Host Dustin Diefenderfer interviews former Navy SEAL John Doolittle, who shares his extensive experience in addressing mental health, sleep, and performance challenges faced by first responders, veterans, and active-duty military. Doolittle discusses his 25-year Navy career, including his work with SOCOM’s Preservation of the Force and Family program, where he helped validate Magnetic EEG Guided Resonance Therapy (MERT) to improve sleep and mental health. He highlights the critical link between sleep deprivation and issues like depression, anxiety, and suicide, emphasizing how even an extra hour of sleep can transform lives. Doolittle also underscores the importance of trusted relationships and social connectedness in combating mental health struggles, drawing from personal experiences, including the loss of his friend Joe Price to suicide. His insights offer practical hacks for enhancing performance and well-being in high-stress professions.
