Why most people's sleep sucks and how to fix it. Yes, it's possible to have great sleep every night.

from Change Wired · host Angela Shurina

I’m Angela Shurina, master health executive coach, and I’m making the case for sleep as the most underrated high performance tool: it sharpens decisions, steadies emotions, improves workout recovery, reduces cravings, and lowers the risk of burnout that takes high achievers out of the game.We dig into the sleep toolkit using research-backed sleep science and real-world coaching patterns I see in leaders all the time. We call out the beliefs that quietly wreck results, like “I’ll sleep more when things calm down,” plus the myth that sleep should just “happen” if you get into bed.Sleep is a biological state that requires preparation, and the biggest unlock is consistency. You’ll learn why irregular bedtimes and wake times create social jet lag, how light at night suppresses melatonin, why alcohol and late meals disrupt sleep quality, and how morning sunlight, movement, and a calmer evening routine set you up for deeper sleep.I also share a simple implementation strategy so you do not try everything at once and quit, plus a short list of sleep supplements that may help support relaxation.If you want better sleep quality, better energy, and more sustainable high performance without burnout, start here, then share it with someone who treats sleep like an afterthought.
