Waking up groggy, overheating at night, or tossing and turning for hours may not be your fault - your body temperature could be sabotaging your sleep.
Most people know sleep matters, but endless tweaks to routines or supplements rarely tackle the real reason restful nights feel so elusive. You track the data and try every gadget, but if the environment isn’t working with your body’s natural rhythms, progress stalls.
This episode cuts through generic advice and explores how mastering temperature in your bedroom can radically improve your sleep quality, energy, and recovery. Hear firsthand how a simple shift can spark major change, all from someone who’s cracked the code through hard-won experience.
Harry is the Founder/CEO of Orion. Orion is a longevity company whose mission is to transform longevity through sleep. Previously, Harry was Founder/CEO of Fanfix. Harry founded Fanfix at the age of 20 and the company was acquired by SuperOrdinary in just 10 months, scaling to over 15 million users and $120 million in revenue. Upon the acquisition, Harry also became the Chief Digital Officer of SuperOrdinary, scaling it to $350 million revenue and 650 employees, of which he was the youngest. Fanfix disrupted the social media landscape, allowing creators to make millions of dollars directly from their fans without having to rely on brand deals or agents. Harry now wants to bring that same disruption to the longevity industry, democratizing good sleep. Harry has been recognized in Forbes 30 under 30 and The Times’ “25 Most Inspiring People in the UK Under 30.”
