In today's episode, I sit down with Amy Bender Ph.D. and we talk all things sleep science. Dr. Bender is a Senior Research Scientist at Calgary Counselling Centre and an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Kinesiology at the University of Calgary.

She received her Ph.D. and Master of Science degrees in Experimental Psychology from Washington State University specializing in sleep EEG.

She has helped develop the only validated sleep screening tool for athletes and has implemented sleep optimization strategies for numerous Canadian Olympic and professional teams. Her current interests focus on how sleep and exercise interventions can improve mental health outcomes.
