Text me what you thought of the show 😊

Most shift workers are unknowingly wrecking their sleep—and it’s fixable. In this episode, I break down the most common sleep mistakes and turn them into simple habits you can repeat on any roster. Early daylight, movement, a caffeine cut-off, skipping the nightcap, and real stress care become a toolkit you can rely on to improve sleep depth, energy, and recovery.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How early daylight resets the circadian clock
  • Ways to build sleep pressure without the gym
  • The 12 o’clock caffeine rule that protects sleep
  • Why alcohol fragments REM and deep sleep
  • Simple wind-down routines that actually work
  • Stress practices that calm the nervous system
  • Five common sleep sabotages—reversed
  • How to set routines for rotating rosters

If this resonated and you're ready to fix your sleep, book a one-to-one assessment call using the link in the show notes.
