Before You Start WAKING UP at 5AM Everyd...

ERIKA DE PELLEGRIN
About this episode

You’ve seen the reels. The 5AM Club. Sunrise journaling. Cold plunges.

But when you try to wake up early, it maybe doesn't feel right for you — and you’re left wondering:


👉 “Why isn’t this working for me?”

👉 “Am I just not disciplined enough?”

👉 “Is everyone else wired differently?”


In this episode, we dive into the real truth behind the 5AM hype — and why trying to force yourself into someone else’s routine might be holding you back. If you’ve ever felt like you’re failing at early mornings, this one's for you.


You’re not broken. You just haven’t been told this yet.
