The Things Nobody Explains.

by Marieme Seck

New episode every Tuesday.The Things Nobody Explains looks at the questions we all live with and rarely get a proper answer to. Anxiety and overthinking. Burnout and the body that won't calm down. Relationships, memory, time, and the invisible things we carry without naming them. Each episode takes one question, looks at what the research actually says, and explains it in plain words. Ten to twenty minutes, nothing dressed up, and always something you can use. Website : https://mariemeseck.comAudibooks : https://open.spotify.com/author/0rbbvAN9HMNQ9i7edJOwJx

Almost everyone does it, and most people assume they're the only one. In this episode: what happened when researchers sent students into a...

  5. Why Time Speeds Up as You Get Older ?

    The summer you were ten felt like it lasted forever. Last year went by in about four weeks. Somewhere between the two, time started moving faster, and nobody ever explained why.
