What if everything you thought you knew about sleep was wrong?

In this episode of Thriving Minds, I sit down with Dr. Guy Leschziner, world-renowned neurologist and leading sleep expert, to uncover the science, psychology, and habits behind truly restorative sleep.

Whether you’re 25, 35, or 55, this conversation will change the way you sleep. You’ll learn how to finally wake up refreshed and energised, no matter your lifestyle.

We explore:

🟠 Why you feel tired even after 8 hours of sleep

🟠 The real causes of insomnia and poor sleep quality

🟠 What to eat (and not eat) to improve sleep

🟠 How light, anxiety, social media, and overstimulation sabotage your rest

🟠 The definition of real sleep hygiene, and how to master it

🟠 What your brain actually needs to shut down and recover

🟠 The link between sleep, memory, hormones, stress, and mood

This isn’t a conversation about pillow sprays and bedtime routines, it’s a deep dive into the emotional, neurological, and biological drivers of sleep that most people have never heard of.

If you want to sleep better, feel sharper, and finally understand your body’s rhythms, this is your blueprint.

"I was successful on paper. But inside, I felt like I was crumbling."

At 27, Phoebe Cleary Rudd had checked all the boxes, an impressive career in finance, a dream apartment, a busy social life. But when burnout hit, it hit hard. She found herself crying on the kitchen floor, disconnected from her purpose, unsure what she was chasing anymore.

This deeply honest conversation reveals how Phoebe rebuilt her confidence, walked away from a career that looked perfect from the outside, and founded The Sauce, a bold, disruptive media brand that’s redefining the hospitality space.

We talk burnout, entrepreneurship, imposter syndrome, and the hidden emotional costs of building success in your twenties. This isn’t just a business story, it’s a blueprint for anyone trying to reconnect with themselves, their ambition, and a life they actually want to live.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why burnout happens even when “everything looks good on paper”
• How Phoebe pivoted from finance to launching a media company from scratch
• The real cost of perfectionism and people-pleasing
• How to navigate imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and competitive pressure
• The entrepreneurial lessons no one teaches you: from co-founder dynamics to finding your niche
• Why being recognised on Forbes 30 Under 30 didn’t fix the internal struggles
• How to build a business that reflects who you actually are

Whether you’re 25, 35, or 55, this episode will leave you rethinking how you define success, and give you the tools to rebuild your confidence, your clarity, and your next chapter.

Kate Moyle is one of the UK’s leading psychosexual therapists and a respected voice in the field of modern intimacy, desire, and sexual wellbeing.

In this episode of Thriving Minds Kate explains why so many people feel disconnected in their relationships, not due to a lack of love, but because of shame, silence, and the myths we’ve internalized about sex.

She breaks down:

• Why desire fades in long-term relationships, and how to rekindle it
• The truth behind the orgasm gap and performance anxiety
• How childhood, culture, and pornography shape sexual identity
• The role of communication and compatibility in emotional and physical connection
• What healthy sex actually looks like, and why it’s different for everyone

With clinical insight and human warmth, Kate offers an evidence-based roadmap to better sex, deeper intimacy, and more honest relationships.

This is not a conversation about sex as entertainment.

It’s a conversation about sex as connection, and why it remains one of the most misunderstood parts of our lives.
