Hello Sustainable Friends,

Welcome to my Podcast guest, Dorina Torje. She is from Romania, loves travelling and resides in Belgium. I found her real-life story inspiring. Amidst career shifts as an IT consultant, Dorina experienced the most dangerous stage of her 12-year struggle with insomnia. The sleeping pills she had relied on stopped working, even at triple the dose. Her body had reached its limit.

Listen to how:

1. She felt the universe had aligned to force her into a full reset.

2. She had to start from scratch, not just in her career, but in her life.

3. Became a junior IT team member again, relearning the fundamentals of AI.

4. At the same time, being sent home by doctors with a simple but life-altering directive: take care of yourself, and relearn how to sleep.

5. She took control of insomnia!

🎧💚 Please listen, enjoy, like, and share!

Many thanks,
