In this episode, Charles and Dan unpack key insights from The Diary of a CEO conversation with sleep scientist Matthew Walker — exploring how modern life undermines rest, what’s actually happening in your brain while you sleep, and the small, practical changes that can improve energy, focus, and overall well-being.

We discuss:

  • Why sleep loss affects every system in the body
  • The myths around caffeine, naps, and “catching up” on weekends
  • What REM sleep really does for emotional regulation
  • Simple steps to build a better nightly routine
