The National Sleep Foundation recommends seven to nine hours of sleep per night for adults between 18 and 64 years old, yet more than one-third of adults aren’t getting the recommended sleep and between 10% and 30% of adults struggle with insomnia. A host of studies and reports has linked insufficient sleep to depression, ADHD, obesity, Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s. Back in 2014, the CDC labeled sleep deprivation a public health epidemic— with over 70 million adults suffering from a sleep disorder.
On today’s episode I interviewed sleep and rest expert, Amanda Slinger to explore the topic. Amanda has a medical background and over 20 years of experience working in educating organisations on the critical role that rest and sleep play in optimising individual and collective performance.
Leading her team at SleepSpot, she has built a visionary, science-based Employee Recharge Programme, which is reshaping the landscape of workplace wellbeing by helping organisations nurture a healthy, engaged and happy workforce.

*Trigger warning* - content may be disturbing or upsetting.
Jamie Mitchel is a former Australian under-19s cricketer who now works at Autism Tasmania in a support coordination role.
Jamie courageously shared with me that he has been living with bottled up stress and PTSD for decades, after he was the victim of a traumatic incident that occurred while on a tour of India and Sri Lanka when he was 18. He has recently spoken out publicly about his sexual assault and the lack of support available for male survivors of sexual violence.
Jamie was open, vulnerable and honest in discussing the impact it has had on himself and those around him. His story shines a light on the importance of creating an open conversation around Men’s mental health and male sexual abuse.
