When I read James Nestors best selling book āBreathāā¦the light bulb went off. I was sleeping like crap because I was mouth breathing. My life changing moment was discovering mouth taping.

You see, we had the life. A software business doing 7 figures a year, 2 amazing kids, the house, the cars, the vacationsā¦everything you could want. But I didnāt take care of my health, I lost myself.

I was burnt out, out of shape, I neglected myself, I neglected my wife, and I neglected my kids. I was soon divorced, living in my aunts basement, and sold my business for a job I hated. My life hit rock bottom.

Being an athlete my whole life, my coaches never taught me the dangers of mouth breathing and amazing benefits of nose breathing. My life is no longer being held hostage by poor sleep. I mouth tape every night. I get amazing sleep.

2 years ago we started @HostageTape from nothing. Today we launched with @joerogan podcast. Most companies dream about this knowing it will never happen. My parents taught me you can do anything in life if you work for it. Our work is paying off. Stay tuned. .

For 30 yrs I snored like a chainsaw, I never understood why. 4 yrs ago I solved it and scaled @HostageTape into an 8 figure business. (#thread š§µ). 128 million households in the US, and 71% are getting terrible sleep. I was one of the 71% and I didnāt know why.

@_Scott_C The law of attractionā¦once I became the man, the father, the partner I was meant to be. One day on curbside drop off, my wife came up to the car and we had our first conversation in 2 years. She then invited me into her home and it all started from there.

Sitting in my aunt's basement over 4 years ago, it all started with that one night of good sleep. A life changing series of sleep that has led me here. My life is no longer held hostage by my poor sleep. I mouth tape every night.

Reading James Nestorās best selling book Breath where they plug their nose for 10 days at Stanford Medical Center, develop sleep apnea, snoring and dangerously low levels of oxygen in their bloodā¦and then unplug their nose, mouth tape, and everything went away after a day.

As a result, I was burnt out, out of shape, and neglecting my wife and my kids. It was one of the reasons my marriage fell apart. Turns out my life was being held hostage by my poor sleep.
