There is only one thing that all humans, globally, do every day: sleep. Sleep makes up one-third of our day, and therefore one-third of our lives. Dr. Dan Gartenberg, Founder of SleepSpace and a renowned scientist whose TED Talk “The Brain Benefits of Deep Sleep” has garnered over 5 million views, has devoted his life to building technologies that improve sleep.

This episode goes far beyond the typical advice of “get your eight hours.” Dan told us that “you can definitely zap the brain” to improve your sleep, so we discussed a wide variety of ways that you can hack your sleep, including advice on distinct sleep environment choices, the use of sound to optimize deep sleep, and even his patent on dream capture technology. (Yes, the type of technology used in the film Inception!)

Dr. Gartenberg is bringing science fiction to life in his work, bridging the gap between cutting-edge scientific research and marketable consumer technologies. In this episode, we also discussed how he has raised $3.5 million, and how he balances his leadership in research while also leading SleepSpace. Dan provides distinct advice for those in the fields of scientific research who are seeking to reach beyond their labs to build a company.

Dr. Dan is full of unique takes on the state of society and sleep, so you won’t want to miss this episode. If you feel like you’re sleeping worse than ever before right now, you’re probably right, and Dr. Dan will explain why.

You’ll leave the podcast informed on the secret science behind how you can get the best sleep of your life, and we’re confident you’ll never feel the same about sleep after listening to this episode. https://sleepspace.com/
