Welcome back to another episode of Informed Dissent, where we go beyond the headlines to bring you the stories behind the scenes! In this exclusive preview, we're offering you a sneak peek into the latest developments and thought-provoking discussions happening within our community. We believe this statement to be true:"New levels new devils." Listen to Jeff as he sheds light on the challenges we face:"So as you're trying to accomplish something, there's more barriers that get in the way. And especially what we're doing is not just some random informational podcast, we really are exposing and talking about holistic health and bringing forward a new way of thinking that most people aren't used to. And a lot of the establishment and healthcare really don't want to be heard because we're breaking a lot of those molds.” And hear Mark as he shares his insights about the hard truth of reality in 2024:"We didn't have people getting heart attacks and strokes in their 20s and 30s who were who were fit, seemingly fit. That's all happening now due to a combination of poor education, bad food, lack of good movement and exercise, high stress, as you pointed out, and these horrible interventions from drugs and fake vaccines and unnecessary surgeries that are making people sicker than ever."Stay tuned for more enlightening conversations and eye-opening revelations.

Here we go again! Episode #146 of Informed Dissent with your hosts Dr. Mark McDonald and Dr. Jeff Barke! This week we hear from Dr. Lucas Klein. He is a Psychologist, Psychoanalyst, Forensic Expert, and Executive Consultant. His philosophy states, “I believe people need to feel safe enough to venture forward in life in a way where they can do things that help them move past old ways of being that have been the cause of so much pain. That requisite safety is known through a relationship with someone else, or is torn down by the same. Relationships are the organizers of the mind, which is why we are so moved and affected by the so called past. Our pasts are of course playing out in real time between ourselves and others as we demonstrate to and with others how we have been shaped by being and time. Our unconscious organizing principles that were fashioned to help us understand emotional experience were learned in early development in order to protect us from disconnection, and symptoms and problems are often a reflection of unconscious efforts to feel cohesive as a self and to remain connected to loved ones.”To learn more about Dr. Klein or to schedule a consultation with him, visithttps://www.drkleinpsychology.com/For more information about the Informed Dissent Media show, to book an interview, or learn how you can become a sponsor, click here: https://linktr.ee/informeddissentmediaEmail us directly at media@informeddissentmedia.comSupport the Show.For more Informed Dissent visit our website at Informed Dissent Media Follow us on Social media @InformedDissentMedia
