From “Nurse of the Year” to Fired for Refusing the Jab: Live Med Free with Dave Wayne, Part 2
Dave Wayne had found his passion and purpose in life. As a psychiatric nurse, he’d gained the respect of both his peers and superiors–so much so, that he won a prestigious award at his hospital!.
Not long after receiving this accolade, Dave was fired.
Why? He declined to take an injection of an experimental product.
But as so often happens in life, our darkest moments propel us in a new direction–one that’s more aligned with our values and better suited to who we’re meant to become!. And, in Dave’s case, his skepticism around Big Pharma had already made him realize a profession grounded in pharmaceutical interventions wouldn’t be a fit for him long term.
Dave now serves as a holistic health coach. He emphasizes the importance of nutrition, lifestyle, and mindset on our emotional well-being as he helps clients “describe” from medications.
Join us to learn how you can thrive free of Pharma!

From Pro Pharma Psychiatric Nurse to Holistic Health Coach! Live Med Free with David Wayne, Part 1 Ep. 298
We started an occasional series a while ago called, “Empowered Evolving” in part, because I saw so much shifting all around us. Beliefs that had once been considered integral to folks with certain philosophical ideology, now seem to be embraced by those on the opposite side of things.
Furthermore, over the last several years, we’ve witnessed the abolition of core American rights I thought we all valued.
Very strange times, indeed.
I called the series, “Empowered Evolving” as a way to remind myself—and anyone else who might have been feeling unsettled, as I’ve felt over the last several years—that evolving IS empowered.
We used to encourage people to question authority and do our own research and think for ourselves and ask for second, third, and fourth opinions. We warned each other to resist tribalism and group-think.
Americans were pioneers, independent minded. We read Thorough’s Civil Disobedience in high school and lived by Shakespeare’s “To thine own self be true”
Naturally, when you live out such principles, you often evolve.
Evolving can feel lonely. You may lose friends, your community, even your identity.
This all happened to today’s guest, former psychiatric nurse turned holistic health coach, Dave Wayne.

COVID Trauma: How to Move Through Post COVID Stress Disorder Ep. 294
Four years after “2 weeks to stop the spread” and I’m still reeling.
They say, “Get over it. Move on! COVID’s done.”
Of course, I’d like to forget about it. But, it doesn’t feel “done” to me. I’m still trying to get my bearings.
Elliott says it’s Post COVID Trauma. We all feel it to some degree. And, we all deal with it differently.
How could we NOT be traumatized? We’d never experienced anything like it!
The world shut down.
We lived in fear.
People died. We couldn’t say goodbye.
Kids stuck at home.
Masks and 6 feet of separation destroyed human connection.
Alpha, Delta, Omicron, what’s next?
From a bat? Lab leak? Who’s telling the truth!?!?
Don’t ask questions. Fauci’s the boss.
NOTHING to be done—just wait for the “vaccine.”
Skeptical of an experimental shot? What are you, a grandma killer?
I could go on and on . . .
If you’re feeling some Post COVID Stress Disorder, please join us for what amounts to a therapy session☺️ Elliott helps me move through the emotional fallout of being a COVID dissident. If you’re still disoriented from the last 4 years, this episode is for you!
