Text me what you thought of the show 😊

An edited version of my segment on 3AW Melbourne, Australia Overnight.

Talking shift work and anything else that comes up along the way.

We move from public trust and “cashies” to why organisations say there’s “no money” for staff wellbeing, then dig into mornings, social jet lag, and simple fixes that make Monday feel human again. Roger shares practical, low-cost tools for energy, sleep, and stress relief that anyone can try tomorrow.

• everyday ethics vs systemic misuse of public funds 
• budget excuses for staff education challenged 
• unplanned leave, fatigue and safety costs 
• first 10 minutes after waking as keystone 
• sky before screen and hydrate before you caffeinate 
• morning light to anchor circadian rhythm 
• sleep duration vs consistent wake time 
• social jet lag across weekends explained 
• caller stories on fatigue, routine and resilience 
• bullying at work acknowledged with support offered 
• 4-7-8 breathwork to reduce night wakings
