Start The New Year Off With Better Sleep Habits – 028
On this episode 28, Jenny and I jump into 2019 with a new challenge that is all about getting more and better sleep! Most of us are not prioritizing this important habit and it’s time to take a closer look at it and see how we can change our habits to get more rest.

Key Quotes:
“Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement. The same way that money multiplies through compound interest, the effects of your habits multiply as you repeat them. They seem to make little difference on any given day and yet the impact they deliver over the months and years can be enormous. It is only when looking back two, or five or perhaps ten years later that the value of good habits and the cost of bad ones becomes strikingly apparent.” -James Clear
