Shift Workers, Mental Health and Nutrition Panel

Libby is here today with Jennie Harris and Jill Mongenen. The topic is shift workers, mental health, and nutrition. Both of them work with professionals who struggle with shift work and how that affects them, their feelings, and their emotions.

Jennie Harris as a registered dietitian and board certified health and wellness coach. Her focus on physician performance nutrition combines her professional expertise as a dietitian with her personal experience of being married to a surgeon and as a competitive endurance athlete. Specifically, her practice helps women in medicine meet and exceed the unique set of nutrition requirements that their job demands. By optimizing nutrition and creating a healthy relationship with food, Jennie's clients are able to focus on their practices and still have enough energy to enjoy life outside of medicine.

Jill Mongenen is a registered dietitian, former tax accountant, a run coach and metabolic specialist. Jill became a dietitian at age forty eight after helping her husband who was a thirty four year old widebody international commercial airline pilot, with his celiac disease, high blood pressure and prediabetes. Jill went directly from her internship into private practice as a former tax accountant, she spent over 10 years behind a desk with no vacations and fielding thousands of tax returns with little human contact. Funny that during her dietetic program, a professor told her she would never get an internship if she did not have clinical experience. With over 15 years of experience working with commercial and cargo airline pilots, she was able to help improve their health for more successful results on the Federal Aviation Administration medical certified certificate exam. She is passionate about making nutrition easy and fun to reduce the stress pilots face now during covid and always.
