We know sleep evades the "average" Touretter, but answer this, whoever you are: How do you typically start your day? Do you protest with the ol' "I just wanna keep sleeeeeping" or "I can't do this today"? Or do you do what Ellis Pascal does -- waking up exclaiming and jolting into the day -- ? Ellis is one of the most driven and energetic people we've heard from on this show, and his advice for a good life, balanced, productive life is pretty solid. He's used his own methods to tame his tics and create an environment for himself where he can help other people -- his ultimate goal. Really interesting guest here.
