Join me, Carmen, on Science Savvy as we dive into the mysteries of consciousness and self-awareness! In this episode, I’ll explore what it really means to be conscious, how self-awareness shapes our identity and self-esteem, and why some of these questions have puzzled scientists and philosophers for centuries. From Descartes' "I think, therefore I am" to modern neuroscience and theories like the "Astonishing Hypothesis," we’ll examine how genetics, brain chemistry, and life experiences impact our sense of self.
Whether you’re curious about the science behind identity or the deeper philosophical questions about why we experience life as we do, this episode has something for you. Let’s get savvy about the brain together!
