Book a Discovery Call ![Devin Burke](https://bvgubcwcnqsamfixzopt.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/blog-images/executives/eb9976a5-f5a7-4c01-8e07-cbab83cbc776.jpg) AS SEEN ON USA TODAY TEDx Yahoo Finance ABC Fox News NBC ## You've tried everything. And you're still awake at 3 AM. You've done the melatonin. The magnesium. The blue-light glasses. The expensive mattress. Maybe Ambien, Trazodone, or Xanax. Maybe a $400 sleep tracker that just makes the anxiety worse. You've read the books. Listened to the podcasts. Maybe even tried CBT-I and quit halfway through because the sleep restriction made you feel worse. And still you lie there at 2 AM, calculating: "If I fall asleep right now, I'll get five hours. Four hours. Three…" You wake up exhausted. The coffee helps for a while. But by midday, you're unraveling patience thin, focus shot, decisions getting sloppy. You're leading a team, running a company, closing deals on three or four hours of broken sleep. And then it starts again the creeping anxiety: "I have to sleep tonight. I have to. But will I?" If you're running a company, leading a team, or operating at the top of your field—and you haven't had real sleep in months or years this is for you. Not another supplement. Not another app. Not another generic protocol. A proven, science-backed path forward: No pills. No sleep restriction torture. No one-size-fits-all advice. Just a proven 8-week method combining 1-on-1 coaching, weekly group support with Devin Burke, and a system that addresses the root cause of insomnia. Clients who commit to the program see a 97% success rate. ## Here's what's actually going on You don't have a willpower problem. You don't have a "bad sleep hygiene" problem. And you're not broken. You have a nervous system that won't power down the same trait that makes you good at your job is making it impossible to sleep. The relentless drive, the constant problem-solving, the always-on mind: it's an asset by day and a liability at night. Most "solutions" attack the wrong target: ### Sleeping pills Sedate you. They don't restore sleep they replace it with chemical unconsciousness. ### Sleep apps Teach you sleep hygiene. Hygiene doesn't solve insomnia for high-performers it just adds another set of rules to obsess over. ### CBT-I Can help, but the sleep-restriction protocol is brutal, the good therapists are hard to fine and often booked out for months, and most executives quit halfway through. ### Tracking devices Turn your sleep into another KPI to dread. The real fix is to address the root cause: a nervous system stuck in "on." That's what the Sound Sleep System does. ## The true cost of your insomnia Most people think of insomnia as a nighttime problem. It's not. It's a 24-hour problem that compounds in five places that matter most to you and the cost gets steeper every day it continues. 1 ### The Cost to Your Decision-Making Your prefrontal cortex the part of your brain responsible for judgment, strategy, and impulse control is the most sensitive region to sleep loss. When you sleep less than six hours: - Risk-taking and impulsivity increase. Sleep-deprived executives consistently make riskier choices in research studies. - Working memory and cognitive flexibility drop. You can't hold as many variables in your head, and you can't pivot when conditions change. - Emotional regulation collapses. You're more reactive, less measured, and quicker to fire off the email you shouldn't have sent. - You don't notice the impairment. Sleep-deprived people consistently rate their own performance higher than it actually is. 2 ### The Financial Cost RAND Corporation's research on insomnia found chronic insomniacs lose an average of 45 to 54 days of workplace productivity per year through absenteeism and presenteeism. RAND estimates the United States loses over $200 billion per year to chronic insomnia. Insomnia sufferers report they would willingly trade 14% of their annual income to fix the problem. If you make $250,000 a year, that's a $35,000 problem you're carrying. If you make $500,000, it's $70,000. This program costs $5,000. Most clients recover the investment in their first month back at full capacity. 3 ### The Cost to Your Marriage and Closest Relationships This one is harder to talk about and it's the cost most clients tell us hurt the most by the time they finally got help. - Couples who sleep less than seven hours have measurably more conflict, more hostile arguments, and worse conflict resolution. - Sleep-deprived spouses show reduced empathy and less ability to read their partner's emotions. - Poor sleep is linked to increased marital aggression sleep deprivation collapses the self-control needed to hold back the sharp cutting word. - The cost isn't a bad week. It's the slow erosion of the relationships that matter most over months, then years and could end up in divorce. 