Podcasts about indigenous woman

My guest today is Asha Frost. Asha is an Indigenous Medicine Woman, and the international best-selling author of You are the Medicine, The Sacred Medicine Oracle, and The Animal Elders Oracle Deck. *I've included my referral linksThough I ended up editing this out (for time) I shared with Asha how much I've used and benefitted from her Sacred Medicine Cards - I use them at every new and full moon as a tool as I listen inward for wisdom and direction. Connect with Asha: https://ashafrost.com/We talk about seasons of growing into our ourselves or "coming home to ourselves" and Asha shares a bit about her current season of life (which includes perimenopause and no more capacity for people-pleasing!). We talk about running soul-honouring businesses as highly sensitive humans living with chronic illness.And Asha shares a bit about what purpose means to her and how this ties to being a visible Indigenous Woman when so many Indigenous People historically did not have a voice and many still do not today.

The Murray Report was released - but few paid any attention to it! One of the recommendations is that there be a twenty year investigation into what happened at Residential Schools. Does this recommendation have any credibility? Will an investigation like that accomplish anything? Or has our woke Prime Minister already decided on the narrative. Karen Restoule is an Indigenous Woman - and she is with Crestview Strategies - she joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Karen Restoule is a regular guest on this show. She is an Indigenous Woman - she also works for Crestview Strategy where she advises people on issues impacting them. Stephen puts the question to her: ‘What do Indians want?' - Is the answer as simple as ripping up the Indian Act? She joins us for Three Minutes to discuss. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's no doubt that terrible atrocities occurred at residential schools in Canada. But, we have very little evidence of what actually happened. The Liberal government would like to make it illegal to question anything but the narrative that it has put in place–Justin has declared Canada guilty of genocide, just like the worst countries in the history of the world. How is this justice for anyone who died or suffered in these institutions? Karen Restoule is an Indigenous Woman and with Crestview Strategies - she joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

BONUS EPISODE 3: What I look for in a coach, as an Indigenous woman. These are the things I would now look for in a coach or mentor, especially if I were considering working with a white woman (but with anyone really, because you don't have to be white to uphold white supremacy). This is such an in-depth and honest conversation that I am having with you as if I were talking to a bestie in confidence. Why am I sharing it publicly? Because I feel all coaches, leaders and entrepreneurs need to know and we ALL benefit when you know these things! This episode is our final BONUS EPISODE (3/3) in celebration of The Round Table coming back this March, and The Decolonized Coach course launching this April!

There's little new about the upcoming midterm elections this November. The process is, as always, virtually unchanging. But the thing about this race that is different than in years past are some of the faces that are in it.  Elizabeth Mercedes Krause's run for Nevada's second congressional district marks the first run by an Indigenous woman in Nevada for a seat on Capitol Hill.  If she succeeds, she will join the ranks of the very few Indigenous women who have made it to the upper echelons of the federal government.

I am joined by Tracy Primeau, a retired Shift Manager at Bruce Power who is now on the Board of Directors at Ontario Power Generation (OPG). She is a member of the Nipissing First Nation, and was the first woman to make her way to Shift Manager from the shop floor. She discusses her first hand perspective as an energy worker while Ontario transitioned from coal to nuclear, and the life quality benefits it brought to both workers and the province broadly. Primeau shares her experience of what it is like working at a nuclear plant and leading company engagement with surrounding communities, especially as an indigenous woman. We discuss the importance of nuclear energy companies engaging towns as collaborators rather than groups merely to be convinced, especially given the deep-rootedness of the “nuclear waste story” in indigenous communities. Finally, we discuss paths forward for nuclear in indigenous communities, developments underway, and the likelihood of meeting stated goals to get indigenous communities in Canada off of diesel by 2030.

In Wyoming alone, over 700 Indigegenous women are missing. Each year, thousands of Indigenous women around the country are murdered and kidnapped with no press coverage, no outrage and no justice served. The Indigenous people are the true founders of Turtle Island; yet so little is known about their history, their culture, and their everyday life of love and peace. This is an injustice that needs to be righted!! Let's grab a plate, cop a squat and talk about it!!

In Wyoming, a pretty girl goes missing and the nation is captivated. Her story was on every social media platform and on the headline news continuously. But the media failed to mention the thousands of indigenous women that go missing each year. Where are they? And WHY AREN'T WE TALKING ABOUT THEM?

