Welcome to the podcast! 

In this first episode, we talk about: 

  • This podcast as an experiment in allowing imperfection and expression
  • Experiences and conditioning that can make it hard for us, as scientists or academics, to remember that it's okay to want something different
  • The relationship between fulfillment, flow, happiness (i.e., being more of ourselves) and the impact of our work
  • How to approach the potential overwhelm associated with giving ourselves permission to want something different
  • Viewing permission to step outside of our conditioning and external expectations as a starting point for navigating change
