#92: In this episode, Frauke sits down with Podcaster and Smell and Taste Association of North America President Katie Boateng to discuss how to connect with smells more to enrich daily life experiences when you've lost your sense of smell. Katie shares how she lost her sense of smell and why that's changed her understanding and memory of everyday smells. Frauke explains cross-modal sensory associations and then she and Katie begin a dialogue about everyday activities that Katie wants to experience more fully. These include:

• Taking a shower (14:45)
• Rose bushes (28:12)
• Eating strawberries (34:43)
• Cutting an orange (38:48)
• Brewing a cup of coffee (43:45)
• Being sweaty on a hot day (48:34)
• Baking cookies and cakes (55:42)
• Frying bacon (1:02:42)
• Being at the ocean/seaside (1:06:35)

Frauke also helps Katie figure out the best way to pick a perfume and scented deodorant. Whether you can smell or not, we hope this conversation will give you tools and inspiration to enrich your everyday experiences using the senses you have.
