Human performance scientist Dr. James Hewitt joins Dr. Sophie Bostock to dig into how the principles of regenerative performance can transform the way we recover, and sleep. Together they explore how training harder, working smarter, and recovering better all intersect, and why quality sleep is central to every high-performer’s toolkit.
James started his journey as a full-time racing cyclist, holds a PhD in Performance Science and has spent over two decades combining research, elite sport and business to understand how people can achieve more without burning out. He’s worked across sectors, from corporations to athletic teams, and spoken to audiences around the world on sustainable performance and wellbeing.
In this episode, he’ll walk you through practical, science-backed strategies to build recovery habits that enhance sleep, not sabotage it.
