YOU: The Owner's Manual

EP 1,227B - SLEEP, DRINK, BREATHE


Listen Later

You know I've been in this sleep game for a while now, right? Well, I'm working on this new book, "Sleep, Drink, Breathe: Wellness is too F*cking Complicated," and it's challenging a lot of what we think we know about health.

Here's the deal: sleep isn't just important - it's the cornerstone of wellness. Get this right, and a lot of other health stuff falls into place. But we're in a serious sleep crisis. Most adults are getting crap sleep, and it's wrecking their health in ways they don't even realize.

Even Volleyball player and three time Olympic gold medal winner Kerri Walsh Jennings admits that “Sleep could be the hardest thing to accomplish on my to-do list, but it always makes a difference.”

Remember when I told you about chronotypes? Bears, Lions, Wolves, and Dolphins? Knowing which one you are is like having a cheat code for better sleep and health. It's not just cool trivia - it can be a total game-changer.

I've got some sleep hacks that'll surprise you too. Like, that morning coffee? You're probably drinking it at the wrong time. And don't get me started on bedroom temperature - it could be messing with your sleep big time.

Here's what kills me: we've made wellness so damn complicated. Everyone's obsessing over green juices and cold plunges, but they're missing the basics. Sleep, hydration, breathing - get these right, and you're golden.

I've been talking about this stuff on TV, in books, you name it. I know how to break it down so people actually get it and can use it.

What do you think? Want to dive deeper into this? We could do something cool with it. Maybe I could even figure out your chronotype - trust me, it's eye-opening.

Let me know if you want to chat more and we can brainstorm. You can download my press kit here and you can check out the trailer here.
