On this episode - Sleep Hacks Every Entrepreneur Needs To Know
Tanya was recently diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism and went to see a naturopath about it just to learn that her SLEEP schedule – or rather lack of sleep schedule – was having a much bigger impact on her health than she realized.
In this episode, you’ll hear
- WHY sleep is so important for you
- The 3 SIMPLE hacks to get more sleep
- How a sleep schedule can make you more productive throughout your day.
- This Sleep Hack will make you POP out of bed in the morning WITHOUT an alarm.
- The easy “healthy habits” that can make your life easier while making you more successful as an entrepreneur [#bonus]
- Why it FEELS like you’re more “creative” at night & the reason this might not be a good thing!
What is Melatonin?
A hormone that’s made by the pineal gland in the brain, that helps control your daily sleep-wake cycles.
Your body’s internal clock (also known as your circadian rhythm) influences how much melatonin the pineal gland makes, and so does the amount of light that you're exposed to each day.
Typically, melatonin levels start to rise in the mid-to-late evening, after the sun has set. They stay elevated for most of the night while you’re in the dark. Then, they drop in the early morning as the sun rises, causing you to awaken.
Melatonin is Available as a Natural Sleep Aid:
At drugstores and natural-food stores, you can buy melatonin supplements, which are often used by those who suffer from jet lag, shift-work-related sleep troubles, or insomnia. These supplements come in pill, liquid, chewable, or lozenge forms, in doses ranging from one to 10 milligrams.
For insomnia, it’s best to take a melatonin supplement 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime. That way, it can put you in the mood to snooze by the time you want to turn out your lights for the night.
Keep in mind, though, that melatonin supplements can negatively interact with many different medications, so be sure to check with your doctor before taking the sleep-inducing aid.

There are a lot of people out there who speak about "chasing the money" [ie. whatever get rich QUICK scheme they're selling you that week - drop shipping, selling courses, creating an app, etc.]
... But what if that "get rich quick scheme" doesn't inspire you?
When you're putting your blood, sweat, and tears, into making your business successful, the last thing you want is to feel "uninspired" by what you've built when it's all said and done!
On this episode Mike and Tanya discuss...
- How allowing the narrative of "chasing the money" or "money being the most important thing" can leave you feeling in your business...
- Is it OK to be an "entrepreneur" if making as much money as possible isn't your focus?
- Should you choose the business strategy that will make you the most money?
- Is making money everything?
- Should you change what you're doing if you know of a strategy that will make you MORE money?
- The importance of having a BLUEPRINT for YOUR dream business rather than building someone else's DREAM business.
- How to identify what "success" looks like to YOU so you can always feel like the richest person in the room!

It's been two years since we launched the How We Hustle Podcast, so now we're checking in and getting some clarity on what direction we're taking it. Going forward, it's going to be more about "being" and less about the "doing".
What we've found is that what resonates the most is "realness", so that's what we're going to do more of. This means that sharing the journey, for better or for worse, will always be our priority.
✅ Why we are moving back into congruency with ourselves.
✅ Why we want to do less "hiding".
✅ And once again, we get embrace vulnerability.

The journey has ups, downs, and stagnant periods, and these different parts of the journey can cause us to second guess what's we've done, and where we're going. Looking around at what others are doing, especially those who are not running their own business, can be toxic, it can cause us to compare ourselves to them, and judge our own worth and "success" based on what others are doing. In this episode, we explore this conversation.
✅ Is the grass always greener?
✅ Remind yourself of your why.
✅ Use metrics that make sense to you, not to others.

There's no way around it, if you're building a business, you're going to make mistakes, and you're going to take wrong turns - you're going to waste money, and you're going to waste time. There's just no way around it. The key is to know how to get past it. In this episode, we both share our experiences of going in what seemed to be the wrong direction, and how we got past it.
✅ Why mistakes should be reframed and seen as learning experiences.
✅ How to justify big losses and keep moving forward.
✅ Why you shouldn't always try to get money and time back using the same strategies that made you lose them in the first place *sometimes you just need to stop digging in the same direction*.
