At 39, she found an explanation: she is faceblind. She talks with Anita about how that discovery sent her down a journalistic rabbit hole that led her to rewrite a lot of her past and come to a fundamentally new understanding of her brain. Plus, her husband Steve joins the conversation to talk about how Sadie’s new diagnoses — including having a severely deficient autobiographical memory — shape their life together. Meet the guests: - Sadie Dingfelder , science journalist and author of \" Do I Know You? A Faceblind Reporter’s Journey into the Science of Sight, Memory and Imagination \" - Steven Hay , engineer and Sadie's husband Read the transcript | Review the podcast on your preferred platform Follow Embodied on Instagram Leave a message for Embodied","meta_description":"Sadie Dingfelder spent decades not recognizing people who knew her and not knowing why.
