This week, I'm bringing back the amazing story of Heather Brooke, a beauty pageant winner, licensed counselor, and author of the children's book, “Where Is My Hair? A Trichotillomania Story for Children”. Heather grew up with trichotillomania and now she treats patients who are dealing with this disorder. In this episode from the vault, Heather talks about how she came down with this condition, how it impacted her throughout her life, and how she supports others with their own journeys. Understanding Trichotillomania: A Lesser-Known Cause of Hair Loss Hair loss is a common issue that many people face, but not all hair loss is the same. Trichotillomania is a lesser-known disorder that causes individuals to compulsively pull out their own hair, often as a coping mechanism to deal with trauma or extreme stress. Unlike other forms of hair loss that may be due to medical conditions, hormonal changes, or genetics, trichotillomania is sometimes rooted in psychological distress. Heather, a beauty pageant competitor and therapist, shares her personal journey with trichotillomania stemming from childhood trauma.  Finding a Solution: Heather's Journey to Recovery For those dealing with trichotillomania, finding an effective solution can be a long and complicated process. Heather describes her journey through different types of treatment and medication, none of which provided a complete solution for her. Her preferred approach covers her bald spots, which also helps keep her from pulling her hair out in those spots as well so they have the opportunity to heal. This option not only concealed the effects of her trichotillomania but also instilled a newfound sense of confidence in Heather. She shares that seeing a full head of hair again was a transformative experience for her. Coping with Hair Loss: A Message of Hope Heather's story is a beacon of hope for others dealing with hair loss, whether due to trichotillomania or other reasons. She emphasizes that no one is alone in this struggle and encourages people to seek out solutions that work for them. As Heather has shown, solutions like hers can significantly improve one's quality of life by restoring both hair and confidence. Her journey underscores the importance of seeking help and exploring all available options. For those feeling lost and overwhelmed, Heather's message is clear: there is hope, and effective solutions are within reach. Resources Book a Free Consultation today!

Hair loss is a universal issue, transcending age and gender. From children to adults, many face the challenge of hair thinning or complete hair loss. At just nine years old, our guest, Heather, began experiencing the overwhelming urge to pull out her hair. By her early teenage years, she was diagnosed with trichotillomania. Join host Kevin Rolston as he engages in an enlightening conversation with Heather Brooke - a licensed professional counselor, beauty pageant champion, and the mind behind the children's book, "Where's My Hair? A Trichotillomania Story for Children." “What Happened To Your Eyelashes?” After experiencing a traumatic event at 9, Heather's coping mechanism manifested as pulling out hairs—starting from her eyelashes, moving to eyebrows, and eventually her scalp. Because she had naturally long eyelashes and voluminous hair, the impact remained concealed from her family for a while. When her family began to take notice, Heather hid the truth – that she was pulling her hair out. A discernible bald patch on Heather's head was the turning point, prompting her family to explore possible remedies. Trichotillomania Couldn't Hold Her Back Unfazed by her hair loss challenges, Heather Brooke courageously participated in beauty pageants throughout her life, from childhood and into her adult years. As a young contestant, wigs and clip-in extensions became her trusted companions to help cover the bald areas. In 2017, Heather competed in the Ms. Woman Colorado United States pageant. Her association with HairClub provided her with optimal hair solutions and she ended up taking home the crown! Seeking Treatments Throughout her life, Heather has explored various treatments. It is an ongoing process, as she still struggles with trichotillomania today. Not much research has been done on trichotillomania, though it is a recognized mental health disorder. Her hair system from HairClub covers the “trigger points” caused by her trichotillomania which reduces her urge to pull her hair out.  “Where Is My Hair? A Trichotillomania Story for Children” Heather is now a licensed professional counselor and has worked with kids who also have trichotillomania! One of her young clients inspired her to write a children's book that could help them understand trichotillomania better. Resources Pick up a copy of Heather's book, “Where Is My Hair?

In this episode, we speak with cognitive neuroscientist Stephen Fleming about theories of consciousness and how they relate to artificial intelligence. We discuss key concepts like global workspace theory, higher order theories, computational functionalism, and how neuroscience research on consciousness in humans can inform our understanding of whether machines may ever achieve consciousness. In particular, we talk with Steve about a recent ⁠research paper⁠, Consciousness in Artificial Intelligence, which he co-authored with Patrick Butlin, Robert Long, Yoshua Bengio, and several others. Steve provides an overview of different perspectives from philosophy and psychology on what mechanisms may give rise to consciousness. He explains global and local theories, the idea of a higher order system monitoring lower level representations, and similarities and differences between human and machine intelligence. The conversation explores current limitations in neuroscience for studying consciousness empirically and opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration between neuroscientists and AI researchers. Key Takeaways: Consciousness and intelligence are separate concepts—you can have one without the other Global workspace theory proposes consciousness arises when information is broadcast to widespread brain areas Higher order theories suggest a higher system monitoring lower representations enables consciousness Computational functionalism looks at information processing rather than biological substrate Attributing intelligence versus attributing experience/consciousness invoke different dimensions of social perception More research needed in neuroscience and social psychology around people's intuitions about machine consciousness ⁠Stephen Fleming⁠ is Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at the Department of Experimental Psychology, University College London. Steve's work aims to understand the mechanisms supporting human subjective experience and metacognition by employing a combination of psychophysics, brain imaging and computational modeling. He is the author of *⁠Know Thyself*,⁠ a book on the science of metacognition, about which we interviewed him on Artificiality in December of 2021. Episode Notes:  2:13 - Origins of the paper Stephen co-authored on consciousness in artificial intelligence 5:17 - Discussion of demarcating intelligence vs phenomenal consciousness in AI 6:34 - Explanation of computational functionalism and mapping functions between humans and machines 13:42 - Examples of theories like global workspace theory and higher order theories 19:27 - Clarifying when sensory information reaches consciousness under global theories 23:02 - Challenges in precisely defining aspects like the global workspace computationally 28:35 - Connections between higher order theories and generative adversarial networks 30:43 - Ongoing empirical evidence still needed to test higher order theories 36:52 - Iterative process needed to update theories based on advancing neuroscience 40:40 - Open questions remaining despite foundational research on consciousness 46:14 - Mismatch between public perceptions and indicators from neuroscience theories 50:30 - Experiments probing anthropomorphism and consciousness attribution 56:17 - Surprising survey results on public views of AI experience 59:36 - Ethical issues raised if public acceptance diverges from scientific consensus If you enjoy our podcasts, please subscribe and leave a positive rating or comment.

Change always creates ripples in our lives – or tsunamis – depending on the magnitude of the situation. Some of these we create by our own actions. At other times we are impacted by circumstances totally outside of our personal control. How we deal with these situations can build courage, grit, resilience, and the eventual ability to positively move forward if we so choose.

In this episode of the series, host Susan Ney talks about how each of us has all we need inside of ourselves to be find the leadership within us and to be our very best version of “us”. Using sections of her book Leadership Inside Out: Effecting Change from Within (available on Amazon), through the use of story she speaks of the internal gremlins that get in our way, how we frequently judge ourselves to be not enough, and often look to others to determine our paths. She encourages the listener to reflect on their own journey and thought patterns and to choose to “do” differently when these are getting in the way. “Dare to Soar!” And consider asking a friend to help find the thermals when we can't find them for ourselves. It is whimsical, thought provoking and fun! About the Host: Susan has worked with people all her life.
