Summary

I'm deeply passionate about busting the dangerous myth that you need less sleep as you age. The truth is, quality sleep becomes even more critical as we get older, especially when we're working hard to build muscle and recover from workouts. In this episode, I share my battle-tested sleep strategies that I've used personally and with thousands of clients. You'll discover why proper sleep timing matters, how to create the perfect bedroom environment, and the supplements that can transform your sleep quality. After helping Broadway performers, news anchors, and rock stars fix their sleep patterns, I've seen firsthand how even the most disrupted sleep schedules can be repaired with the right approach.

What you'll learn:

  • Why the "I'll sleep when I'm dead" mentality actually gets you there faster

  • How alcohol sabotages your deep sleep cycles and creates a vicious cycle

  • The perfect bedroom temperature for optimal sleep (it's colder than you think!)

  • My power-down hour routine that signals your body it's time for rest

  • Travel hacks to beat jet lag and maintain your sleep quality anywhere

  • Why your eating window timing dramatically impacts sleep quality

  • Simple supplement strategies to support deep, restorative sleep
