Feeling better on shift does not start with strict diets or perfect routines. It starts with habits that actually fit real shift work life. In this episode, I share the approach that kept me healthy through more than 40 years on rotating rosters. I explain how decision fatigue shapes your evenings, why small routines create stability no matter your schedule, and the circadian anchors that help your body recover faster, think clearer, and maintain steady energy. This is a practical reset built for shift workers who want results without overwhelm.

What I Cover:

  • Why decision fatigue makes evenings harder and how to reduce it
  • Tiny routines that lower friction and improve consistency
  • Circadian anchors that support better sleep, energy, and focus
  • The myths that keep shift workers stuck (scales, macro obsession, rigid meal prep)
  • The core habits that create real change
  • How small wins compound into better mood, steady energy, and fewer cravings

Inside the 21-Day Shift Work RESET Challenge:

  • Weekly habit checklists
  • Daily support in a private group
  • Quick explainer videos
  • Live Q and A access
  • Webinar library on women’s health, supplementation, and performance
  • Optional FebFast to speed up sleep and mood improvements
