Damaris Nightingale, an entrepreneur, researcher, and speaker with over 30 years of experience leading enterprise technology initiatives, has launched a new podcast titled "My Many Selves." The podcast aims to explore consciousness, psychology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, spirituality, olfactory therapy, health, and the human experience, offering a space where listeners can engage with complex topics without having to choose between scientific inquiry and a sense of wonder.
At the heart of "My Many Selves" is Nightingale's original framework for understanding the universal selves that people experience throughout life: the physical self, sexual self, emotional self, mental self, and spiritual self. The podcast also delves into the archetypes through which these selves are expressed in relationships, purpose, identity, creativity, and everyday decision-making. Together, these elements form a practical roadmap for understanding the many dimensions of the human experience and the deeper consciousness that connects them.
Nightingale explained the inspiration behind the podcast, noting that her career taught her to value systems, logic, and evidence, but she came to realize that science is one extraordinary way of knowing—but not the only one. "What changed was the realization that science is one extraordinary way of knowing, but it may not be the only one," she said. The podcast was born from her observation that people often live as though they are only one fixed identity, while in reality, they experience themselves differently depending on their emotions, relationships, roles, environments, and depth of consciousness.
"Most of us live as though we are only one person, yet we experience ourselves very differently depending on the moment and our level of awareness," Nightingale said. "My goal has never been to replace science, but to expand the conversation."
Unlike podcasts that separate psychology, health, technology, spirituality, and neuroscience into isolated categories, "My Many Selves" examines how these disciplines interact in daily life. Episodes will explore topics including emotional regulation, decision-making, intuition, synchronicity, dreams, expanded states of consciousness, artificial intelligence, life after death, and the evolving relationship between intelligence and consciousness. Each episode draws from a blend of disciplines and lived experience, including psychology and neuroscience, artificial intelligence and technology, philosophy and contemplative traditions, olfactory therapy and health, spirituality and consciousness studies, and personal transformation.
The podcast is designed to serve as a safe and thoughtful space for conversations that many people hesitate to have publicly. Rather than promoting simple belief or skepticism, it encourages listeners to explore complex questions with openness, critical thinking, and respect. By integrating scientific and spiritual perspectives, "My Many Selves" offers a unique approach to self-awareness and personal transformation, potentially impacting how individuals understand their own identities and the nature of consciousness.