Over the past two decades, Colleen Echohawk has served the most marginalized people living in the Greater Seattle community. As the head of Chief Seattle Club, a non-profit dedicated to the rapid re-housing of urban Natives, Colleen led the effort to create nearly $100 million in new affordable housing in Seattle. Under Colleen's leadership, Chief Seattle Club has received recognition from the Puget Sound Sage Visionary for Justice Award (2018), the Neighborhood Builder Award (2017), and the Municipal League of King County's Organization of the Year (2016). Colleen is an enrolled member of the Kithehaki Band of the Pawnee Nation and a member of the Upper Athabascan people of Mentasta Lake. Colleen and her family have been proud to call Seattle home for over two decades.

Canadians are demanding answers after unmarked graves of Indigenous children were found on the grounds of a former residential boarding school in British Columbia. Similar schools existed across Canada and the U.S. aimed at "assimilating" Native peoples by removing them from their culture and language. Muriel Betsina, before her death in 2019, told her story of survival and healing after a harrowing childhood spent in a residential boarding school, recorded in partnership with the Global Reporting Centre as part of the series, "Turning Points."

April is a Turtle clan Mohawk with roots at Six Nations. She is a designer and entrepreneur and founded her jewellery company, Lofttan, with a strong ethos of slow fashion and honouring  Mother Earth. I'm so grateful to have shared this conversation with April; she truly has the most beautiful perspectives on life and the healing process.On today's episode, we chatted about: April's background and her 'why' for creating her slow fashion jewellery brandHow important art and creativity are in the healing process The ways in which living your most purposeful path can pave the way for others to do the same.How the support of her partner has helped to propel herApril's creation of The Lydia Ruth Project in honour of her Great Grandmother who was her last family member in  Residential School April's aim for the project; to educate on the effects of colonialism and Residential schools on our Indigenous communitiesAbout April Mitchell-Boudreau & Lofttan: Lofttan is an Indigenous-owned, female-led handmade convertible jewellery business with a unique opportunity for job creation.

My guest today is Pulxaneeks (Pul-ha-neeks), from the Eagle Clan of the Haisla First Nation, a First Nations tribe located on the North West Coast what is now known as British Columbia, Canada. Pulxaneeks is a living, loving result of the coastal Indigenous village that raised her & all that survived in the lineage she was born to. She honours the Elders, Mentors and huge family whose love she is a living result of and the Ancestors whose strength and resilience is flowing through her veins. Her recognition of the responsibility to use her strengths in a meaningful way in contribution to greater change led her to develop “Heart to Heart Indigenous Relations Consultation” based on her unique understanding from walking in two worlds, both Indigenous and Settler cultures. As an unsettled settler on stolen land, I am grateful to consider Pulxaneeks a friend and mentor for me on this path of Practicing Allyship in support of the Indigneous Peoples of Turtle Island, as well as connecting with my own Ancestry and lineage. In our conversation today, we speak of the right use of privilege, the necessity of uncovering your trauma and discovering your gifts, and how every new encounter between indigenous folk and settlers is an opportunity to heal the unresolved pain of first contact, and come back into connection from the heart. Enjoy.

The teenager is being interviewed, because she's reporting a sexual assault that happened while she was in the care of the child welfare system. We have an update for you today in this story, because she's given an interview to APTN, speaking about her experience and the reaction that the story has been getting.

