The difference really comes down to the level of expertise and experience I offer, especially when it comes to helping high-performers with demanding lifestyles.  The simple truth is that there are no other Sleep Coaches out there with PhDs, board certifications, and real-world experience working with elite populations (Navy SEALs, Executives, Professional Sports Teams). 

What this means for you is that you are going to get the most effective, scientifically supported, and customized coaching program available. 

I’m in no way trying to discredit other coaching services.  Some are great and in reality, probably just fine for many people.  

But if you're a busy professional looking for a program that's effective, personalized, and gets results quickly, Peak Sleep might be right for you. Helping people like you isn't just part of what I do – it's my entire focus. And I've gotten pretty good at it over the years.

Absolutely. In fact, many of my clients don't have insomnia. They're high achievers like you who are simply looking to optimize their sleep and take their performance to the next level. 

The reality is that sleep isn't binary. It's not just "good" or "bad". At Peak Sleep, we use a Sleep Zone system. You’ve likely already taken the Sleep Zone Quiz.  If not, you can do so here.

Zone 1 - Maintenance: People in Zone 1 are already getting the most out of their sleep. If you're here, keep doing what you're doing!

Zone 2 - Optimize: This is where a lot of my clients fall. No major sleep issues, but not reaping all the benefits of truly great sleep either. 

Zone 3 - Total Transformation: Those in Zone 3 are struggling with their sleep and need more intensive support. Helping those in Zone 3 is one of my specialties.

If you're asking this question, my guess is you're probably in Zone 2. You're doing okay, but there's room for improvement. And let me tell you, the gains you can make in that zone are game-changing.

In our Zone 2 program, we'll dive deep into:

• Your biological sleep need
• Your chronotype (are you a night owl or an early bird or something in between?)
• Sleep timing
• Relaxation strategies
• Daily habits
• Counter-productive thoughts about sleep
• Your bedtime routine
• Your sleep environment 

It's about fine-tuning your approach to take your sleep from average to exceptional. 

Remember, at Peak Sleep, you're not just getting generic advice. You're getting personalized strategies based on cutting-edge sleep science, tailored specifically for high performers like you.

So no, you don't need insomnia to benefit from our services. You just need the desire and commitment to sleep better and perform at your absolute best.

This is a very common question and I get it.  You feel like things are going well and you may not want to mess with a good thing.  Consider this - If you’re succeeding on suboptimal sleep, just imagine what you could be achieving when you’re actually firing on all cylinders.

I often describe sleep as the foundation of greatness.  It's not just about feeling less tired – it's about unlocking your full potential.

Here's just a few things quality sleep can do for you:

• Enhance your ability to focus & concentrate
• Make you more resilient to stress & burnout
• Strengthen your immune system, making you less likely to get sick
• Boost your creativity & problem-solving ability
• Increase the accuracy & speed of your decision making
• Help you lose weight
• Increase natural growth hormone release
• Improve your mood, emotional intelligence, & leadership
• Speed up your reaction times
• Increase your energy levels and physical performance

Now, if you're not interested in improving these areas, then honestly, you probably shouldn't hire me. The program I offer works well, but it does require commitment on your end and a genuine desire to improve your sleep.

I work hard for my clients, and I want that effort to result in positive outcomes. I'm not in this business to fail my clients. So if you truly don't think your life would improve with better sleep, please save your money.

But if you're intrigued by the idea of taking your performance to the next level, let's talk. 

I’m so glad you asked! Let me be crystal clear about this - when you work with Peak Sleep, you work with me directly. There's no bait and switch, no passing you off to a junior coach.

Here's why:

1. I'm intentionally keeping Peak Sleep small because I'm passionate about maintaining the highest quality of service and I suppose I’m a bit of a control freak. But I believe my clients deserve my full expertise and attention, especially if I’m the face of the company. 

2. My goal isn't to see as many clients as possible. It's to provide exceptional results for the few I work with. Quality over quantity, always. 

3. I've had opportunities to scale the company, bring in other coaches, and see more clients. But Peak Sleep is my baby and I’m pretty protective of it. I'm not willing to compromise on the level of expertise and personalized attention each client receives just to increase throughput. 

5. Yes, this approach means my prices are higher than some other services. But remember, you're not just paying for a sleep coach. You're getting direct access to a true professional with a Ph.D., board certifications, and years of experience working with elite performers like Navy SEALs. 
6. When we work together, you get my undivided attention and the full benefit of my expertise. No dilution, no compromises, no handing you off to another coach.

