Are you sleeping through the night?
Wednesday May 26, 2021
Wednesday May 26, 2021
On the latest episode of the Wealth Wisdom podcast, we divert away from finance and focus on something we all need: a good night's sleep.
Even though you might think you're sleeping properly, often, that's not the case. I talk about my personal experience with that in this conversation with Dr. Glenn Landry, sleep expert from Elite Sleep.
Back in the pre-COVID days (remember those?) we hosted packed to capacity "Sleepy Dinners" with Glenn as the speaker. We always received rave reviews on these thanks to Glenn's innate ability to communicate information about the importance of sleep to his audience. Some of you can attest to this 🙂
This podcast is a taster of what our Sleepy Dinners are about and what Glenn does for his clients. We hope you find some valuable takeaways from this conversation. I certainly felt that way by responding with "Wow!" every time Glenn answered a question.
