About this episode
<p>In an encore of one of our top episodes ever, Dr. Zoffness is back to chat about her brand new book, <a href="https://www.zoffness.com/books/tmwihs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>Tell Me Where It Hurts</i></a>.</p> <p>PAIN. What is it? Where does it come from? And how can we hurt less? Which hurts more, a kidney stone or heartache? Why does chronic pain persist? Can we turn down our pain dials? To answer these huge questions, pain psychologist Dr. Rachel Zoffness enthusiastically explains the brain, pain and how to retrain it. She is an unabashed neuronerd and a ray of hope in a field that is misunderstood, neglected and under-explained. A true life-changer of a person. </p> <p>Follow Dr. Rachel Zoffness on <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/drzoffness.bsky.social" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bluesky</a> and <a href="https://instagram.com/TheRealDocZoff" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a></p> <p>Her new book Tell Me Where It Hurts on <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/tell-me-where-it-hurts-the-new-science-of-pain-and-how-to-heal-dr-rachel-zoffness/8a3fe3d074a13b5d?ean=9781538758144&next=t&next=t" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bookshop.org</a> and <a href="https://us.amazon.com/Tell-Me-Where-Hurts-Science/dp/1538758148/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Amazon</a></p> <p>Her website, which has a resource page with a ton of free info: <a href="http://zoffness.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">zoffness.com</a></p> <p>A donation was made to <a href="https://www.thetrevorproject.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Trevor Project</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies-by-topic" rel="noopener noreferrer">400+ Ologies episodes sorted by topic</a></p> <p><a href="https://pod.link/1746567248" rel="noopener noreferrer">Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes</a></p> <p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-sponsors" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sponsors of Ologies</a></p> <p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-extras" rel="noopener noreferrer">Transcripts and bleeped episodes</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/ologies" rel="noopener noreferrer">Become a patron of Ologies</a> for as little as a buck a month</p> <p><a href="https://www.ologiesmerch.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">OlogiesMerch.com</a> has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!</p> <p>Follow Ologies on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ologies" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ologies.bsky.social" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bluesky</a></p> <p>Follow Alie Ward on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alieward" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@alie_ologies" rel="noopener noreferrer">TikTok</a></p> <p>Sound editing by Jarrett Sleeper of MindJam Media & Steven Ray Morris & Mercedes Maitland of <a href="http://maitlandaudio.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Maitland Audio Productions</a> & <a href="https://www.jecmusic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jake Chaffee</a></p> <p>Managing Director: Susan Hale</p> <p>Scheduling Producer: Noel Dilworth</p> <p>Transcripts by Aveline Malek and Emily White of <a href="https://www.thewordary.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Wordary</a></p> <p>Website by <a href="https://www.kellyrdwyer.com/photo" rel="noopener noreferrer">Kelly R.
