episode is brought to you by Helix Sleep. Helix Sleep is a premium mattress brand that provides tailored mattresses based on your sleep preferences. Their lineup includes 14 unique mattresses, including a collection of luxury models, a mattress for big and tall sleepers, that's not me, and even a mattress made specifically for kids. They have models with memory foam layers to provide optimal pressure relief if you sleep on your side, as I often do and did last night on one of their beds.
Models with more responsive foam to cradle your body for essential support in stomach and back sleeping positions and on and on, they have you covered. So how will you know which Helix mattress works best for you and your body? Take the Helix Sleep Quiz at helixsleep.com/tim and find your perfect mattress in less than two minutes. Personally, for the last few years, I have been sleeping on a Helix Midnight Luxe mattress. I also have one of those in the guest bedroom and feedback from friends has always been fantastic. They frequently say it's the best night of sleep they've had in ages. It's something they comment on without any prompting from me whatsoever. Helix mattresses are American-made and come with a 10- or 15-year warranty, depending on the model. Your mattress will be shipped straight to your door free of charge. There's no better way to test out a new mattress than by sleeping on it in your own home. That's why they offer a 100-night risk-free trial. If you decide it's not the best fit, you're welcome to return it for a full refund. Helix has been awarded No. 1 mattress by both GQ and Wired magazines. And now Helix has harnessed years of extensive mattress expertise to bring you a truly elevated sleep experience. Their newest collection of mattresses called Helix Elite includes six different mattress models, each tailored for specific sleep positions and firmness preferences. So you can get exactly what your body needs. Each Helix Sleep mattress comes with an extra layer of foam for pressure relief and thousands of extra microcoils for best-in-class support and durability. Every Helix Sleep mattress also comes with a 15-year manufacturer's warranty and the same 100-night trial as the rest of Helix's mattresses. During the month of May, Helix is running their Memorial Day sale. You can get between 25% and 30% off, plus two free pillows on all mattress orders. So go to helixsleep.com/tim to check it out. That's helixsleep.com/tim.
With Helix, better sleep starts now.
This episode is brought to you by One Password. I have been using One Password for more than a decade. It is one of my favorite products.
I met the founding team early on, loved those guys, and I have made this product a requirement for everyone on my team.
Data breaches affect everyone. They can be catastrophic. And my feeling is, since that is the case, you need One Password. One Password combines industry-leading security with award-winning design to bring private, secure, and user-friendly password management to everyone. I use this dozens of times a day. It is an award-winning password manager trusted by millions of users and more than 100,000 businesses from IBM to Slack, even including my little team. It beat out 40 other options to become Wirecutter's top pick for password managers.
One Password lets you securely switch between iPhone, Android, Mac, and PC with convenient features like Autofill for quick sign-ins.
All you have to remember is the one strong account password that protects everything else. Your logins, your credit cards, secure notes, or the office Wi-Fi password. One Password creates as many strong unique passwords as you need and securely stores them in an encrypted vault that only you have access to. You can also use it for one-time passwords where you scan the QR code and it gives you two-factor authentication with the countdown with unique numbers. That type of thing. So instead of using a separate app for those types of authenticator type functions, you can use one password.
Plus, regular third-party audits and the industry's largest bug bounty, keep one password at the forefront of security.
So start protecting your business today with one password. Companies suffer from data breaches daily all the time, losing time and money dealing with extortion, stolen customer data and more. I have personally dealt with a lot of these headaches. You don't want them. It is why using one password is a business best practice I strongly endorse and a business solution that I use myself. So check it out. Get a free two-week trial at onepassword.com/tim. That's one, the number one, password.com/tim.
