory therapy and i have over 10 years experience working in hospitals, home care and now on the CPAP manufacturing side at Resmed.
my husband told me I snored and I lived in denial with that for a long time. after all my years of working with CPAP, i had to dive in as a patient. despite all my knowledge, i am NOT a perfect CPAP patient. i throw it off in the middle of the night, i get frustrated and sometimes go nights without it.
i struggled with the stigma of CPAP and sleep apnea so i decided to start @yoursleepbff to make wearing CPAP not so scary for myself and others. i wanted a place where we could learn and lean on each other while rocking a unicorn 🦄 or an elephant 🐘.
so welcome to the side of the internet where sleep nerds unite.
Lindsay, YOUR sleep bff

breaking the stigma around cpap & sleep apnea
my goal is to break the stigma around CPAP and sleep apnea. people deserve to feel better, get a good night’s sleep, and not feel shame about using the tools and help available.
yes, it might look a little silly and no one actually wants to wear a CPAP, but this community we’re building is going to rock it anyway.
