概要

Is change something to fear — or something to embrace?

In this fascinating episode of Strategies for Living, Dr. David McMillian and psychotherapist Lauren Leon McMillian welcome award-winning author and life strategist Oren Harman to explore the profound science and metaphor of metamorphosis.

Drawing from his new book Metamorphosis, Harman reveals how three-quarters of animal species undergo dramatic transformation — from caterpillars dissolving into butterflies to axolotls regenerating limbs and even parts of their brains. But this conversation goes far beyond biology.

Together, we explore:

  • How metamorphosis shapes identity and memory
  • Whether butterflies remember being caterpillars
  • What neuroscience teaches us about adolescent brain development
  • The evolutionary “cost” of transformation
  • The difference between narrative and episodic identity
  • Why change feels so difficult — and how to embrace it

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and wondered, “Am I still the same person I used to be?” — this episode is for you.

Transformation is not the end of who you are. It may be the return to your truest self.
