Smell and culture. Scent descriptions in novels. Fragrances and class. Stink and stigmas. We cover it all. Scholar, author, and Literary Olfactologist Dr. Ally Louks burst into the zeitgeist in 2024 with her PhD thesis “Olfactory Ethics, The Politics Of Smell In Modern And Contemporary Prose” and we finally got to sit down and talk about the intersection of art and smell and culture. Breathe in the foul, the fragrant, the peppermint, the tobacco, why motel rooms smell the way they do, the forgotten organ that could control your love life, spices at the root of xenophobia, perfume ads that cruised a movement, obscenity trials, explosions, following your first love and getting the last laugh.Follow Dr. Louks on Instagram and BlueskyA donation went to UN Crisis Relief's Occupied Palestinian Territory Humanitarian FundMore episode sources and linksOther episodes you may enjoy: Rhinology (NOSES), Gustology (TASTE), Misophonology (DISTRACTING SOUND & NOISE RAGE), Disgustology (REPULSION TO GROSS STUFF), Coffeeology (YEP, COFFEE), Black American Magirology (FOOD, RACE & CULTURE), Indigenous Cuisinology (NATIVE COOKING), Cosmetology (GLAM/GROOMING), Genocidology (CRIMES OF ATROCITY)400+ episodes sorted by topicSmologies (short, classroom-safe) episodesSponsors of OlogiesTranscripts and bleeped episodesBecome a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a monthOlogiesMerch.com has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!Follow Ologies on Instagram and BlueskyFollow Alie Ward on Instagram and TikTokEditing by Mercedes Maitland of Maitland Audio Productions and Jake ChaffeeManaging Director: Susan HaleScheduling Producer: Noel DilworthTranscripts by Aveline Malek Website by Kelly R.

EP. 6: How Art Heals Grief with Sarah Barthel (Phantogram) Pt. 1 Dying Laughing with Jessimae Peluso In this deeply personal episode of Dying Laughing, Jessimae sits down with her dear friend and musical powerhouse, Sarah Barthel lead singer of Phantogram and one of the most beautiful souls on the planet. The two reflect on how they met during a USO Christmas tour, both navigating fresh grief, and how that shared heartbreak turned into an unshakable bond. Sarah opens up about losing her father, the tragic death of her sister by suicide, and how music and laughter have been vital lifelines through every stage of her healing. From on-stage performances to backstage breakdowns, they dive into the ways we hold pain, release it, and somehow still laugh in the middle of it all. Because sometimes, laughter is the medicine.

Send us a textIn this solo bite-sized episode of Sober Sparkle, I delve into something I've found incredibly powerful on my own sober curious journey - the belief-shifting mantra, “This is real, but not true.” It's a phrase I still use regularly, and it has helped me (and so many others) shift from reacting on autopilot to reclaiming real control over alcohol.We explore where our deeply embedded beliefs about alcohol come from - childhood memories, cultural rituals, sport, pop culture, and everyday social norms - and how these beliefs have shaped our relationship with drinking, often without us even realising it.I take you through practical, real-life examples of how to apply this mantra when you're triggered or craving a drink, and how to challenge whether what you're telling yourself is absolutely true. This episode is a gentle, supportive reminder that it's okay to feel your feelings - but you also have the power to question and reshape the beliefs that no longer serve you.

What if the biggest variable in your cell culture experiment isn't what your cells are doing, but what they're sensing? In this eye-opening episode of Cooperatively Speaking, host Allison Lambert sits down with Dr. Krista Rantanen of Baker to explore a commonly overlooked, but critical, factor in biomedical research: oxygen.They discuss how most human tissues operate at much lower oxygen levels than what's used in traditional lab settings, and why that matters. From cancer research to stem cell studies, Dr. Rantanen explains how replicating real oxygen conditions can lead to more accurate, reliable science. The episode also touches on common misconceptions, simple tips for getting started, and emerging technologies making low-oxygen culture more accessible.Guest: Dr. Krista Rantanen, Director of Scientific Applications, BakerHost: Allison Lambert, Category Marketing Manager, E&I Cooperative Services Relevant Links:E&I's Baker ContractCooperatively Speaking is hosted by E&I Cooperative Services, the only member-owned, non-profit procurement cooperative exclusively focused on serving the needs of education.

