In today's show, we dig into sleep deprivation and the impact this can have on your mental and physical well-being. The long-term effects are shocking. I've been experiencing some of the short-term effects of chronic sleep deprivation, and it's not pretty. This is why I wanted to bring awareness to such an important topic.

During the episode, I talk about different sleep patterns, called your chronotype and how, if you're a night owl like me, society and children have us working against our evolutionary design. I share some of the work by Dr. Michael Breus, a Clinical Psychologist. His theory is that there are four chronotypes: lion, bear, wolf and dolphin. Being aware of your chronotype could help you get the quality sleep you need.

At no point am I offering medical advice. This is purely to bring awareness to the importance of consistent and quality sleep.
