Winners don't wait. Winners find a way.

You don't rise to your potential—you recover to it. Sleep isn't a luxury. It's a skill.

On this episode of WINNERS FIND A WAY, Trent M. Clark sits down with Mollie Eastman, founder of Sleep Is a Skill and host of one of the top sleep podcasts in the world, to tackle one of the most overlooked performance levers in leadership, entrepreneurship, and elite athletics: sleep and recovery.

From HRV and wearables to circadian rhythm, wake-ups at 3am, sleep anxiety, and data overload, this is a masterclass in how top performers actually win—by mastering the downshift.

This conversation isn't theory. It's practical, real-world, and immediately actionable.

Mollie Eastman is a leading voice in sleep optimization, founder of SleepIsASkill.com, and creator of the Sleep Obsessions newsletter. She works with entrepreneurs, Special Forces operators, high-stakes performers, and professional athletes to transform sleep from a liability into a competitive advantage.

Her work bridges cutting-edge science with practical implementation—without fragility, gimmicks, or excuses.

• Why sleep is a trainable skill, not a genetic sentence
• The difference between stress vs. distress in performance
• HRV, wearables, and when data helps—or hurts
• The real reasons people wake up at 3–4am
• Circadian rhythm > night routines alone
• Why elite performers must master day mode vs. night mode
• How leaders unknowingly model poor recovery for their teams

Success doesn't come from flashy moments. It comes from showing up—every day—long after most people quit.

In this episode, Trent sits down with Tyler Morris—entrepreneur, investor, and what Trent calls a professional grinder.

Tyler didn't come from privilege or shortcuts. He grew up in a small town, learned early how to work without recognition, and built his career by outworking, outlasting, and out-learning the competition. After a successful eight-figure exit, Tyler didn't slow down—because grinding isn't a phase, it's who he is.

Together, Trent and Tyler unpack:

• Why being underestimated can be a competitive advantage
• The difference between grinding and burning out
• Why alignment beats talent every time
• How delegation separates small business owners from real operators
• Why adding value to others is often the fastest way out of a personal or professional low point

This is a masterclass in discipline, humility, and long-term thinking.

• Winners don't wait for perfect conditions—they prepare
• Confidence comes from preparation, not ego
• Teams win championships, not individuals
• The grind never ends—you just get better at it
• When you're down, go help someone else

• M2 Digital Marketing Group – Website strategy & growth-focused digital marketing
• Concept: Minders, Finders, and Grinders (knowing your lane)
• Athletic mindset applied to entrepreneurship
