Our vision is to serve our diverse community creating opportunities for a vibrant future lifestyle for people with Narcolepsy and other sleep disorders.

Hi, I’m Paul Poulos.

Meet the Founder of the Narcolepsy Life Academy - Paul Poulos.

Living with narcolepsy doesn’t need to define you; it's possible to lead a fulfilling and rewarding life. I, like many others, have shown this to be true. I enjoyed a successful international career and most importantly founded the Narcolepsy Life Academy.

My mission now is to empower others living with sleep disorders like narcolepsy to reach their full potential and pursue their dreams. While diagnosis and medication provide relief, there's so much more you can do for yourself. From adopting effective coping strategies to embracing holistic wellness practices, you can transform your life in meaningful ways.

Join me on this journey to unlock your full potential and live your best you. Together, we will explore techniques for managing symptoms, building resilience, and creating a balanced and joyful life despite the challenges of living with narcolepsy.

Words can not express my gratitude for not only your knowledge but for the time you have given me. I have seen so much growth within myself over the past 6 months. I have gained a level of acceptance within myself that did not show up before.
The growth I am seeing is inspiring which excites me for continuing this journey with you. I can’t recommend the Narcolepsy Life Academy enough!

The emotional safety he provides make lasting changes possible. I'm grateful for this exceptional experience that helps me achieve my goals much easier than before.
Uli Stechler

Starting coaching has been one of the most important things in my life. After my Narcolepsy diagnosis, I struggled to see any light at the end of the tunnel. Paul not only showed me it’s possible, but guided me far beyond what I thought I could achieve.
I’m more confident, in control, and proud of who I am - someone living with N but thriving in ways I never thought possible.
Agustina Seghezzo

Working with Paul has truly transformed my life. Living with narcolepsy often felt like an uphill battle, but Paul’s coaching has helped me see that it doesn’t have to be a constant struggle.
It’s amazing to see the difference in my mood and energy! I never thought I could feel this optimistic about my situation, and I’m so grateful for the positive changes I’ve experienced.

When I met Paul, I had no purpose. Life seemed pointless. I wasn’t sure how to change, and was afraid coaching would be overwhelming.
But it has been the opposite. Paul is the most caring & understanding coach I have ever had. Really, there are not enough words to express my gratitude to him. You won’t ever regret coaching with him. You owe it to yourself to change your life!

During Paul's coaching sessions, I was able to reconnect with the part of myself that is organised, intuitive, and driven.
His friendly, gentle & insightful manner aided me in developing mastery over accomplishing small, manageable tasks - seeking to improve 1% daily. Thank you Paul for putting yourself out there & helping others.

Paul has shown me that not only is it possible to take your career and personal life to the next level. His approach is a perfect blend of support, guidance, and challenge, helping me to step out of my comfort zone and see new ways of doing things.
