In today's episode, we are going to discuss what we believe. When it comes to Chiropractic Philosophy, our own personal Worldview might conflict or contradict the Chiropractic Philosophy. What's more, is it possible that Chiropractic has its own Worldview? If our Chiropractic philosophy does not fit into a cohesive worldview, that contradiction will forever make it difficult for us to teach our patients to share our Chiropractic Philosophy.

History is a powerful tool for learning from other people's experiences and even their mistakes.

Today's episode is based on one of my favorite lessons that I learned from John Maxwell. The story of Lewis & Clark gives us a template for understanding how we can lead ourselves and others where we have never gone before. For most Chiropractors, this is essential knowledge. Most of us will be forced, during our career, to go where we haven't gone before and to take others with us. Here we have a template for how to do that.

In todays episode, we will be talking about some basic scientific principles that can be exercised in everyday practice. How we think about what we do will help to frame it so we get the most benefit from it. Science isn't just something that is out there, but it is something that must be in us, rooted into our very thinking about what we do and why we do it.

In today's episode, we are talking with Dr Randal Johnson. Dr Johnson was fortunate enough to experience the Monterey Bay Clinical Studies Society, so he had a front row seat to what would eventually grow to become the Gonstead Clinical Studies Society. Those early days give some insight into the mission and purpose behind the GCSS. Today, Dr Johnson is heavily involved in Chiropractic Missions around the world. Our conversation today will cover both topics.
