I won’t give too long of an intro for Dr Breus today because you can check out Episode 44 of the show where we spoke in depth on his achievements – it’s got a ton of tips, hacks, and secrets to help you sleep better.
For a brief overview, Dr Breus is a four-time bestselling author, clinical psychologist, and sleep expert. He has appeared all over television, including Oprah, The Today Show, and on the Dr Oz show more than 40 times.
When he’s not doing media appearances, Dr Breus works with some of the most successful individuals on the planet who want to perform at their peak with as little sleep as possible.