ADHD & Self-Awareness: Understanding Your Unique BrainCarmen (voice-over): Hey everyone, it's Carmen here from Authentically ADHD. Have you ever felt like you just don't know yourself? Like your brain is a mystery you can't solve? (I see your hand – yes, you too!) You're not alone. Today we're talking about ADHD and self-awareness – what that even means, why it's so tricky for us ADHDers, and how to start building trust in ourselves anyway. We'll go deep into the science, share real-life stories (hey, I'm no exception!), and even throw in a little humor – because sometimes laughing at our quirks is the best medicine.Quick overview: In this episode, I'll explain why ADHD makes self-awareness hard (from executive functions to time blindness), how that struggle feels (frustration, self-doubt, and those emotional roller coasters), and then dive into practical strategies for building self-trust and insight. I'll break it down into tips for teens and adults, since our brains and lives can be a bit different. Ready? Let's go!Why ADHD Brains Struggle with Self-AwarenessFirst, let's define what we mean by self-awareness. Simply put, it's your ability to self-reflect, self-evaluate, and think about your own thinking. Think of it as the “brain's mirror” – it lets you see your behaviors, emotions, and thoughts clearly, and learn from them. In psychology terms, it's often called metacognition. Researchers note that self-awareness is a key executive function – basically one of our brain's management skills. Unfortunately, ADHD often comes with executive function challenges, and yes, self-awareness is one of those tricky pieces.Dr. Russell Barkley, a leading ADHD researcher, actually puts it bluntly: ADHD is a disorder of self-regulation. We struggle to “adult” not because we're lazy or bad, but because the brain skills that manage ourselves were delayed or impaired. In fact, Barkley's team points out that ADHD involves deficits in things like self-restraint, self-awareness, self-control of emotion, and self-motivation. In other words, our internal “boss” is weaker. Kristen Carder – another expert and host of the I Have ADHD podcast – explains it simply: “ADHD is a disorder of self-regulation… we struggle to focus because our executive functions are deficient, and we can't regulate ourselves properly.”.Let's break down the key brain reasons behind this:Deficient Executive Functions (EFs): Executive functions are like the brain's CEO, planning tasks and managing actions. In ADHD, these are on the lower side. One of the six main EFs is exactly self-awareness (along with inhibition, working memory, etc.). Because ADHDers often have impaired EFs, our ability to notice and reflect on ourselves is less mature. Barkley even describes ADHD as a sort of “self-regulation deficit disorder,” meaning most EF skills are lagging. This isn't your fault – it's how the ADHD brain developed.Weak Working Memory: Working memory is your mental scratchpad – it holds pieces of information so you can use them in the moment. With ADHD, working memory (especially visual/spatial memory) often underperforms. Kristen Carder highlights this: our working memory should help us understand where we are in time and space, but ADHD brains tend to live too much in the “right now”. We literally forget what just happened or where we put things in seconds! This weak working memory means we struggle to recall past actions or project future consequences – both of which are vital for self-awareness.Time Blindness: Related to working memory is a phenomenon you've probably heard: time blindness. Dr. Barkley calls ADHD a “nearsightedness to the future.” He explains that people with ADHD are great at the “now,” but tend to lose track of time and future planning. On a practical level, this means deadlines sneak up on us, and we hyperfocus on immediate tasks without realizing how long they take. As one occupational therapist blog put it, ADHD time blindness is a “consistent inability to stay aware of time and consider the future in the present moment”. If you feel like hours can vanish in a blink – like you just started watching Netflix and suddenly it's midnight – that's the classic ADHD time warp. Without a good sense of past vs. future, it's tough to reflect on what really happened or plan for what will happen, hurting our self-awareness.Emotional & Cognitive Overload: Let's not forget emotional regulation, a cousin to self-awareness. ADHD often comes with intense emotions. A study describes ADHDers having overactive amygdalas (emotion centers) and underactive frontal cortex (self-control center). The result? We feel things more strongly and have a harder time stepping back. When an emotional wave hits, self-reflection goes out the window. (Ever snapped at a loved one then immediately felt guilty but couldn't explain why? Welcome to ADHD emotions.) When our emotions are surging and our working memory is full of racing thoughts, self-monitoring simply doesn't happen. It's like trying to inspect your car while it's driving 100 mph – hard to do!To sum up: Our ADHD brains often have weaker mental checking-stations. We're built to do (and do lots of things at once!), but not naturally built to watch ourselves doing it. This combination of EF deficits, fuzzy time perception, and big feelings makes self-awareness elusive. It's not a character flaw – it's brain wiring. And understanding this fact can be a huge relief. As Kristen Carder gently reminds us, “It's not because you're lazy or dumb, it's because your executive function skills are deficient.”When Self-Awareness Lags: Frustration and Self-DoubtBecause of these brain differences, not being very self-aware in ADHD can lead to some painful and confusing feelings. Let's be real: it's frustrating. You make the same mistakes over and over (feeding the dog after work instead of before, again!), and you can't put your finger on why. Kristen Carder admits that “making the same mistakes over and over… is in part because of lack of self-awareness”. You might constantly feel, “Why do I keep doing this?” and blame yourself for “not paying attention” or being “careless.”This frustration often