The Long Path

It's been an incredible week. Trucks and much more.

Welcome to 2022.

I have been distracted with many things the last few weeks. So partly as a response to that I will be offering weekly updates.

More guests and interviews are coming too.

Thank you for your time and patience.

Jocelyn Kinnear, BScN, RN has been working as a nurse since graduating in 2009, gaining experience in long term care as well as acute care. Jocelyn worked at her local hospital throughout the pandemic, but was fired from her position for not disclosing her vaccine status. She is also a single parent to three young children, which motivated her to stand up against what seems to be unfolding as medical tyranny.

Fallon Wotherspoon is a (former) surgical nurse of 9 years experience in the Okanagan region. Most recently she worked the last 2 years in the COVID unit, until being fired for not complying with the vaccine mandates. This despite having already gotten COVID and being fully recovered.

Her experience includes international nursing and disaster relief nursing. She has worked in Africa and in Haiti post Earthquake in 2010. She was the first student nurse in North America accepted on a first aid mission by any of the popular NGOs, and got to have that eye opening experience at 19 years old.

She's also a mom to two crazy kids under 6 who have been her biggest reason for standing her ground with this mandate and making some noise.

She continues to speak out and support her community and family.

This was the most challenging podcast that I've done by myself. Finding the right words for the topics I explored is a challenge. These topics are so fundamental and so impenetrable simultaneously. It's like trying to control the mist.

How value creates and affects life. What is the most important thing there is? Did culture and value evolve in relationship with martial arts? What exactly are arts of self defense? How can knowledge of combat strengthen peace? And other stuff too.
