Ep 114. Night-Shift Eating with Dr. Yel'Ora

One in every four workers in the US works the night shift. So when the sun goes down and the other 3/4ths are getting ready for bed, they're starting their day of work. If you've never experienced this before, take a moment to think about the unique challenges this kind of work poses...
You might be wondering things like, "when are they supposed to eat?", "how do they spend time with their families?", "when do they sleep?", "how do they get good quality sleep?", etc... And these are all very valid questions that, in all honesty, a lot of night shift workers haven't quite figured it out.
For professional women, such as healthcare workers, who work the night shift, finding a sustainable way to do this kind of work is crucial to long-term professional success, as well as being able to maintain a happy and balanced life outside of work. Here's where today's guest steps in!
Dr. Chinyelu E. Oraedu, also known as Dr. Yel'Ora, is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, and is the CEO and founder of Dr. Yel'Ora Lifestyle & Obesity Coaching for night workers. She founded her coaching practice after going on a total lifestyle makeover in which she dedicated herself to becoming very intentional about the way she lives her life in order to thrive in shift work. She engrossed herself in the research about night shift work and put together a program to support, empower and transform the experiences of other workers as they face the unique challenges associated with their non-standard work schedule.
In this episode of the Vibrant Menopause Podcast, Dr. Yel'Ora shares her perspective on night shift work, how she got into it in the first place, and how she learned to make the most of it for herself and others. Her goal is to help normalize this type of work and put workers in a position where they can embrace its advantages without sacrificing on their physical health, mental health, families, social engagements, and anything else that's important to them.
