Episode Details

Are you sabotaging your success with bad sleep?

If you’re burning the candle at both ends, this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast is a wake-up call you don’t wanna miss!

I’m resharing an absolute powerhouse conversation from our private mastermind with Dr. Michael Breus, aka The Sleep Doctor. This guy is a clinical psychologist and sleep medicine expert who’s worked with top-level entrepreneurs, athletes, and high performers to optimize their sleep for maximum productivity, success, and—most importantly—well-being.

In this episode, Dr. Breus breaks down the science behind high-performance sleep, covering everything from radical honesty in relationships to how your health impacts your business success. Spoiler alert: If you’re not prioritizing your sleep, you’re leaving money AND energy on the table!

One of the biggest game-changers we dive into is chronotypes—your body’s natural sleep rhythm. Understanding whether you’re a Lion, Bear, Wolf, or Dolphin can seriously level up your productivity and help you work with your body instead of against it.

Dr. Breus doesn’t just tell us what to do—he also lays down some hard truths about the biggest sleep disruptors.
Alcohol & Caffeine: Think that nightcap is helping you relax? Think again! And don’t even get me started on those late-day coffee runs.
Melatonin Myths: Is it really the magic sleep pill? Dr. Breus breaks it down and shares what works.
Gender & Sleep Differences: Ladies, did you know your sleep needs shift throughout your menstrual cycle? Understanding these changes can be a game-changer for your energy and focus!

Look, I get it—entrepreneurs are wired to push hard and hustle 24/7. But if you’re skimping on sleep, you’re not just wrecking your energy levels—you’re hurting your business, your relationships, and your overall happiness.

This episode is packed with actionable sleep hacks to help you optimize your rest, boost your performance, and wake up ready to dominate the day.
