Sleep is one of the most powerful recovery tools we have — yet it’s often the most overlooked. With over one-third of adults reporting insufficient sleep each night (CDC, 2022), the impact on performance, motivation, and overall health is profound. As a fitness or wellness professional, you have a unique opportunity to help clients bridge this gap and unlock their full potential. 

In this live webinar, led by Nick Lambe, ACE Certified Health Coach and Clinical Sleep Health Educator, you’ll explore how to translate complex sleep science into simple, actionable steps your clients can follow. Drawing from over a decade of experience coaching athletes and clients through sleep and recovery strategies, Nick shares practical methods for identifying sleep barriers, improving client communication, and integrating effective sleep-focused habits into your existing programs—all while staying within your professional scope. 

Through real-world examples, frameworks, and ready-to-use tools, you’ll discover how to make sleep a seamless part of your coaching practice. From assessing client sleep patterns and building personalized wind-down routines to aligning training with recovery readiness, this session delivers a clear, repeatable system you can use right away to help clients recover better, perform stronger, and stay consistent in their movement goals. 

Upon completion, you will be able to: 

  • Explain the foundational role of sleep in recovery, performance, and long-term health.
  • Identify common client sleep barriers and apply behavior-based solutions to address them.
  • Demonstrate the ability to communicate about sleep confidently and ethically within your professional scope.
  • Integrate simple, evidence-based sleep strategies into coaching programs and routines.
  • Evaluate and utilize sleep optimization techniques to enhance client consistency, accountability, and overall results.
