Text me what you thought of the show 😊
Shift work isn’t gender neutral, and women are paying the price.
In this episode, I break down why female bodies struggle more with 24/7 rosters — and what can actually help.
- How circadian and menstrual cycles clash
- Why PMS, gut issues, and poor recovery are more common in women
- Why standard shift work advice fails most female workers
- What needs to change — for individuals and organisations
Listen now to understand what’s really going on — and how to protect your health, energy, and hormones.
If you're a woman working shifts — or leading a team who does — this is the information you’ve been missing.
