🎧 Heart of Care
A podcast by AMCU Media
Heart of Care is a storytelling and conversation podcast that explores the lived realities behind Australia’s health, welfare, and social systems — through the eyes of those navigating them every day.
Hosted by John from AMCU Media, each episode shares heartfelt stories, policy insights, and personal reflections on what it truly means to care — whether as a healthcare worker, a parent, a patient, or a citizen.
From overworked families to underfunded clinics, delayed mental health support to the quiet dignity lost in welfare queues, Heart of Care brings voice to the untold human stories behind the statistics — and asks the tough questions that matter.
Because behind every number is a name. Behind every policy is a person. And it’s time we truly listened.

Heart of Care, Episode 6 “The Systemic Destruction of Morality, Education, and Empathy — A Burmese Reflection”

🎙 Podcast Summary
Title: The Systemic Destruction of Morality, Education, and Empathy — A Burmese Reflection
Series: Heart of Care – Episode 6
Host: Dr. Evan Hope / AMCU Media
Summary:
This powerful episode explores how authoritarianism, war, and corruption have eroded the moral and emotional foundation of an entire society. Using the story of post-coup Myanmar as a case study, the episode highlights the collapse of key social pillars—education, empathy, and ethics—and how these are not just side effects of dictatorship, but deliberate strategies to destroy hope and humanity.
The host reflects on the lived experiences of Burmese families, especially children growing up without schooling, safety, or stable adult role models. It contrasts Myanmar’s broken system with the fraying edges of morality in the West, warning that when education is commodified, morality politicized, and empathy ridiculed, the consequences are global.
Listeners are invited to consider:
- What happens when a generation grows up in survival mode?
- What does it mean when teachers, doctors, and truth-tellers are punished?
- How do we rebuild empathy and care after they’ve been systematically erased?
This episode is a call to action—for reflection, for storytelling, and for protecting the fragile thread of care in every society.
