How do you get better sleep on the road? I used to be okay, but after five months of remote work I can’t seem to get any decent sleep in the hotels vs my own bed

You might already know this, but half your brain doesn't reach later stages of deep sleep when you're in a new environment as a defense mechanism to stay alert to unknown dangers. Maybe do something to try and trick yourself into feeling at home? Aggressive workouts also sounds good

Did not know that. Very interesting and good advice. Thanks P2!

Aggressive workouts, yoga, and/or mediation.

Hello Everyone,

I am in search of a Project Manager role. I have about 4 + years experience managing projects and in consulting.

I am about concluding the google certificate in project management, and one unique think I bring into any team is my strategic thinking and ability to solve problems in record time.

I am based in Canada and a remote role will be great.

I anticipate your responses and recommendations thank you very much.
