Episode 95 - An Interview with Josie Wratten, Congenital Anosmic

The Smell Podcast

This week, join me in listening to an interview with Josie Wratten. Josie is originally from Yorkshire, England and has been in the US for about 20 years. She worked as an architectural lighting designer for the majority of her career and now works in voice acting and as a podcast host for the show called “Your Lighting Lady”. Josie has congenital anosmia due to Kallmann’s Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder. The majority of those with Kallmann’s Syndrome are male so being female with the condition is even more rare.

We discuss how she was finally diagnosed in college, how she figured out she didn’t have a sense of smell, and much more.
