Rest Protocol to Beat Your Best: how elite performers match work with time off and breaks.

You can be incredibly driven and still be held back by the one thing you keep postponing: recovery.After DMing 50 founders, business owners, and leaders to ask what limits their performance, I got a surprisingly consistent answer: rest, recovery, and sleep.Not strategy. Not hustle. The basics we all “know,” but rarely protect on the calendar.Drawing from the book *Peak Performance* by Steve Magnus, I share the work-rest rhythm that shows up again and again in research and elite training.We also dig into the Roger Bannister story and why breakthrough moments often arrive during the incubation phase, not while you’re grinding.Then I get personal about what it feels like to wake up flat, lose creativity, and think you might want to quit, and why that’s often a sign to rest, not to walk away.You’ll leave with practical recovery tools to reset high performance.If you’re chasing your next level goal, this is your reminder to build a rest strategy that matches it.Subscribe, share this with a high performer who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find a healthier path to peak performance.Find the full protocol on my Substack Blog: "I asked 50 founders what’s killing their performance. They all said the same thing."Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina  Certified Health, Sleep, Performance & Executive Coach 360 with 18 years of experience helping people change to feel, be and do their best.