4 ### The Cost to Your Health and Longevity People who sleep less than six hours per night have a 13% higher mortality risk than people sleeping seven to nine hours. Chronic insufficient sleep is independently linked to an increase in: - Cardiovascular disease and stroke - Type 2 diabetes and obesity - Hypertension - Compromised immune function - Anxiety and depression - Dementia and Alzheimer's risk 5 ### The Cost to Your Joy, Presence, and Energy This is the one that doesn't show up in any spreadsheet and it's the one most clients eventually realize was the real reason they finally said enough. - Joy gets suppressed The things that used to light you up start to feel like obligations to just get through. - You're physically present but emotionally absent. - Your spark fades. The drive, creativity, and energy that built your career start to dull. You feel empty inside. - You stop saying yes to vacations, new projects, social plans, intimacy with your spouse. ### Add it up Pick any one of the five. Decision-making. Money. Marriage. Health. Joy. If you're losing ground in even one of those five domains right now, the cost over the next year is going to be many multiples of what this program costs. Most clients are losing ground in all five. Book a Discovery Call ## You don't have to live like this A life beyond insomnia is possible and most of our clients see results in as little as 2 weeks no matter how extreme or long they've been struggling. - Wake up rested, not wrecked - Stop doing math on your remaining hours of sleep - Make decisions with a clear head again - Get off Ambien, Trazodone, or whatever else you've been relying on - Stop dreading bedtime - Trust your body to sleep naturally the way it was designed to ![Devin Burke](https://bvgubcwcnqsamfixzopt.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/blog-images/executives/f04472ef-dc96-4071-88a2-776bea6d8fc1.jpg) ## Hi, I'm Devin Burke I'm the founder of Sleep Science Academy and the creator of Dynamic Sleep Recalibrating (DSR) — the proprietary method behind the Sound Sleep System. For the past two decades, I've immersed myself in sleep science, behavioral psychology, mindfulness, ACT, and CBT-I. I hold multiple sleep certifications. I'm a TEDx speaker. I wrote The Sleep Advantage (bestseller). USA Today named me "One of the Top Coaches of 2023," and I've been recognized as "One of the Top 25 Health Coaches in America" out of more than 100,000+ coaches. But what matters most is this: I've personally coached over 1,500+ adults have used this system to eliminate insomnia and restore natural sleep, including hundreds of executives, founders, attorneys, surgeons, doctors, accountants, and even Grammy award-winning artists, professional athletes, and billionaires whose minds just wouldn't shut off. The Sound Sleep System has a 97% success rate for clients who complete the program no matter how long they've struggled or how extreme their sleeplessness. Rewrite your sleep story Book a Discovery Call ## Who this is for ### Business Owners You're running a company, and your sleep is running you. ### Executives & Leaders You make high-stakes calls all day on three or four hours of broken sleep. ### Entrepreneurs You've built something real. The cost has been your nights. ### Top Professionals Attorneys, physicians, surgeons, financial advisors, consultants and high-performers. ### Why high performers specifically? The same drive that built your career is the thing keeping you awake at night. Generic sleep advice was built for the general population. The Sound Sleep System was built for people who need sleep the most because the stakes are high and every decision matters. Here's what I've learned coaching thousands of high performers, lost sleep shows up everywhere it counts. The boardroom. The bedroom. The field. The stage. ## Introducing The Sound Sleep System An 8-week comprehensive insomnia recovery program designed to eliminate insomnia and restore your natural ability to sleep for life. This is not a course. A course teaches. A program transforms. The Sound Sleep System combines on-demand video curriculum, personal 1-on-1 coaching, weekly group calls with Devin, sleep tracking, expert email support, and a community of high-performers walking the same path. It's the difference between reading a book about sleep and finally getting yours back. ## The 4 phases of recovery Phase 1 Weeks 1-2 ### Foundations of Restoring Natural Sleep You'll get a foundational education on how sleep actually works, why high-performers tend to break it, and what to do when you can't fall (or stay) asleep.

