The Elite Road Warrior Podcast

Welcome to the ERW podcast, I’m your host, BpB, fellow road warrior, husband of one, father of five, chillin during this Chicago winter, and committed each and every business trip to becoming and remaining an ERW.

I loved two specific aspects or gifts if you will:
Solitude - nobody but me

Silence - any noise came from me

In Elite Road Warrior Group we call this concept: IMPROVE Then INCREASE.

When I’m in my hotel room for the night, I have an evening routine where I do the following:

• Turn the room temperature down (66-68 degrees)
• Turn the room lights down
• Change into comfortable clothes (I’m an UnderArmor/Hurley guy)
• Put on my blue blocker glasses

Two - Dep Sleepwear Hoodie

So, once I turn the corner and get ready for bed, I do the following:

• I brush my teeth
• Wash my face
• Take off my makeup (CALEB - sound effect that would be funny or just use C’mon Man)
• Plug in all my devices to charge
• Put on my Dep Sleepwear hoodie

Three - 10% Happier Meditation App

So, when and how do I incorporate meditation and bedtime? Once I put my Dep Sleepwear on, I have the room dark and I do the following:

• Open the 10% Happier app
• Choose a 5 or 10 minute sleep meditation
• Try to relax and slow my body and mind down
