Show Notes

Brooke Buckley is a graduate from Duquesne University where she majored in biochemistry. She was diagnosed with narcolepsy about at 22 years old. As a speaker with Project Sleep’s Rising Voices program, she shares her story in hopes of helping others by bringing awareness to this often misunderstood condition.

The Rising Voices Series features a variety of first-hand stories from people living with sleep disorders around the world. At Project Sleep, we believe in the power of storytelling to raise awareness and break down stigma. This is why we train people with sleep disorders on how to share their experiences through the Rising Voices program.
