How to remove sleep icon from home

I have looked at every setting that I can find. Apple continues to share information I don’t want shared like my focus. I cannot get rid of this bed icon from my screen no matter what setting I have tried

Hi there Froggy_abc,

We understand you're trying to remove the Sleep icon from the status bar on your iPhone.

This icon indicates you have Sleep Focus enabled. Learn more about this here: Use Focus on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If you're still seeing the icon after disabling Sleep Focus, restart your iPhone, and check again.

Thanks!
