The Executive Sleep Fix

You don't have time for eight hours of sleep advice. You have time for this.

You answer emails at 11 p.m., take calls across three time zones, fly out on red-eyes and walk into meetings running on coffee. You know sleep matters. But most sleep advice is written for people with a very different life from yours.

The Executive Sleep Fix is a short, calm, science-backed guide built for professionals and leaders whose schedules won't change anytime soon. Drawing on more than 40 published studies, it shows you the smallest set of changes that deliver the biggest return, so you think more clearly, lead with more patience and protect your long-term health.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

• Quiet a racing mind at bedtime with the five-minute to-do list technique shown in sleep-lab research to help people fall asleep faster


• End the always-on evening without looking less committed, by setting a work cut-off and a realistic buffer before bed


• Handle caffeine, alcohol and client dinners so you can keep your professional life and still sleep well


• Beat jet lag with a simple light-timing strategy for eastward and westward trips, plus a plan for short trips vs. long stays


• Sleep better in hotels with a travel kit that fits in a laptop bag


• Get through short nights with strategic naps, well-timed caffeine and smart recovery


• Lead a rested team by building a culture that rewards results, not late nights
