Eight Sleep Pod Pro Mattress Cover
When I moved in with my boyfriend Hamed a year ago, I was delighted by the fact that he came with a king size Tempur-Pedic® mattress. SCORE!
But… our mattress slept HOT. I’m talking, all year long, even when it’s 15 degrees outside and there’s snow on the ground.. and even though we use these cooling bamboo sheets and this super breathable lightweight quilt, instead of a down comforter.. our bed was just too damn hot. The only solution was to crank the AC all night long. Not ideal.
Then one night at dinner, his friend told us about his newest obsession: Eight Sleep. We are now totally in love with this brand too.

Eight Sleep has a few products, but since we didn’t want to ditch our Tempur-Pedic® mattress, we opted for the Pod Pro Cover. (Eight Sleep also sells another product that is an entire mattress, which I think is worth checking out if you aren’t happy with your current one.)
So what is it exactly? The Pod Pro Cover is a sleek, super thin mattress cover and health tracking device. The main feature is that it allows you to precisely control the temperature of the bed — and let me tell you it works WELL and FAST.
If you’re curious how it works, there is a super thin layer of water inside the cover, and the water heats up or cools down to rapidly change the temperature of the bed. Each side of the bed is separate, so I control my side and Ham controls his. It’s honestly amazing what a difference this makes in terms of getting good quality sleep.. which is SO important for so many things, from your overall health to your day to day mental clarity and performance, to preventing premature aging and disease.
And let’s be honest.. some nights I want the bed to be warm and cozy, other nights if I’ve had a lot of red wine, I want the bed to be super cold. You control the Pod temperature from an app on your phone, and the change happens within a matter of a minute or two. It still trips me out every time I adjust it and feel the results almost IMMEDIATELY. Like, what more can you ask for, really?
It gets better though! The Pod Pro Cover also tracks your vitals while you’re sleeping.. including respiratory rate, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep cycles, and how many times you roll over.. then it gives you insight and a “sleep score” in the morning.
You get the same benefits as wearing a smart watch to bed, except you don’t have to sleep with something uncomfortable on your wrist. Over time the Pod learns about you and then sends you notifications, so you can make tweaks to optimize your sleep hygiene.
If you don’t want to fork over $1700+ up front, they have interest-free payment plans.

Are you sick to death of...
- Feeling like a hamster in a wheel, chasing the latest social media trends?
- Trying (unsuccessfully) to "beat the algorithm" so your social media posts get seen?
- Posting on social media regularly, but not seeing much engagement, or any real increase in profits?
- Knowing you have amazing services and/or products to offer, but struggling to be seen online and getting crickets when you do reach out?
Girl, we need to talk.
Chances are, there's a lot you're doing wrong. I know because I was stuck there for a long time, too. But don't worry, I'm here to help you!
Psst.. are you sick and tired of figuring out what to cook or order for dinner every night?
I was so over it. I tried Blue Apron and Hello Fresh, and I loved the convenience of the meal kits... but they were so expensive, I just couldn’t justify it. Then I found Dinnerly.

Dinnerly has allowed me to take the guess-work out of dinner completely, and quit grocery shopping — which felt like a huge waste of my precious time. But what really sold me on this particular brand is the price. I still can’t believe that Dinnerly meals are only $4.99 per person per meal, and they are literally the exact same thing as Blue Apron and Hello Fresh. (I’m talking the same exact chicken with the same packaging from the same vendor.)
I’ve been using the Dinnerly kits to make dinner for myself and Ham 3 nights a week for the last year, since we started living together. So I can vouch for them that the quality is consistent. In addition to being super affordable, they have so much variety and the meals are incredibly tasty. They have options for vegetarians, pescatarians, as well as low-calorie and low-carb. The meals are pretty healthy and balanced too — you know we eat clean and are a very health conscious couple. Plus you can make them a bit healthier depending on what type of oil you cook with, how much butter or ghee you use, and how much salt you use.
You know I don’t recommend any brands or products that I don’t absolutely love, and I recommend Dinnerly to all my friends.
