Sleep Is the Springboard for Living a Passionate, Self-Expressed Life with Mollie Eastman, creator of Sleep Is A Skill

Welcome back to the Compromised to Alchemized podcast. Thank you for being here! In this episode, I sit down with sleep expert and serial entrepreneur Mollie Eastman. Before becoming a leading voice in circadian health, Molly was a high-octane entrepreneur in the heart of NYC, navigating corporate discontent, studying nonverbal communication, and maintaining an incredible 2,500-day gratitude streak.Molly reveals a powerful new layer to her mission: the concept of "Being Your Word" as a vehicle for freedom. They discuss how sleep isn't just a biological necessity, but the essential springboard for living a self-expressed and passionate life.Mollie Eastman is the creator of Sleep Is A Skill and the host of The Sleep Is A Skill Podcast. Sleep Is A Skill is a company that optimizes people’s sleep through a unique blend of technology, accountability, and behavioral change. After navigating insomnia while traveling internationally, she created what she couldn’t find - a place to go to learn the skill set of sleep. With a background in behavioral change from The Nonverbal Group, she became fascinated with chronobiology and its practical application to sleep and our overall experience of life. Knowing the difference between a life with sleep and without, she’s now dedicated her life to sharing the forgotten skill set of sleep. In the spirit of that goal, she has created the #2 sleep podcast, where she has interviewed over 200 sleep experts, written a popular weekly sleep newsletter for over six years, partnered with luxury hotels & lifestyle brands, coached the world’s top poker players, and has appeared on over 175 podcasts.Timestamps:00:00 | Introduction07:32 | Mollie reflects on her entrepreneurial journey14:00 | The importance of accountability when tackling a new endeavor18:59 | Molly shares the prologue to her success that led her from chronic insomnia to a life-changing realization that would eventually help thousands reclaim their sleep24:33 | Mollie reflects on what her past self would say is her personal legend32:22 | Referencing Wayne Dyer, Molly discusses what happens when life "squeezes" you.
