  • How To Improve Your Sleep and Energy Without Changing Your Habits | Seth Casden
    Mar 1 2026

    In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, you’ll learn how to improve your sleep, recovery, and daily energy without adding more to your routine by tapping into passive infrared textile technology that works in the background. Seth explains how this infrared technology enhances circulation, oxygenation, and thermal regulation just through the clothes and bedding you already use.


    We break down the science in plain language — including what infrared does at a cellular level and why increasing circulation matters for performance. Seth also shares how this technology is already embedded in products from major brands such as Under Armour’s UA RUSH performance apparel and Decathlon infrared-enhanced training gear.


    Finally, we get personal with Seth’s own habits, his approach to wellbeing and coherence, and the advice he’d give for living with purpose and resilience.


    If you’re looking for a simple one percent upgrade to your energy, recovery, and sleep, this episode may change how you think about performance.

  • Tom Le Noble on High Performance When Life Gets Hard
    Feb 22 2026

    In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Tom, the number one best selling author of My Life in Business Suits, Hospital Gowns and High Heels, to unpack what it really looks like to live fully when life gets uncertain.


    Tom shares the private chapters behind his public success, including building a senior corporate career while quietly living with metastatic cancer. We talk about resilience as a muscle, “terrible gifts”, and why belief and personal agency can change everything when the odds are against you.


    If you’ve been pushing through pressure, change, or uncertainty, this episode will help you come back to what you can control, and move forward with clarity and possibility.

  • Breaking Binge Eating Habits with Nicole Gaviria
    Feb 15 2026

    In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Nic from Binge Free Bestie to unpack why binge eating is so common in high performers, and why it so often stays hidden behind success.


    Nic shares her own recovery story, the binge restrict cycle, and how shame and perfectionism keep people stuck. We also explore why binge eating has no “look”, why quick fix tools do not work long term without mindset and nervous system work, and how to build real food freedom.


    If you’ve ever felt disciplined everywhere else but powerless around food, this episode will give you simple, practical tools you can use immediately.
