Ever find yourself tossing and turning in a hotel bed, wondering why the magic of sleep eludes you just when you need it the most?   Join me in this round table episode to unravel the secrets of sleep and its profound effects on our well-being, particularly as we age. I join Kristen Weitzel and The Biohacker Babes - Lauren and Renee- to uncover the delicate dance between nurturing our social lives and honoring the rejuvenation sleep offers.   Imagine managing your slumber in the tight confines of van life or the unfamiliar settings of a hotel room—how do you find your sleep rhythm there? We share our trials and triumphs as we strive for sleep efficiency, discuss the fascinating bio-individuality of sleep supplements, and offer an array of strategies to combat the stress that comes with non-traditional living arrangements. We provide insights into personalizing your approach to rest, regardless of where life takes you.   Lastly, we delve into sleep sanctuaries, the power of darkened rooms (we talk about a great new entry in the blackout shades space - UBLOCKOUT Shades), cooling mattresses, and the innovative Moonbird device for better breathing. We also celebrate the potential of CGM devices to enhance our understanding of sleep's relationship with our diets and habits. So, pull up a chair (or a pillow) and join us for a discussion brimming with anecdotes, tips, and biohacks that promise to help guide you into the best sleep!    To try UBLOCKOUT Shades use code NAT10 (save 10%) and shop here.    Thank you to our sponsors for making this episode possible: LVLUP: Use code NAT10 to save 10% off at https://lvluphealth.com/   Find more from Lauren Sambataro and Renee Belz:  Instagram: @biohacker_babes  Website: https://thebiohackerbabes.com/ Podcast: Biohacker Babes   Find more from Kristen Weitzel:  Instagram: @wellpowerpodcast  Website: https://www.wellpower.life/  Podcast: WELLPOWER   Find more from Nathalie: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmholC48MqRC50UffIZOMOQ Join Nat's Membership Community: https://www.natniddam.com/bsp-community Sign up for Nats Newsletter: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/i7d5m0 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathalieniddam/ Website: NatNiddam.com Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/biohackingsuperhumanperformance   What We discuss: (00:00) Challenges and Strategies for Sleep (06:50) Managing Sleep in Unconventional Living (16:43) Optimizing Sleep Quality and Environment (27:36) Importance of Sleep Environment Factors (38:01) Investing in Quality Sleep Solutions (44:42) Supplement Mislabeling and Melatonin Usage (56:13) Exploring Health Trends and Habits (01:06:15) Sleep and Wellness Hacks and Tips (01:15:37) Biohacking and Wellness Podcast Collaboration Key Takeaways: There are many lifestyle factors and tools that can impact sleep quality, including light exposure, temperature, sound, supplementation, rituals, and more. It's important to experiment and find what works best for you as an individual. Blocking out light in the bedroom is crucial for good sleep. Strategies include using blackout shades, sleep masks, and covering any LED lights. Getting natural bright light exposure, especially in the morning, helps regulate circadian rhythms.  

Nearly 350,000 people have been displaced in Gaza, since Israel launched retaliatory air strikes and created a blockade of the area. In Gaza's hospitals, where thousands of people are being treated, power is running out. Women and children are chief among those affected. Emma speaks to Lyse Doucet, the BBC's Chief International Correspondent, Najla Shawa, a humanitarian worker who lives in the west side of Gaza City with her family and Adele Raemer, a grandmother in Israel. Emmy winning actor, Laura Linney, joins Emma Barnett to discuss her new film, The Miracle Club, in which she stars alongside other film icons, Maggie Smith and Kathy Bates. Emma asks her how much she misses playing Wendy Byrde in the much-acclaimed long-running TV series Ozark. 'My Boyfriend Lives with with My Husband,' was the intriguing headline of an article in the Guardian newspaper recently; While Caroline and the children she shares with her husband Niel live in Cheltenham, Niel is living with Caroline's boyfriend in Scotland. Both Caroline and Niel describe their unconventional family living arrangements to Emma and explain how it came about and why it works for them. Dawn French has been making people laugh as a writer, comedian and actor, for more than 30 years. Her celebrated shows include French and Saunders, The Vicar of Dibley, and Jam and Jerusalem. She joins Emma to discuss her new book about the hilarious gaffes that she made in life, as part of her one-woman mission to celebrate what it means to be gloriously, messily human, rather than striving for Instagram-style-perfection.

Most people follow the cultural norms, go to school, get a job in line with what you went to school for, get married, have children and so on and so on. My incredible guest Catherine Farquharson is a Mindset & Personal Development coach that helps her clients form a new vibrant love of life with a sense of purpose and what's possible. And we're talking about how Catherine grew up in a conventional home, with a conventional way of thinking, yet still has really looked inward to choose to live the life she wanted to live. By way of not having the conventional job, or wedding or making the conventional decision about children. This episode gives you great insight into how things can be different. Not that they should be this way or that way. But that you can look within yourself and choose to live the life you want. And….you can also receive the right to change your mind at any point.
