Will You 'Follow The Science' Next Time?
In this episode, Anne Corbin explores the mind-body-spirit connection, reflects on global health threats including COVID-19, and critically examines "scientism" in pandemic responses. She gives an overview of vaccine development, shares personal vaccine experiences, and discusses societal "isms". The episode concludes with an analysis of the scientific method's application during the pandemic.
Scientism is a new, derogatory term for the blind, unquestioning following of scientific conclusions. Science is the observance of a phenomenon, the collection of data and the creation of a hypothesis or theory by inductive reasoning and testing of that hypothesis by rigorous experimentation and demonstration to prove the conclusion. Anne looks back at the Covid crisis and asks, bearing in mind the fourth step of the scientific method was blatantly ignored during the vaccine production stage, how will we ever trust the scientific community ever again?
BEST MOMENTS
‘Ease is a greater threat to progress than hardship is. It’s a threat to safety as well, for people who don’t see danger coming are the ones who don’t change their behavior.’
‘Science and scientists used to command respect. Will they ever regain it?’
‘Vaccination was held up to be the Holy Grail, the only possible answer that could rescue everyone from this horrible situation.’
‘The man reminded me of a fast talking car salesman and I just let him talk. But then the Doctor confirmed everything he said and went on to sing the praises of the stuffed shirts that we were all so familiar with from the daily government covid briefings.’
‘And now ‘follow the science’ as a phrase has forever been discredited because we were told to follow untested theories, hypotheses and ideas.’

ABOUT THE HOST
Anne originally trained as a math and science teacher but then chose to qualify as an accountant and worked in business for 12 years. Having recognised that there was more to life than a successful career – specifically working long hours to make money for other people at the expense of her own health – she quit the rat race and returned to her first love: teaching, but on a part-time basis. Fascinated by psychology, philosophy and theology, she is now a successful trainer, speaker and author, who enjoys sharing her passion, purpose and knowledge with a growing audience.
