Emma Stevens is an adoptee from the Baby Scoop Era and author of the book, The Gathering Place. You can find her book on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3zP4JwP Emma's story is heartbreaking and healing at the same time as we discover the ends to which she had to endeavor in order to find her real identity. It's a familiar story of how adoptees often venture off on a quest alone to find truth only to realize it's a very rocky road of unexpected setbacks, rejection and disappointment. Despite the obstacles Emma has been able to find peace and talks through her trauma with me in an effort to help those who may still on the journey. Special thanks to our sponsor! This episode is brought to you by Eight Sleep.?Good sleep is the ultimate game changer and the Eight Sleep Pod is the ultimate sleep machine. For me, the three pillars of health are: Sleep. Nutrition. Exercise. Sleep, especially on a thermo-regulated bed at the right temperature customized for me, has been the key to feeling my best and performing at a high level. The Eight Sleep Pro Pod is a game-changer! If you sleep with someone every night like I do, you would normally have to compromise with your partner on temperature... But not with Eight Sleep. The Pod is the only sleep technology that dynamically cools and heats each side of the bed, to maintain the optimal sleeping temperature for what your body needs. With the pod, you can start sleeping as cool as 55°F or as hot as 110°F. You control everything with an app on your phone and it's really easy. The result: Clinical data shows that Eight Sleep users experience up to 19% increase in recovery, up to 32% improvement in sleep quality, and up to 34% more deep sleep. The new Pod 3 enables more accurate sleep and health tracking with double the amount of sensors, delivering you the best sleep experience on Earth. The Pod is not magic, but it feels like it.
