How Long Can You Go Without Sleep?

In today’s world, sleep is either a luxury we can’t afford or a battle we can’t win. Whether it’s our tech-driven, fast-paced lifestyles, all-night study sessions, or the relentless pressure to be productive, getting enough rest often takes a backseat. Add in anxiety, chronic stress, or full-blown insomnia (which affects about one in three people), and suddenly, sleep isn’t just elusive—it’s impossible.

Well, howdy! Thanks for giving my site a gander. I suppose you're all the way down here to learn a bit more about little ol' me. My name is Bjólan Holyoak. I’m a full-time writer and creative director with an extensive background in visual media marketing. I’ve mastered communication and interactions with customers at every touch point along their journey. 

I've lived abroad for several years and taken that worldview into my career. You’ll see my work on your TV, hear it on the radio, get cozy on it as you sleep, and study it on industry-leading sites.

Hopefully, I'll have the chance to work on something amazing with you soon!
