In today's always-on tech environment, sleep is often the first thing women sacrifice in the pursuit of productivity. Yet research consistently shows that quality sleep is one of the most powerful drivers of cognitive performance, creativity, decision-making, resilience, and long-term health.

For many women, particularly during midlife, hormonal changes can quietly disrupt sleep, leading to fatigue, brain fog, reduced concentration, mood changes, and burnout—often at the very time they are leading teams, driving innovation, and navigating complex careers.

We're delighted to welcome back Annie Gaudreault, nutritionist and women's health expert, whose previous sessions have been a favorite among our community. In this engaging and evidence-based session, Annie explores the science of sleep and its profound impact on professional performance. Participants will learn practical, evidence-based strategies to improve sleep quality, restore energy, sharpen focus, and build resilience, without relying solely on sleeping pills or simply hoping for a better night's rest.

This session goes beyond sleep hygiene to provide actionable tools that help women reclaim their energy, protect their cognitive performance, and gain the competitive advantage that comes from being truly well-rested.

Key takeaways for attendees:

• Understand why sleep becomes more challenging during midlife and how it affects performance.
• Improve sleep quality using evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle strategies.
• Enhance energy, cognitive function, resilience, and recovery through better sleep.
• Build sustainable habits that support long-term health, healthy aging, and leadership success.
