Text me what you thought of the show 😊Imagine the unpredictable, sleep-depriving, and gruelling nature of shift work. Now, picture thriving in it rather than just surviving. That's exactly what our special guest, Miriam, an Australian police officer with eight years of shift work experience, teaches us. Her enlightening journey, complete with personal struggles and triumphs, offers invaluable insights into managing the relentless demands of shift work. From dealing with sleeplessness to seeking psychological aid, her story underscores the importance of having effective strategies to navigate through these challenges.But, the journey doesn't stop here. We switch gears and discuss health and nutrition, especially significant for shift workers. Replete with personal anecdotes and breakthroughs, our guest Miriam, shares her battles with disordered eating and the road to recovery. Her transformation from a struggling individual to a powerlifter, under my coaching, demonstrates the transformative potential of the right guidance. Her story is a testament to the power of sustained support and the role it plays in overcoming personal obstacles.As we delve deeper, we realize that many of these struggles arise from a lack of education and support for shift workers, especially in fields like emergency services. Mary highlights the pressing need for consistent education and reinforcement throughout one's career. Wrapping up, we stress the significance of balancing work with personal life, reminding you that thriving in shift work is indeed achievable. So tune in, get inspired, and start your own journey of overcoming challenges in the world of shift work. You are not alone in this battle.
