Just Think: The Podcast

You've heard it discussed on the news, in school board meetings, in corporate board meetings, and on college campuses: Critical Race Theory. But did you know that CRT is born out of a broader "Critical Theory" which has been around for generations. In some countries, like France, its premises have largely been rejected for its divisiveness, yet there has been a movement to force its implementation into every facet of American society--from schools and universities to corporations and institutions. Some argue that it is a solution for the disparities in society. Others argue that while it is shrouded in the appearance of good--"equity for all", this also means equality of outcomes regardless of effort, which wreaks of Marxism and socialism. And they argue that instead of eradicating racism, it promotes it. We talk with fellow mother and education activist, Lindy Ford, who took her own deep dive into Critical Theory to understand its origins and premise. And she shares information that EVERY parent needs to know.

This week we chat once again with Steve Kirsch, silicon valley entrepreneur, inventor and former multi-million dollar donor to the Democratic party. When Steve discovered injuries amongst friends who had complied with mandates, his eyes were opened to so much more than the fact that the mandates could be deadly. So in April 2020, Kirsch founded the COVID-19 Early Treatment Fund (CETF) to fund research into off-label treatments for COVID-19 among drugs already having FDA approval for other diseases, donating $1 million himself and also fundraising from others. He recruited what MIT Technology Review called "a powerhouse board" of scientific advisors to develop treatments. Since then, he has worked full-time to bring the truth to light, to work with teams of experts to follow the actual science, and to network to get the truth out to as many people as possible. Listen in as Steve shares some of the latest developments in his search and fight for the truth and against the false narratives.

This week, Amy Kelly, COO of Daily Clout and the Program Director for the Pfizer Documents Analysis Project, oversees the approximately 3,250 volunteers who are reviewing, analyzing, and reporting on the court-ordered, FDA-released Pfizer documents, as well as the approximately 350 volunteer attorneys who are identifying legal actions to be taken based on their findings. Amy and the trio discuss some of their findings, issuing the warnings that so many other people should have issued long ago.

Election season is upon us which means the spin, propaganda, and fear mongering is upon us. We kicked off this episode with a campaign ad which actually made us laugh...and think (hence the crackhead title). We are realizing more and more that if we do not stand up to protect the valued freedoms and institutions in this country that serve us, we are going to lose them. And if we do not recognize the corruption within some of those institutions and hold them accountable, we just might lose each other. We work again this week to bring some of this to light, to point you to resources and information that you can rely on and share, to help you just think about what is really going on and how you can make a difference.

The gaslighting attempts are escalating--the spin, the propaganda, the twisting of the truth to fit a narrative--is so prevalent it is now normalized. It seems that some believe if they say something enough, even if it is false, they can make it true. At the very least, they seem to be able to make it believable to some. And NONE of us are exempt from being impacted by it. It is why now, more than ever, we must work to resist cognitive dissonance, disconnect from any tribalism that contributes to blind trust, ask questions, search for the truth ourselves, JUST THINK, and feel free to speak our minds. This week, we "fact check" the "fact checkers" on some hot topics. Now that election season is at hand, you better believe the attempts to manipulate you with fear and anger will escalate, and you need to be prepared to combat this with clarity and the truth.

Many of us, both within the medical profession and outside of it, have gained tremendous clarity through the realization that we all need to "unlearn" so much of what we have learned about health, nutrition, medicine, prevention, etc. Nurse Practitioner, Lauren Johnson, or "Natural Nurse Momma" as she is known to her more than 200,000 followers on social media, realized while practicing medicine that she needed to unlearn so much of what she had been taught in medical school in order to help her patients truly be healed and healthy. And she realized this after battling her own health conditions and examining her own medications and treatments. In this episode, we will challenge all of us to not be overwhelmed by the realization that you, too, may need to unlearn some things, or to be paralyzed by all the information available, but to instead "just think". What could be at the root of my health concerns? What am I doing that could make my life better or worse? And how can I move forward in making better, more informed choices, one day at a time. Change can be intimidating and overwhelming. We want to encourage you that change can be simple and incremental. And incremental changes can dramatically improve your health and your life.

Maybe you saw it last week? The President of The United States, in an address from Philadelphia broadcast to the entire country, declared, “Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic," Many on both sides of the aisle found his message to be alarming and divisive, but one person in particular set out to kindly, frankly, and eloquently set the record straight about who exactly MAGA Republicans are. And we think you might be surprised, as his explanation and persona absolutely defies the public perception perpetuated by opponents and aided by the mainstream media.Alma Ohene-Apare went viral in his video response to the president which included the assurance, “Mr, President, I am not your enemy.” We were beyond inspired and encouraged, so we had to introduce you all to him and learn more from him. So Just Thinkers, meet Alma—husband, father, immigrant, new citizen, and entrepreneur who is committed to doing his part to “make America great again.”

Join the trio as they chat with Matt Connor, a New York City firefighter who is a trustee with the National Coalition of Frontline Workers, an organization whose goal is "to provide unparalleled, compassionate representation for every frontline worker in the United States" and whose focus is on "affecting immediate change, anchoring our work on protecting human rights and preserving the freedom of individual choice". In 2020, Matt and his colleagues were hailed the "heroes of the pandemic", going to work to serve the American people and risking exposure when so little was known about the disease at the time. Fast forward to last year, if these "heroes" did not comply with mandates, they were demonized and fired. Matt's story is representative of thousands of others, and their stories MUST be told and shared and the wrongs against them rectified.

The trio has been busy "interviewing the experts", but this week, they were beyond ready to talk about all.the.things. From the CDC and Fauci announcements to partisan politics to polling and upcoming elections to racism to the banning of "yes ma'am and no sir" on college campuses, to more incriminating data in the Pfizer data that is only available because a federal judge forced them to release it ...the ladies invite you into their conversation this week and to--most importantly-- search for the truth, never blindly trust, and to just think for yourselves.

What's the deal with 5G? It sure is convenient, efficient, dare we say...fascinating? But is it SAFE? We are INUNDATED with it, so surely someone is making sure we aren't being harmed by it. Right? When we learned that the FCC lost a lawsuit in which it was revealed that the very agency that is supposed to regulate these things was found guilty of NOT protecting us...we immediately looked to the companies that benefit from 5G. And...of course...we found lobbyists and government and big tech and corporations.....doing what they apparently do, to our detriment. So we reached out to an expert on 5G, Cece Doucette, Education Services Director with the international non-profit Wireless Education, to learn, to separate fact from fiction, and to find the practical things we ALL can do to protect ourselves. Listen in, follow, and share!
