n this episode of the New Dad Order podcast, co-host Jerrard shares his firsthand experience using Thirdzy, a natural sleep supplement, and how it compares to his previous go-to: Beam, a CBD-based sleep aid. As a dad who juggles early mornings and long commutes, Jerrard gives a detailed, no-hype breakdown of how Thirdzy affected his sleep quality, referencing data from his WHOOP sleep tracker. He explains how Thirdzy helped him reach deep sleep faster, without the grogginess he sometimes felt after using Beam.Jerrard talks about how Beam worked well for a time, especially when paired with warm milk, but eventually he wanted something more well-rounded—without melatonin or CBD. That led to his switch to Thirdzy, which he says gives him a “night and day” difference in how rested he feels. The conversation digs into ingredients, routines (including adding electrolytes for overnight hydration), and real-world results from using both products.Later, the dads pivot to a deeper discussion around parenting psychology—specifically the emotional impact of things parents say without thinking. They explore phrases like “What’s wrong with you?” and “I wish you were more like your sister” and how these comments, even if unintentional, can hurt a child’s sense of identity or self-worth. The guys reflect on their own upbringings, cultural norms, and how they’re learning to parent more consciously.The episode blends dad life, health optimization, and emotional intelligence, making it a valuable resource for parents who want to feel better and do better.Key topics:Thirdzy sleep aid vs Beam CBD sleep powderNatural sleep without melatonin or grogginessWHOOP deep sleep tracking & resultsParenting psychology: harmful vs helpful languageHow dads can balance health, stress, and emotional parentingT⏱️ YouTube Timestamps00:00 – Welcome & Episode 18 Overview01:32 – Ray’s First Experience with Thirds Sleep Supplement02:41 – Beam CBD Sleep Aid: How It Worked (and Downsides)03:35 – Why Ray Switched from Beam to Thirds04:36 – Sleep Tracking with Whoop & Deep Sleep Benefits06:11 – Doctor’s Opinion on Thirds (Non-Melatonin Advantage)07:33 – Real-Life Benefits: Waking Up Rested Without Grogginess08:37 – How Thirds Makes 3 Hours Feel Like 809:54 – Sleep Patterns & Recovery Insights10:20 – Why Ray Subscribed to Thirds for Good11:13 – Nootropic-Based Pre-Workout Introduction12:04 – Parenting Story: The Ice Cream Incident13:09 – “What’s Wrong With You?” – Harmless or Harmful?14:40 – The Context Matters: Behavior vs. Personal Traits15:46 – “I Wish You Were More Like…” – Healthy Advice or Hurtful Comparison?16:49 – When Comparison is Used for Positive Traits17:21 – Cultural Context: Asian Firstborn Expectations18:27 – Final Thoughts on Parenting Phrases & Character Development👇 Drop your thoughts below!✅ Don’t forget to LIKE 👍, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE for more honest talks on health, recovery, and parenting.🔔 Hit the bell so you never miss an episode!Reach out to Jerrard or RayJerrard-Jmparfait@gmail.comJerrard-IG is @itsparfait Ray-rbelvin91@gmail.comMelatonin-Free Sleep & Recovery for Peak fitness-Hit this link and use our promo code-NDOZZZhttps://thirdzy.com/Need a new energy drink get Dubby Energy!https://www.dubby.gg/discount/NEWDADO...We are also on the following sites:Instagram- / newdadorderpodcast1 Spotify-https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show...tiktok- / newdadorder