spirals into self-doubt. If you're always confused about how you ended up here, it's easy to start thinking there's something wrong with you. People with ADHD commonly internalize shame. Maybe your teacher said you were lazy, or your boss has yelled “just focus!” one too many times. Dr. Saline notes that ADHDers often have more self-criticism and have to work extra hard to develop metacognition. If you've tried and failed at organizing or remembering, you may feel like you should know better – even though, neuro-scientifically, your brain literally struggles in those areas.Worse, poor self-awareness can feed into emotional turmoil. The Verywell Mind article on ADHD emotional dysregulation points out that intense emotions and ADHD create “self-doubt and uncertainty surrounding your feelings.” Imagine overreacting to something small (a spilled coffee feels like the end of the world) and afterward thinking “Am I crazy? Why do I feel this strongly? Am I making too much out of nothing?” Your brain's amygdala fires off a storm, and then your frontal lobe struggles to calm it. All this leads to a painful cycle: you feel overwhelmed, regret your reaction, then start doubting if your emotions were valid at all.On the flip side, others see you acting impulsive or scattered and often misinterpret you. They might label you “irresponsible” or “unmotivated,” which hurts. For example, in school a student with ADHD might frequently miss deadlines or seem to procrastinate, not because they don't care, but because “they have difficulty estimating how much time has passed or how long a task will take”. Teachers sometimes think that's willful misbehavior, not realizing it's our brains. Or maybe friends get annoyed because you interrupt conversations (you had about a million ideas to share, didn't you?), or your partner thinks you're aloof when really you're just lost in thought. The gap between the internal experience (“I'm overwhelmed and panicked!”) and the external behavior (“She doesn't care”) is real, and that gap fuels frustration.In short, struggling with self-awareness often looks like: repeating mistakes, feeling confused and anxious about your own actions, and battling guilt or self-criticism when others misread your ADHD traits. It's emotionally draining. But here's the hopeful flip side: knowing the “why” can help you reframe these feelings. When you realize it's ADHD wiring, you can start treating yourself with compassion instead of blame. Recognizing that your brain is just wired differently – not “wrong” – is the first big step to building trust in yourself.AD BREAKInside vs. Outside: Living with ADHD from Both SidesLet's take a quick look at that inside/outside story. Internally, ADHD brains are a whirlwind of thoughts, feelings, and ideas. Externally, people might see the aftermath and misunderstand it. Some examples:Inside (Internal Experience): You're juggling thoughts about work deadlines, why your crush hasn't texted back, the groceries you forgot, and that song stuck in your head. You feel an urge to do something about something but aren't sure what. Maybe an emotion flares – frustration, excitement, anxiety – and your body reacts (heart races, hands fidget). Time feels like fluid: one minute into an activity, 5 minutes have passed; five minutes later, 2 hours have gone by. You might think, “I know I had an important task – what happened to that?!” or “I had a burst of creativity at 3 am – why couldn't I use that during the day?”Outside (Behavior Others See): From the outside, that might look like you spaced out during a meeting, then suddenly snapped at a coworker. Or you were hyper-focused on organizing your bookshelves, only to snap back when someone asked where your homework is. Friends might say, “She was so quiet earlier, now she's yelling about nothing” or “He started cleaning the house at 2 a.m. again!” Partners might feel like they live with someone who's unpredictable – one moment “present,” the next moment distant or distracted. Teachers sometimes see kids with ADHD as unruly or lazy: a student might rush through a test carelessly because they felt they needed to finish fast, and the teacher hears “she didn't do her work carefully.”This mismatch can be heartbreaking. People might not realize that inside your head, you were frantically trying to tie clues together or waiting for your brain to slow down. Kristen Carder reminds us: self-awareness is uncomfortable for ADHDers – it “might bring up a lot of shame and guilt”. It's understandable – we often feel like we should be better, and when we aren't, it stings.Remember, though: the gap isn't your fault, it's the ADHD wiring. Educational research shows that behaviors we label as “misbehavior” (like missing deadlines or rushing through work) are actually symptoms of impaired time-processing in ADHD. The good news is, once we understand this gap, we can start bridging it with communication and strategies (more on that next). For now, know that you're not alone in feeling misunderstood, and it doesn't mean something is wrong with you. Your brain is doing its best with the tools it's given.ADSPractical Strategies: Building Self-Trust and AwarenessOkay, let's get practical. How do we strengthen that elusive self-awareness muscle and learn to trust our ADHD brains? We'll tackle this in two parts: tips for teens and tips for adults. (If you're a teen, skip to the teen section; if you're an adult, flip to the adult section.)For Teens with ADHDAs a teenager, life is hectic for anyone, and ADHD adds its own roller coaster. Many of you might feel like nobody gets how chaotic it is. Here are some tips:Keep a daily “self-check” routine. Set a reminder on your phone or watch. Twice a day (maybe mid-school and after school), take a minute: How am I feeling right now? What have I been doing? Even just a quick note (writing, texting to yourself, or voice memo) can anchor you to the present. One idea: use emojis in your calendar to rate your mood or energy. This builds metacognition. For example, put a
Today we're tackling a topic that's near and dear to my heart—and absolutely essential for anyone interested in healthspan: sleep.

