Share Your Sleep Story project aims to connect the data with the voices of the individuals who face the challenges of sleep, due to their profession, life-altering events, social, and environmental circumstances or sleep disorders to list a few. Through candid conversations, we seek to capture the often-overlooked variability in the impact of sleep and its loss on individuals’ lives. Our goal is to raise awareness, advocate for these groups, and influence policymakers to prioritize sleep as a key factor driving health outcomes, ultimately reducing the negative consequences for both individuals and society.

“A life with night shift work and lack of sleep is like a marathon that we impose on ourselves to try to reconcile family life, work and leisure but which has immediate and long-term consequences on the mind and body.” – Julie, night shift nurse
