Elizabeth Shannon is a sleep evangelist, researcher, educator, and outlying industry expert. She was introduced to brain wave technologies and meditation in 1978 at pioneering personal development seminars. This interest continued outside of her professional work at KPMG, Kellogg's and the NAB - as peak performance was not discussed in workplaces at the time. Her Compatibility Blanket(TM) bedding invention, which solves the nightly battle of the bedclothes for hot and cold bed partners, saw a return to sleep research in 2000. She hosted the 9 week "Sleep with the Experts" webinar series in 2009 which was attended by insomniacs and health care professionals from all 5 continents, and lead to the "Sleep Mojo" book, which has been updated and incorporated into "Alarming Sleep Secrets". Shannon is a regular on the Today Show, featured on 9am with David and Kim, Radio KPCC Southern California, 2UE, 3AW, 4BC, 6PR, ABC, the Sydney Morning Herald, Herald-Sun, The Age, the Sunday Telegraph, HC Online and numerous publications. Robert Whitaker's exceptional book "Anatomy of an Epidemic" deeply disturbed Elizabeth knowing the connection between lack of sleep and mental health problems, and the inadequacies of treatments. Peter G?tzsche's 2015 presentation "Mental Health: Overdiagnosed and Overmedicated" in Sydney cemented Shannon's resolve to write another book, in straight forward language, to highlight the gap between what is being sold as "evidence-based-medicine" and the enormous harms being done. She makes no apology for not being a medical doctor or professor. "Alarming Sleep Secrets" highlights mismanagement, malpractice, conflicts of interest, professional negligence and corporate and government duty of care breaches. 'Qualified experts' created, represent, organize and actively support this fundamentally broken system that is costing many lives, and the lives of children. Clearly an independent review is what's needed, starting with a Royal Commission. An economics graduate from the University of Sydney, her interdisciplinary experience includes KPMG, NAB, DEC, Kellogg's, Network Ten, personal development, real estate, agriculture, horticulture, creative arts and not-for-profits. She has a son and lives in Sydney. Her next mission is a funny documentary.