In this episode, I'm diving into the book Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown—aka the book my podcast guest, Rick Yarosh (last week's episode) recommended and the book I wish I'd read before I burned out the first time. If you feel like your life and career are one giant scribble of overcommitment, guilt, and busyness, this one's for you. We'll talk about how to get clear on what really matters, how to stop saying yes out of obligation, and why having a choice changes everything.I'll share the top pearls from the book—like how to create a zero-based life budget, how the sunk cost fallacy keeps us stuck, and why your “meh” obligations might be crowding out your joy. This isn't about becoming lazy or dropping all your responsibilities—it's about reclaiming your time, energy, and sanity. If you've ever felt trapped by your job, your schedule, or your own people-pleasing habits, this episode will help you cut through the chaos and start choosing your life again.CONNECT WITH HOPE:BOOK:Healing Clinician Burnout, How to Revive Your Life and Career (available in ebook and paperback)CONNECT/COACHING:Hope's Website: www.coachhopecook.comHope's IG @coachhopecookHope's FB @hopeallencookHope's LinkedIn: hope-cook-56041283/Hope's YouTube @coachhopecookEmail: hope.cook@gmail.comLove y'all, and remember: There's always hope!

On this mind-expanding episode, we're joined by Steelo Free and Dot420 from the Outside the Minds Podcast to explore how conspiracy, psychedelics, spirituality, and the paranormal are all unified by the ancient Hermetic Principle of Mentalism—the idea that all is mind. We dive into the core thesis that reality is not material, but a projection of divine consciousness, with each of us as fractal expressions of that Source. Drawing connections between the Bach Saga and the Book of Genesis, merging timelines, and the symbolic nature of ancient myths, we reveal how the fall of human consciousness is encoded across global traditions. From the Ankh and the Cross to the Star of David and simulation theory, we uncover how esoteric symbols, psychedelic experiences, and sacred texts all point toward the same truth: reality is mental, multidimensional, and designed to awaken us back to Oneness.

EPISODE 5: The Stages of GriefPodcast: Dying Laughing with Jessimae Peluso In this episode, I'm diving into the five stages of grief or as I like to call them, the emotional group chat from hell. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance sound great on paper... but in real life? They're messy, unpredictable, and rarely show up in order. I'm sharing how each stage actually unfolded for me, with stories pulled from my Grief Survival Guide mini-series on Sharp Tongue, plus a fresh take on what it really means to “process” loss. I also unpack the difference between the classic five stages and the newer seven-stage model, and explain why grief doesn't follow a rulebook it follows you, sometimes in sweatpants. Whether you're deep in denial or mad at a bird (been there), this episode is here to help you feel seen, heard, and hopefully a little less alone. Thanks for supporting this show and this beautiful, messy grief community. Your support means I get to keep laughing through the sad stuff and help you do the same.

