This episode dives into the unsexy but unbeatable truth: you can’t out-supplement chaotic sleep habits. Mikki and Jess unpack the “order of operations” for better nights—dim, warm-toned lighting below eye line, parking the phone 45 minutes before bed, and building a repeatable wind-down ritual. They compare magnesium forms (why glycinate usually wins for sleep, and why oxide/hydroxide are more for “movement” than melatonin vibes), and touch on NSDR, smart napping (20–60 minutes, not after 4 p.m.), and how daytime choices—omega-3s, vitamin D, creatine, simple routines—prime the system for deeper recovery. Practical, calm, evidence-aware guidance you can put to work tonight, whether you’re tapering for an ultra or just trying to show up better tomorrow. 
Highlights
  • You can’t supplement your way out of poor sleep habits—routines rule.
  • Set the light environment: warm, low lamps; increase screen distance at night.
  • Magnesium 101: glycinate for sleep; avoid oxide/hydroxide for absorption.
  • NSDR and short, earlier naps to top up recovery.
  • Daytime habits support night-time sleep.
