Lisa

Lisa lives in Queensland and is a Domestic Violence Survivor-Advocate. 

My experience includes sleep abuse and, combined with the trauma of all the other patterns of abuse I was experiencing, my nervous system and sleep were severely impacted.  

I'm also the main carer for my mother who lives with Dementia following an Alzheimer’s disease and Frontotemporal dementia diagnosis. 

My mother’s issues with sleep sparked my own interest in the link between dementia and sleep, which is how I came across the Sleep Health Foundation. 

Currently, I'm on a journey to learn more about sleep health and would love to share my experiences and insights with others who have similar life experiences.