When we first rolled out our mats, we had no idea what we were getting into. From awkward fumbles to unexpected breakthroughs, Natalie and Adrienne spill the top 10 things we wish someone had told us when we started Yoga.We're talking about the myths we believed, the pressure we put on ourselves, and the surprising lessons that unfolded—like how blocks are actually your best friend, why your breath is more important than your backbend, and how touching your toes is not the goal (but falling in forward fold could happen! ).Whether you're new to Yoga or a seasoned teacher, you'll laugh, nod, and maybe cringe along with us. Because Yoga isn't just about poses—it's about progress, presence, and learning to be okay with farting in class.Unroll your mat, hit play, and let's get real. Send us a textWanna be on the show?

Together, we explore what it means to recognise when you're stuck, how burnout often signals it's time for change, and how to start dreaming again—on your terms.Aneta offers grounded insight on overcoming fear, reconnecting with your inner self, and how small, consistent steps—like sleep, breathwork, and acts of service—can guide you back to your truth. If you've been craving more meaning, energy, or courage in your life, this conversation is your gentle nudge forward.SegmentsIntroduction to TransformationRecognising Stuckness and the Journey to FreedomDreaming Again: The Path to AuthenticitySpirituality and Personal Connection to the DivineBreathwork: A Bridge to the SpiritualPractising Courage and Overcoming FearDaily Breathwork Practices for ConnectionFinal Thoughts on Burnout and Reconnecting with DreamsAneta's BioAneta Ardelian Kuzma is a former corporate leader turned transformational coach who helps high-achievers get unstuck, rediscover their purpose, and build lives rooted in passion, wellness, and peace.

An episode from The Holistic Navigator. This is not to diagnosis or treat any disease/illness. Consult your physician before taking supplements or medications OR before you stop taking medications. This is for entertainment/informational purposes only! Breathe in. Breathe out. Have you ever paid attention to what really happens as your body gathers oxygen? Does your chest puff out? Do your shoulders rise? If so, there's a chance that your breathing technique could use some correction. Deep breathing from the diaphragm is the way to go and you might be surprised at the many health benefits it can have. On this week's episode Ed discusses a particular breathing method that may help with a plethora of health problems. The Buteyko Breathing Method was invented by Russian medical scientist Konstantin Buteyko in the 1950's, but is gaining a good bit of traction in today's modern culture. With a little training and discipline, you can integrate this into your own life and see the results so many others have! Some Topics We Discussed: What is Buteyko breathing? (2:43) What makes this technique different from other breathing techniques? (6:52) Why does Ed tape his mouth shut when he sleeps? (9:27) Key Takeaways From This Episode: Oxygen is good but it has a downside. (5:10) Figure out if you are a nose or a mouth breather. (6:59) Your nose is your best air filter. (8:24) What is horizontal breathing?

What if burnout isn't a breaking point, but an invitation to slow down, tune in, and hear the intuition you have been trying to say all along?Summary: When we're deep in burnout, even the simplest decisions can feel overwhelming. This episode of The Science of Happiness explores the difference between urgency and intuition, and what it takes to rebuild trust in your inner knowing. It's a conversation about slowing down, listening inward, and finding clarity on the other side of exhaustion.How To Do This Practice: Pause the noise: Set aside 5–10 minutes without screens, music, or conversation. Let yourself settle into stillness, even if it feels uncomfortable at first. Feel your body: Bring your attention inward. Notice physical sensations—tightness in your chest, a flutter in your gut, warmth in your hands—without trying to change them. Breathe and soften: Take a few slow, gentle breaths. With each exhale, invite your body to soften and release any tension. Ask a simple question: Bring to mind something you're unsure about. Ask yourself softly, “What do I really know about this?” or “What feels true right now?” Notice what arises: Pay attention to the first felt sense—not the loudest thought, but the quiet feeling underneath. It might show up as a word, image, emotion, or subtle pull in the body. Close with trust: You don't need a final answer. Just acknowledge what you noticed, thank yourself for listening, and carry that quiet knowing with you as you move forward.
