#215 - Stacy

Stacy is an accomplished brand and creative strategist whose journey with misophonia began long before the condition even had a name. Stacy takes us through her early experiences participating in a college study on sound sensitivity back in the 1980s, her lifelong struggle with certain trigger sounds—especially from her mother—and how these experiences shaped her personal and professional life. Stacy reflects on the complex interplay between her upbringing, her father’s bipolar disorder, and her own recovery from food addiction. We dive into how misophonia has affected her relationships, from family dynamics to workplace challenges, and how she’s navigated those spaces while maintaining a successful career. It’s a deeply personal, thoughtful conversation about coping, connection, and the ongoing need for understanding and research. -----Web: https://misophoniapodcast.comBe a guest! https://misophoniapodcast.com/be-a-guestSupport the podcast at https://misophonia.shopEmail: [email protected] me any feedback!
