On this special SLEEP episode of Empowering Leaders, Luke sits down with world-leading sleep and recovery coach Anna West, founder of Sleep2Perform, to explore why good sleep might be the most underrated performance enhancer on the planet.

Drawing on her work with Premier League clubs, Olympic programs and high-pressure corporate environments, Anna explains how a single night of poor sleep can affect learning, reaction time and injury risk, and why she’s less interested in scare tactics and far more interested in helping people understand how much great sleep can change their lives!

She and Luke unpack why a good night’s sleep actually starts the moment you wake up, exactly how daylight, movement, nutrition and stress all shape your sleep hours, and why some of the most talked-about trends… from wearables to mouth taping… need a lot more critical thinking. Anna also shares simple ways to handle jet lag, long-haul travel and late-night schedules, and gets into the nitty gritty of how leaders can build cultures where rest is seen as a competitive advantage, not a sign of weakness.

Anna is full of practical, science-grounded wisdom that will change the way you think about your days and your nights!
