✨ Episode Description:In science, waiting is part of the process—incubation times, culture growth, reaction cycles, and test results. But outside the lab, waiting shows up too: waiting for an acceptance letter, a diagnosis, a breakthrough, a yes, or even a sign that you're headed in the right direction.In this episode of Lipstick on Labcoats, Ashlei Lewis explores the emotional and spiritual experience of waiting—what it teaches us, how it shapes us, and why the pause is just as important as the discovery. Drawing from psychology, neurotechnology, and real lab stories, Ashlei connects the scientific discipline of “trusting the process” with the very human struggle of patience, uncertainty, and faith.Listeners will reflect on:The neuroscience of anticipationWhy waiting can heighten clarity and creativityHow delayed results in the lab mirror delayed answers in lifeStrategies to stay grounded during periods of uncertaintyThe hidden growth that happens in the waiting room—both literal and metaphoricalThis episode blends storytelling, science, and soulful insight to remind you that incubation isn't inactivity…it's transformation.✨ Optional Opening Script (if you want one):"Welcome back to Lipstick on Labcoats, the show where science meets soul. Today's episode is for anyone in a season of waiting. Waiting on lab results, waiting on life to make sense, waiting on a dream to sprout. In the lab, we know that some reactions can't be rushed—too soon, and the experiment fails. Too impatient, and you miss the moment of change. Life is strangely similar.""So let's talk about what's happening beneath the surface while you wait—and why the quiet, unseen parts of the process are often the most powerful."
