The Science of Hedonism with Zoe Cormier (Author/Scientist)

The book, Sex, Drugs & Rock & Roll – The Science of Hedonism and Hedonism of Science by Zoe Cormier, explores how hedonistic impulses inform our highest pursuits, and how the renegades of science have illuminated the secrets of our deepest impulses. I came across Zoe when I was exploring my happy hormones at Secret Garden Party – she used to run events celebrating scientific discovery at music festivals. This book blew my mind, especially the section on drugs that discusses how our relationship with narcotics helps us to identify many of our most powerful neurotransmitters such as dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins. She is a huge inspiration of mine, which is why I asked her to kick off our podcast series.
