On today’s episode, we took a different approach to this big topic and worked with Selina Kenmille, her son Leighton Wise Spirit, and Heather Atwin to have a round table discussion instead of the usual back and forth we have between just the two of us. We touch on all sorts of topics ranging from fry bread and Indin’ tacos to suicide awareness and coping tools for…

#25 – Hidden Words and Multiple Meanings

~ Click Here to Download ~

On today’s episode, we talk about those words that have some sting to them. You know those words… the ones that get us cringing or offended when someone mentions them. Well, we talk about a few of the ones we’ve explored or experienced over the years. We also talk about how we respond to these words and how their meanings can differ.

Here are some of the main ideas we…

Correction Reflections… Again

~ Click Here to Download ~

Today’s episode is all about being wrong… we caught ourselves making mistakes on three separate episodes. Although being wrong is okay, correcting yourself when you recognize that you’re wrong is important. On today’s show, we correct ourselves on some mistakes we made in three episodes (#16, #21, and #22), and then we reflect about it.

Here are some of the main ideas…

#22 – Ethnobotany

~ Click Here to Download ~

Ethnobotany can be looked at in different ways. On one hand, it describes the people-plant relationships that Indigenous cultures have always relied on.

In this episode, we dive into definitions, some history, and we even talk about…

This is a cherished drink that’s faced a…
