About this listen

Life begins with a spark—literally. In this electrifying episode of The You Only Podcast, we dive into Frances Ashcroft’s groundbreaking book The Spark of Life, where she reveals the hidden electrical currents that keep every heartbeat, thought, and breath alive. We’ll even explore the mysterious “zinc spark”—the dazzling burst of light released at the very moment life begins, when sperm meets egg.

Frances Ashcroft herself joins us in this episode, sharing her wisdom with a clarity and passion that will leave you rethinking the very power lines running through your body. This isn’t just science—it’s the story of you, your brain, your heart, and the invisible energy that holds everything together.

If you’ve ever wondered what truly makes us alive, or why the tiniest electrical charge can change everything from memory to emotion, this episode is your front-row seat to the awe and wonder of human existence. Tune in, because once you understand the spark that drives life, you’ll never see yourself the same way again.