In reality, this exclusive approach isn't for everyone. If you're looking for a quick, cheap 'sleep hack', my program probably isn't right for you. But if you're serious about optimizing your sleep and you value working directly with a top expert in the field, then Peak Sleep might be exactly what you're looking for.

Remember, investing in your sleep is an investment in every other aspect of your life. Given its importance, why settle for anything less than the best coaching available?

I appreciate your skepticism. If you've been struggling with sleep for a while, it's natural to feel discouraged after trying multiple solutions without success. Let me explain why Peak Sleep might be different for you.

First off, I'm not here to sell you a quick-fix or a one-size-fits-all solution. Those rarely work, and I suspect that's what you've experienced so far.

What sets Peak Sleep apart is our personalized, science-based approach. I bring a unique combination of expertise to the table: 

• A Ph.D. in Psychology
• Board certification in Behavioral Sleep Medicine
• Years of experience as the primary sleep specialist for Navy SEALs
• Extensive work with high-performing professionals and athletes 

This background allows me to dig deeper than surface-level sleep tips. We'll do a comprehensive assessment of your sleep patterns, lifestyle, and unique challenges. Then, we'll craft a tailored strategy that addresses your specific needs.

Now, I want to be clear - this isn't a miracle cure where you as the client don’t have to do anything. It requires commitment and effort on your part. But if you're willing to put in this work, I'm confident we can make significant improvements to your sleep.

Remember, sleep is complex. What works for one person might not work for another. That's why cookie-cutter solutions often fail. At Peak Sleep, we're not just treating symptoms - we're addressing the root causes of your sleep issues.

I get it, you're busy. You've got a packed schedule, high-pressure responsibilities, and probably not a lot of wiggle room. That's exactly why I've designed my program to be flexible and efficient.

Here's how we make it work: 

1. Flexible scheduling: Our coaching sessions are conducted via Zoom, so you can fit them in wherever you are – your office, your home, or even while traveling. 

2. Realistic strategies: I'm not going to ask you to completely overhaul your life. We'll work together to find sleep optimization strategies that fit into your existing routine whenever possible. 

3. Efficient sessions: Our coaching calls are focused and productive. We make the most of our time together so you can get back to your day.

4. Personalized approach: Your sleep plan will be tailored to your specific needs, schedule, and goals. There's no one-size-fits-all approach here. 

5. Gradual implementation: We'll introduce changes step by step, allowing you to adapt without disrupting your entire routine. 

6. Technology integration: If you're already using sleep tracking devices or apps, we can incorporate that data into our strategy. 

7. Email support: Between sessions, you can reach out via email if you have quick questions or concerns.

Remember, the goal isn't to add more to your plate – it's to optimize your sleep so you can handle your busy lifestyle more effectively. Many of my clients find that as their sleep improves, they actually become more efficient and productive, freeing up time in their schedule.

So don't worry about fitting higher quality sleep into your busy life. Let's work on using sleep to make your busy life easier to manage.

This is one of the best things about the program.  It works fast! 

Unfortunately, many people struggling with sleep suffer alone, often for years. It's not unusual for someone with insomnia to wait 10 years before seeking help. That's just tragic, especially when you consider how quickly things can turn around. 

With the Peak Sleep coaching program, most people see significant improvements in their sleep within a few weeks. And yes, that's regardless of how long they've been struggling. I've had clients who thought their sleep was beyond repair sleeping soundly in less than a month.

We've got two coaching programs at Peak Sleep - one for Zone 2 clients and another for Zone 3. Not sure which zone you're in? Take our free 3-minute quiz here.

Most clients in the Zone 2 program achieve their goals in 5-6 sessions, while those in the Zone 3 program usually require 6-8.  While these are the typical number of sessions clients need in each program, everyone’s journey is a bit different.  Some people will respond faster and others a bit slower.  I’m able to adapt the program to meet your needs.  If you need extra sessions beyond the standard program, we can make that happen for a reasonable fee. My goal is to get you sleeping well, however long that takes.

As someone who's worked with high-achieving professionals for years, I've heard this concern countless times. And let me tell you, there's never going to be a "perfect" time to prioritize your sleep. Life is always going to be busy, especially for driven individuals like yourself.

The thing is that many of my most successful clients are often the busiest. We're talking entrepreneurs, NFL coaches, and even Navy SEALs - people with demanding careers and lifestyles. What made them successful?  They realized that optimizing their sleep wasn't just another task to get done - it was the key to managing everything else on their to-do list more effectively.

