Covid: Mass Formation and Loss of Critical Thinking with Dr. M. Nathaniel Mead & Dave Wayne Ep. 393

Today I’m joined again by Dr. M. Nathaniel Mead and Dave Wayne as we continue the conversation Dr. Mead and I began in Ep. 391 Covid: Find out What REALLY Happened on The Covid Index. In this conversation, we dive into the ways censorship, corporate influence, and technological manipulation have distorted evidence-based medicine, suppressed free speech, and accelerated societal fragmentation. We also discuss the profound impact of mass formation and psychological manipulation during COVID — from the suppression of dissenting voices to the rapid artificialization of lifestyles, food, and even human identity. We break down:* The decline of genuine science and the rise of scientism during the pandemic* The dangers of centralized media, censorship, and reliance on AI for knowledge* How artificial environments, chemical exposure, and disconnection from nature are subtly rewiring human biology and psychology* The importance of reclaiming personal autonomy, free speech, and practices like mindfulness* Practical steps to awaken critical thinking and restore connection to natural and spiritual truthsWhy does all this matter? Because the erosion of free speech, personal sovereignty, and authentic science isn't just about politics—it's about the very fabric of human liberty. If we don’t wake up now, we risk losing our capacity to discern truth and to live freely in a rapidly transforming world.Thank you for joining us!To learn more about about Dr. M.

We are continuing to discuss what real change looks like in 2026. We start off in the middle of a Midwest snowstorm, which takes out Karin’s power mid-recording, but Elliott and Tim pick up the conversation and continue to discuss how Elliott’s clients have embraced his A.C.E. acronyms from Ep. 390.The conversation leads into what do we do when life happens? How do we stay present and grounded in the midst of chaos? How can we reframe difficult circumstances? How do we battle the internal dialogue we can all find ourselves struggling with? These patterns, beliefs, and habits that are ingrained into us. What does real transformation look like?Elliott gives practical application that gives us a framework for how to face these challenges and keep moving us forward! This is the time of the year when New Year’s Resolutions start to drop off. May this conversation help give you the tools and belief to keep going! You can take charge of your thoughts and take charge of your life in 2026!   Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson

Last November, I attended the Children's Health Defense Annual Conference in Austin, and I was able to connect with so many medical freedom activists and dissidents and so many people who are still concerned about COVID. Yes, even 6 years later - we need answers!At the conference, I got connected with The Covid Index, founded by researcher M. Nathaniel Mead, MSc, PhD.Since the late 1990s, Dr. Mead has authored over 55 peer-reviewed scientific papers, contributed to numerous books, served as an editor for two peer-reviewed scientific journals, and worked as an integrative-medicine research consultant. Mead is also the lead author on several peer-reviewed papers on the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines, co-authored with Drs. Peter McCullough, Stephanie Seneff, Jessica Rose, Paul Marik, William Makis, and other notable scientists.He joins me on the program today to discuss where we are today and the work that The Covid Index is doing to grow and build an expansive dictionary of evidence to the many falsehoods that were pushed by officials and media outlets alike during the COVID-19 experience.   To learn more about The Covid Index please visit covidindex.science Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson

Happy New Year!As we move into 2026, it’s that time of year where many of us take time to pause, reflect, and set goals for the upcoming year. Transformation is something that takes time. It’s change that comes from the inside out. But where do we start? At times, it can feel daunting and overwhelming to even know where to begin. So today, we want to discuss various ways we can grow personally, spiritually, and within our relationships.  What role does reflection play in setting goals for the new year?How do we build habits when our days already feel too full?What does it mean to be intentional in 2026?How do all of these areas impact not only ourselves but the relationships around us?Take charge of your new year and build habits, routines, and systems that will last! We pray that no matter how 2026 finds you, this year would be one of transformation for you. Thank you for listening. Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson

Estranged. Cut off. Disengaged.Whatever you want to call it—it’s trending! Going “no contact” has become so ubiquitous Oprah covered it in a recent podcast episode, Mel Robbins just wrote a NY Times article about it, and it’s the subject of several books and thousands of TikToks.What’s going on? Why are so many adult children cutting off their parents and families?Is Going No Contact a difficult, yet imperative, decision to protect oneself from a toxic family?Or, does it reflect an unwillingness to navigate the messiness of adult family relationships, because, of course, it’s way easier to solely interact with likeminded friends. Is it self care or self sabotage?Elliott and I delve into the myriad elements surrounding this phenomenon, including:1️⃣The increase of family disengagement Elliott has witnessed in his clinical practice. 2️⃣The Going No Contact debate—does it facilitate or impede our emotional development and maturity?3️⃣How “self-help culture” has introduced therapeutic terms into our everyday lexicon—and the ramifications therein.4️⃣Expanding definitions of concepts such as “toxic,” “narcissist,” and “gaslighting.”5️⃣The grief inherent to estranged families. 6️⃣The role of social media in fueling this trend.7️⃣Suggestions for reunification—should children decide they’d like to. According to a study cited on Oprah’s podcast, 30% of Americans have a family member who has disengaged. So, it’s likely this impacts you or someone you love. If you know someone who “Won’t Be Home For Christmas,” this conversation is for you!Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson

I connected with React 19 at the Children’s Health Defense Conference in Austin earlier this month. I wanted to invite some of its members to share their stories of COVID shot injuries. To this day, most of the public is unaware of the horrific adverse events many people experienced when doing the “right thing” by taking the “vaccine” during COVID.Doctors ignored their conditions or claimed they were psychosomatic. Insurance companies often refused to cover their treatments, surgeries, and medications. Some victims’ lives have been forever altered. They’ve gone from healthy and vibrant to bedridden and wheelchair bound. Some have died. Will anyone acknowledge them? Acknowledge their suffering? Acknowledge they tried to do their part to stop the spread of the virus—only to endure lifelong suffering?Will they ever be heard?React 19’s mission is to support these victims and provide a platform through which they can share their story. At Love & Life we see them; we hear them; we walk arm and arm with them. They are not alone. We will continue to speak out and validate the trauma they’ve endured. Chris Pigott joins me today to share his story. Thank you for listening and bearing witness.Chris PigottX | x.com/pigott24React19React19 is a science-based non-profit offering financial, physical, and emotional support for those suffering from long-term Covid-19 vaccine adverse events globally.
