What if your exhaustion, brain fog, or cravings aren’t a motivation problem—but a sleep problem no one’s diagnosed yet?

In this episode of Extend, I’m joined by Dr. Michael Breuss, a sleep specialist, and we dig into why so many high performers are chronically under-recovered, why sleep disorders go undetected for years, and how wearables are both helping and hurting.

We talk about why 8 hours might be the wrong goal, how your chronotype should determine your schedule, why snoring isn’t harmless, and the link between GLP-1s and sleep apnea. You’ll also learn how mouth tape works, the surprising truth about blue light, and why most hydration habits fail.

Dr. Michael Breus is a clinical psychologist, board-certified sleep specialist, and the author of five books on sleep. He’s worked with Olympic athletes, celebrities, and CEOs—and in this conversation, he’s bringing you the same level of clarity and insight.