"The best thing an indigenous woman can do in this business is be seen." - Christina Austin I've never felt more unqualified to share before and at the same time more calm in this because I am ready to grow from what I don't know. In today's episode of The All Rise Up Podcast, I'm interviewing Christina Austin. You'll find her at @Thealmosthippie on Instagram. I learned in our convo, as you will, that this woman doesn't know how to not be authentic. She doesn't have time for it and the whole idea seems pretty tiring to her. She's a mumma bear to 2 beautiful girls Harper + Ayla, which makes Christina a cuddle monster, a top negotiator, a referee, a cook, a cleaner, a driver, an art critic, a builder of barbie houses, and a healer. Christina is also a Diamond Leader partnering with doTERRA.  As a preface to this podcast, I want to share that at the time I'm sharing this live with you, that the recordings are three weeks old. I don't edit podcast episodes much. As you may know I want real-raw-un-edited convos in the world. But this one was a little different, which I'll explain in a moment. So on the day I was editing this episode, three weeks after the last recording of it, there was a terrorist attack in Christchurch, New Zealand which killed 49 defenceless New Zealanders, praying in their mosque. There was a great deal of anger around how the story of the massacre was portrayed in the media, and Christina herself was vocal about this across her social media channel. While living in Western Australia now, Christina is a Maori from New Zealand and the events that occurred 3 days ago have rocked her. The terrorist was a white Australian man. Those he massacred were Muslim's. The topic of white supremacy & privilege were voiced by powerful voices like Christina's in the media and of course, rebuffed by others. I realise now that for me, the politicisation of events like these feel like they're on a pendulum. Something happens, the topic gets heated, then it swings away. From me. Because of my privilege. Because of something I'd never even thought of before. Again, privilege. For Christina though, this topic is one she's passionate about, and one that is hers on a cellular level. Her fierce stance is like hot blood in her veins. I bring this information to the front of this podcast because when I interviewed Christina, we did something I never have with previous interviewees. We recorded two conversations on two seperate days. The first was epic. You'll hear it for yourself in a moment. I freakin' LOVED IT. Before the first interview, I'd asked my own Diamond Leaders what they'd be interested in hearing from Christina and one of my gals Danyel Waters, who'd spent time with Christina on a doTERRA Co-Impact Sourcing trip to Nepal, said I had to get her talking about her passion for being a voice in her community for indigenous women. Amongst other topics of importance. In the first conversation we recorded, I skirted the edges of these questions knowing that if Christina wanted to bring this to the table, it was set and ready, and she did, in part, bring conversations that I had never considered before to me, and to us. After we recorded the first part of this podcast, Christina realised that the platform was open for more, and we later recorded another hour where we got deeper into these topics. I got schooled in these recordings. I realise I have no qualification to speak about white privilege. I realised I had no fuc*ing idea how to talk about white privilege, or how to ask questions about it without sounding like a dim-wit (I've not cut this out because I am here to learn too), and basically my friends, I learned that my privilege has made me blind to... well... my privilege. During the recording of these podcasts, I realised that there's been numerous times I have personally been ignorant to my own privilege in the world and in doTERRA. I came to this business as the second most powerful person in the world. A rich, pretty, white female in a Western society. Second only to my own husband. A rich white man in a Western society. The finance and freedom I earn with doTERRA, and my own business prior to doTERRA even granted me the opportunity to extend what women don't have access to in a corporate box, and create limitlessness and choice that amplified my privilege. Has my own ignorance to this privilege meant I've said and done things that may not have sat well with others? Now, I'm sure of it. And for that, I am sorry. I even sat numb at one point in the second recording and considered the profile of my previous guests. All amazing. And in honesty, in the same bucket as I am. No diversity. The biggest question is now 'What am I going to do about it?'. Maybe this is a start. I fumble. I sound like an idiot at times. I can hear that I try to agree and even mirror points in this that when listening back to, hold zero relevance or ' sameness' at all to what Christina is saying. I am shook in a good way and I know there is so much more depth to this. This is a big episode. Please listen to the whole thing with an open heart and mind and like me maybe, with the understanding that I've got it wrong before and am just only now walking with wobbly foal legs into this. I will continue to make mistakes in this arena, I'm sure. But I am willing to be wrong, and corrected and wrong and to do something about it. And I can't forget to mention that you're also going to hear some absolute gems when it comes to inspo for your doTERRA business. At the core of this conversation are three points: doTERRA can be and is the most incredible platform for growth, expansion and opportunity for any culture. The work that doTERRA do with Choice Humanitarian is to be applauded WE need to get better at appreciating, celebrating and welcoming diversity. Personally, I hope this episode start conversations that need to be had. I hope that together we can recognise and then action areas for growth. I hope that some of us, as we listen, have the same response as me 'Aaahhhh wow. I didn't/haven't/wouldn't have ever thought of that'. And then 'And now I am thinking of it, I can't let that thought float off. I now have a role and responsibility to play in this'. There's some resources I want to share here with you that were discussed: http://laylafsaad.com/meandwhitesupremacy-workbook http://laylafsaad.com/ Resources: Brene Brown: Dare to Lead https://www.instagram.com/nowhitesaviors/?hl=en Other topics we cover off in this podcast include: Christina's first experience with the essential oils and why she bought her first kit Why Christina went into a rage the first time she saw the doTERRA business plan Why it's so cool that in doTERRA 'We're just a number'. Privilege How Christina introduces the oils and business conversations with her enrolments Ranking to Diamond while enrolling 3-5 people per month (10 max!) How Christina built a team when she didn't even have time for a shower, let alone world domination. Why you don't have to be a yoga teacher to share the oils and create an epic business. Why presenting the business opportunity differently to every person is so valuable. How doTERRA gets the it so right when it comes to supporting local indigenous cultures The difference the 'money' makes: doTERRA creating conscious entrepreneurs. "We want to make massive change. We aren't pretentious money-makers. " Who the first people are you'd want to share the oils and business opportunity with, and so so so much more.
