Ever feel like the demands of shift work are eating away at your life? 
Are your relationships, eating habits, and even intimate connections all taking a hit? 

I'm Roger Sutherland, your companion in this journey. With hands-on experience as a shift worker and my expertise as a certified nutritionist, I'll guide you through a thorough assessment of your work life, home life, and social life. 
We'll uncover the realities that often go unspoken, and I'll share tips on how to not just survive, but thrive in this challenging environment.

As we delve deeper, we'll highlight the crucial topic of health and well-being. We'll talk about the importance of hydration, regular movement, stress management - all key elements to maintaining optimal health as a shift worker. You'll learn how to balance your work schedule and personal life, and most importantly, how to prioritize your mental well-being amidst the challenges of shift work. 

I'm here to empower you to make the most out of your shift-working life. 
Tune in as we discuss these topics and more. 

This is a conversation we need to have!