Now I sleep all night, every night. — Lisa " Within days of joining Sleep Science Academy, I saw a big improvement. I now consistently get 6-7 hours of sleep each night and fall asleep within 15 minutes. — Jon " Before joining, I was getting a choppy 2-4 hours with various medications. I even checked into a clinic. Within 10 days of joining, my sleep started to improve. Now I'm sleeping 8-10 hours a night. The program changed my life. — Chris " It only took me a few days to realize where I was getting stuck. Now I'm sleeping through the night. The structure of the program drew me in, and the team helped me get my life back. — Betty " Before working with Sleep Science Academy, I was getting maybe 4-5 hours a night. After two weeks of the program, my sleep began to improve. Now I'm getting a solid 7 hours of deep restorative sleep. — Obie " Now my sleep is amazing. I fall asleep easily and stay asleep for 7-8 hours. I wake up refreshed and ready for the day. It only took two weeks before I started seeing improvement. — Melissa Jon Shantel Yuliya Chris Austin Suzanne ## Privacy & discretion for executives Your name. Your title. Your company.

All members sign of this program sign a confidentiality agreement. ## Business expense considerations As an executive or business owner, you may be able to expense the Sound Sleep System as professional development. We're not accountants — please verify with your CPA — but here's what's typical: ### Common Categorizations Many clients categorize the program as executive coaching, leadership development, performance consulting, or professional advisory. ## How this compares to your other options ### Doing Nothing 45-54 days of personal productivity loss per year per chronic insomniac (RAND). Plus the cost to your marriage, health, longevity, peace of mind and the months and years you can't get back. ### Sleeping Pills $300-$1,200/year. Plus the long-term cost: dependency, rebound insomnia when you try to stop, links to cognitive decline, and the daily reminder that you can't sleep without a chemical assist. Sleeping pills are band-aids at best and health destorying at worse. ### Sleep Clinic Studies (Polysomnography) $1,000-$10,000 for an in-lab study, plus follow-up appointments and any prescribed equipment. Sleep studies are excellent for diagnosing apnea but if your problem is insomnia driven by a hyperactive nervous system, a sleep study won't fix it and is often a waste of time and money. ### CBT-I Through a Specialist $1,500-$3,000 for the full protocol if you can find an experienced provider and most are booked out for months. Plus the sleep restriction protocol that causes most executives to quit halfway through. ### The Sound Sleep System $5,000. 8 weeks. 8 weekly 1-on-1 coaching sessions, 8 weekly group calls with Devin Burke, sleep tracking, expert email support, and a community of high-performers walking the same path. 97% success rate. 100% money-back guarantee. Lifelong natural sleep. The question isn't whether you can afford to fix this. It's whether you can afford another month or year of not fixing it. ## Investment Phase 1: Foundations of Restoring Natural Sleep (Weeks 1-2) $500 Phase 2: Rewiring Your Mind for Sleep (Weeks 2-4) $500 Phase 3: Restoring Your Body's Natural Sleep Rhythm (Weeks 4-6) $500 Phase 4: Increasing Sleep Depth & Quality (Weeks 6-8) $500 4 Live 1-on-1 Sleep Coaching Sessions $1,500 8 Live Weekly Group Coaching Sessions with Devin Burke $2,000 Virtual Sleep Tracking $500 Direct Email Support $250 100% Money-Back Guarantee Priceless Bonus #1: 4 Additional 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions $1,500 Bonus #2: Lifetime Program Access $2,000 Bonus #3: Complete Program Workbook $100 Bonus #4: How to Sleep When Traveling $75 Bonus #5: Breathing Techniques with Dr. Patel $75 Bonus #6: Two 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions with Devin Burke $1500 Total Value $10,000+ Regular Price $8,000 Today's Price $5,000 Or get started with a payment plan as low as $300/month Book a Discovery Call ## 100% Money-Back Guarantee We're confident in our science-backed approach.
