In this inspiring episode of Midwifery for the People, I sit down with Daniel White, Co-Founder of QNTMLY & The CRD Challenge, and Founder & NPO Chair of Sleep Better Live Better.

Nikko Kennedy, long time friend of Indie Birth introduced me to Daniel recently when she suggested I might want to be an ambassador for the CRD challenge (ti is so good, go sign up for free! Link down below). Nikko’s education and support around my own circadian health was pivotal in healing my anxiety and panic “disorder” (not really a disorder, a totally normal and understandable response to the stress/trauma/life changes I was undergoing and unraveling through a major spiritual lesson) earlier this year. To say I’m a circadian health convert is an understatement. I have blackout curtains scotch taped over my bedroom windows and my kids switch to red lights with me at sunset now, lol.

But I digress! In this episode Daniel shares his personal journey from mental health issues, excessive screen time, and poor dietary habits during his teenage years to committing to holistic health and wellness. He discusses the founding of the Sleep Better Live Better Foundation and groundbreaking research on the adverse impacts of technology on today’s youth, including the benefits of blue light blocking glasses. This is an episode for EVERYONE, but of course is exceptional for anyone trying to optimize the health of themselves and their families. Daniel introduces the CRD Challenge, an initiative aimed at improving circadian rhythms, and emphasizes the importance of natural light exposure and community education. We explore what the creation of optimal environments for families might look like. This episode illustrates the profound impact of small lifestyle changes and Daniel’s mission to educate and inspire communities to embrace a healthier, more balanced life.
