Welcome to the Strong Roots Podcast. This week, I am joined by Dermot Dorgan of 'Independent Covid Action Network', which is available at: www.ican2021.ie

Having experienced mental health difficulties from a young age, and subsequently learning to cope with his emotions, Dermot found himself really struggling during the Corona Virus lock downs. Many questions surfaced for him, and he went in search of answers that weren't being made available, because of an absence of communication. His approach to understanding something is communication, plain & simple.

Through his project, he wants to bring all parties to the table, so they can have a reasonable discourse with the aim of providing solutions . Up to now, the Governments of the World have dismissed anyone that has challenged their narrative, without room for debate. In my opinion, this uncertainty contributes to many peoples' fear.

Dermot and myself are on different pages in relation to what's going on in the World. Yet, we manage to have a discussion that is harmonious & respectful. A difference of opinion is OK, or at least it should be; however, in our modern World, a difference of opinion seems to cause a complete collapse in communication, in many instances.

Lets start communicating, and demanding answers from those that are in power.

Enjoy!