At Peak Sleep, the goal is not to add something additional to your plate, but to make everything else easier and more efficient.  We'll work together to create a sleep optimization plan that fits into your busy life, not the other way around.  One of my specialties is helping you realign your schedule and various priorities to more easily accommodate an enhanced sleep schedule

The honest truth is that if you’re waiting for your life to slow down before acting, you’ll likely be waiting forever.  Since we can’t go back in time and start a week, month, or year ago, the next best time is now.  Each day we let slip by, is a missed opportunity to enjoy all of the amazing benefits good sleep has to offer. 

So, are you ready? A happier, healthier, better-performing version of you is waiting. Don't make the mistake I did and wait too long to make this change. Your future self will definitely thank you.

Improving your sleep does require some commitment. But I've designed the program to be as time-efficient as possible for busy professionals like you.

Here's what you can expect: 

1. Initial Assessment: Our very first session will be a more in-depth session where we thoroughly explore your current sleep, specific challenges, lifestyle, and goals. 

2. Regular Coaching Sessions: These are typically 50-minute Zoom calls, scheduled every 1-4 weeks depending on your needs and availability. 

3. 'Homework': Between sessions, you'll have some tasks to complete. This might include tracking your sleep, practicing relaxation techniques, or making adjustments to your sleep environment. I also offer my clients exclusive training videos to watch before sessions. The videos are informative, but not long. Watching them means that we can be more efficient and focused when we meet for our regular coaching sessions. 

4. Program Length: For Zone 2 clients, we typically work together for 6 sessions. For Zone 3 clients, it's usually 8 sessions. But remember, everyone's journey is unique, and we can adjust as needed. 

If that sounds like a lot of time, consider this; the time you invest in improving your sleep pays dividends in increased productivity and performance. Many of my clients find they actually save time in the long run because they're more efficient when they're well-rested. 

Plus, consider how much time you're currently losing to poor sleep? Investing a few hours now could save you countless hours of lost productivity in the future.

Short answer - No, I don't. 

Here's why - Peak Sleep offers coaching services, not medical treatment. I know this might seem a bit confusing at first, especially given my background as a medical provider who's treated various sleep disorders. But here's the key difference - at Peak Sleep, I'm not diagnosing or treating. I'm coaching. 

Now, you might be wondering, "What's the big deal? Isn't it all about improving sleep?" Well, yes and no. 

The coaching approach we use at Peak Sleep is non-clinical, which actually appeals to many of my clients. They're not looking for a medical diagnosis or treatment - they're high achievers wanting to optimize their sleep and performance. 

That said, I always encourage my clients, especially those really struggling with sleep, to touch base with their medical providers when we start working together. While many sleep challenges can be overcome with the cognitive and behavioral strategies we use, sometimes there's an underlying medical issue that needs addressing.

For example, I once had a client who came to me for sleep coaching. During our work together, there were some clear indications that they may have sleep apnea, a medical disorder. I recommended he speak to his physician about having a sleep study performed.  He did, and sure enough, that was one of the underlying issues. We paused our coaching until he got his apnea under control, then resumed to fine-tune his sleep even more. 

So, while I don't take insurance, I believe the investment in sleep coaching can pay off enormously in terms of your overall health, productivity, and quality of life. And if we discover that you might benefit from medical treatment along the way, I'll be the first to tell you.

I'm incredibly confident in the Peak Sleep method because I've seen it work time and time again with high-performers just like you. But I also understand that you're looking for assurance before making an investment. 

Here's what I can guarantee: 

1. Personalized Attention: You'll get my full expertise and focus, tailored specifically to your needs. 

2. Science-Backed Strategies: Everything we do is grounded in sleep science and proven to be effective for most people. 

3. Transparency: I'll be upfront about what's working, what isn't, and what we need to adjust. 

4. Measurable Metrics: We'll track specific sleep and performance indicators so you can see your progress in black and white. 

5. Ongoing Support: I'm committed to your success and will be there to guide you every step of the way. 

While I can't guarantee specific outcomes (anyone who does is flat out lying to you), I can guarantee my commitment to your success. If you're not seeing the results we're aiming for, we'll reassess, adjust our approach, and double down on our efforts. 

I also do not offer refunds, other than in very rare instances where someone purchased the program but isn't able to start it.  My time, just like yours, is very valuable and I will be committing a lot of time and effort toward helping you achieve your goals.  Remember, sleep optimization is a process, and everyone's journey is unique. But if you're committed to the process, I'm confident you'll see meaningful improvements.  And we're not just talking about feeling less tired. We're talking real, tangible improvements in your sleep, performance, and overall quality of life.
