The Survivor’s Guide To Thriving

Ep. 117: Are You Underestimating the Power of Sleep? with Richard Jacobs & Mark Jewell


Listen Later

If you've listened to this podcast before, you know that we put a big emphasis on taking care of yourself – exercise, eating well, meditation, reading. And, now, it's time to dig into the one thing we ignore all too often – getting enough sleep.

In this conversation, Mark Jewell sits down with inventor Richard Jacobs to talk about:

  • What Richard noticed about himself that led him to learn more about the importance of rest
  • How "I'm not sleeping well" can mean several different things
  • The stories we tell ourselves about sleep
  • How to set yourself up for success with a good night's rest
  • ...and more!

Sleep is one of those things that we tend to take for granted, but can make a huge difference in our ability to thrive at work and beyond. Enjoy!
