Episode notes

When he first decided to join the navy at the marine recruiter actually talked to a seal and had the guy talk to me. He said Well, it sounds like your biggest problem is gonna be running because I've all they done it Like I ran track and field but I did like 400 meters right like that was the furthest I'd ever run in my life uh, I'd never done a mile on the track. So yeah, you're all fast twitch and yeah, so the runs kicked your ass. Yeah, um, I I struggled and I knew I would because I I mean I struggled in preparation.

After serving with the SEALs, Doc entered medical school at the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences (USUHS) in Bethesda. Doc graduated in 2004, 1 year after the birth of his third child. He interned in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Balboa Naval Hospital San Diego in 2005 and subsequently completed a Navy residency in Hyperbarics and Diving Medicine in 2006.

From 2009 to 2013, Doc served as an Undersea Medical Officer at Naval Special Warfare Group One. While there, he led the development of and supervised the group’s first Sports Medicine Rehabilitation center. Doc saw firsthand the effect that low sleep and high stress had on the young SEALs who were under his care, men who he realized looked a whole lot like himself just a few years before. It was during this time that he began to develop the all-natural Sleep Remedy that is now the supplement of choice for Navy SEALs, pro athletes, C-level executives, and thousands of others. Henry, now Sleep Remedy's CFO, was one of the first to experience the life altering impact of Sleep Remedy.
