#300 - Truth in Fiction: How Dr. Debra Blaine, MD Uses Fiction Writing to Bring Awareness to Societal Issues

Description: Welcome to the podcast, where we explore the truths hidden beneath the surface of our daily lives. Join Debra, a seasoned physician, and bestselling author, as she shares her insights on the challenges doctors face in providing good patient care, the wave of dysfunction that is fracturing our communities, and the influence of media and corporations on our professional lives.

In this episode, we delve into "The Undue Influences we unconsciously jockey in our daily lives," and how they impact our thoughts, beliefs, and opinions. Debra explains how the standard business model cannot be applied to human life and the frustrations of physicians who are losing the doctor-patient bond.

We also ask the thought-provoking question, "Are your thoughts really your own?" and explore why it is so hard to let in new ideas and be tolerant of other's differences. Debra reveals who benefits from discouraging people from evaluating information for themselves, from political platforms to groceries.

Debra shares her expertise on the difficulty in discerning the truth in a world filled with fake news. She also talks about why there seems to be no middle ground anymore and why we must accept all of our parties' decisions on every issue.

We delve into the loss of the doctor-patient relationship and why so many physician practices are selling out to corporate entities. Debra also addresses the frustration of patients who feel their doctors no longer have the time to listen to them.

We explore whether the standard American business model is appropriate for healthcare and why patients are asked to fill out customer satisfaction surveys. Finally, we discuss why Debra chooses to write about important societal issues as fiction and how Truth in Fiction can gently guide us towards a more harmonious society.

Tune in to the podcast to gain a deeper understanding of the issues that impact our lives and to learn how to wade through the morass of information to discover the truth via fiction storytelling.
