Doro and Tricia welcome ethics professor Aine Donovan to Health Gig, where she shares her insights from years of teaching. She discusses the shift in ethics education from absolute notions of right and wrong to more relativistic frameworks, noting the challenges posed by social media’s influence on values and the struggle to define a personal moral compass. Donovan emphasizes the importance of grounding students in core ethical principles and personal values, which shape their decisions in both personal and professional spheres.
She also addresses the growing epidemic of loneliness, highlighting the crucial role of genuine human connections in fostering happiness and well-being. In an age where social media often replaces real interaction, Donovan stresses that addressing loneliness requires more than just social media engagement; it involves fostering real, human connections—whether through simple acts of kindness or deeper, meaningful friendships. Donovan leaves listeners with the notion that values education is essential to fostering a more empathetic and thoughtful society.
