Systems for Mornings, Discipline and Sleep
Episode
24
Kim Parnell




Overview
In this episode I chat with Kim Parnell about her systems to kick start her mornings, practice discipline and improve sleep so that she can start and end each day with success.
On any given day, Kim wears multiple hats, from being the Founder of TrueBase (formerly known as Blank), to creating forward-thinking and contrarian content. She is also an avid learner, amateur biohacker, and obsessed with science, philosophy and psychology.
Her curiosity coupled with accountability and consistency has allowed her to discover new passions (and business opportunities) throughout her life.
This episode is perfect for anyone who is naturally curious and needs systems to stay productive and focused.
