There’s no instruction manual for this device in our head. But there are patterns.
My name is Dorian. I’m a brain scientist. I’ve spent fifteen years—military, clinical contexts, Cambridge PhD, now Associate Professor at Sandhurst—trying to understand why we live such peculiarly turbulent lives. The habits of thought, feeling, and action that shape us. Where they come from, how they work, whether they’re worth keeping.
The articles at my btrmt. are me working things out. The podcast is me telling you what I found.
One pattern per episode. No jargon. Just what I think you should know about how we tick—and what you might do about it.
Subscribe, and let’s figure this out together.
