431: Optimizing Circadian Rhythms, Sleep is a Skill and Daylight & Darkness Management with Mollie Eastman

Mollie Eastman is the Founder of Sleep Is A Skill, a company she created after facing her own battles with sleep and insomnia that optimizes people's sleep through a unique blend of technology, accountability, and behavioral changes. You might be surprised to learn that roughly 33% of adults struggle with sleep. We dig into her expertise on issues like sleep apnea and the warning signs that both men and women should be aware of. We'll also talk about the benefit of naturally increasing melatonin to improve our overall wellness, in addition to a better sleep. Mollie also discusses some of the technology, tools, and wearables available, like Oura Rings, that can help us sort out our sleep issues and optimize our Circadian rhythms. Above all else, Mollie will help you understand that getting good sleep isn't something that just happens if we're lucky. It's a skill we can all learn and improve with the right tools and knowledge.

Go ahead, google Dad and you’ll find Dad Bod, Dad Jokes, Dad Weed, etc. Culturally, it’s a Homer Simpson mentality, and it’s BS.   Our community is built for solid men. Men with range. Those who are badass, and know there’s still more to learn, together.   Most guys find it hard to find “their crew.” Finding other committed men, who are successful in life, and want to put family first – these guys are rare. Is this you? In FRD, hundreds of men from all over the world show up for each other, to share resources and raise the bar of fatherhood (our core values) If you’re reading this, you want to grow.  Podcasts are great, but guys… when you’re ready to stop just listening to content, and want to JOIN the conversations – the FRD brotherhood is ready for you.   One more thing…  Has this podcast helped you?
