“A powerful exploration of what it means to know where you come from—and what it costs when that knowledge is withheld.”
Adrienne Brodeur, nationally bestselling author of Wild Game
“Hers is a voice we need to hear, a moral compass in our increasingly disoriented times. ”
Susan Choi, award-winning author of Trust Exercise
I’m a Métis family physician, writer, and lecturer, with Anishinaabe, Cree, and European settler lineage.
I have found who I am by searching for who and where I come from, an exploration itself which has been anything but straightforward and easy. Sharing my story is how I’m learning to find healing and community.
I’m here to inspire you with my writing and speaking. My hope is that we can all take the time to get to know our own stories, so we may all find our own form of healing.
Our stories
holds our remedies.
Storytelling & inspiration for people looking for where they belong.
I know that your life hasn’t always been easy.
You’ve felt out of place. Lost and disconnected from the people you’re “supposed” to be closest to. You question yourself and wonder if and where you belong.
But even when you’ve looked outside yourself for people who have stories like yours, you’ve still felt alone.
I understand. I felt confused about my true identity for much of my life.
I figured out how to find my home in this big, complicated world...
by turning over the rocks of my own story.
For most of my life, storytelling has contextualized my experiences. It’s allowed me to understand various moments in my life and uncover the nuggets of beauty I’ve found along the way.
It’s allowed me to uncover the richness of my history and process some of the pain and grief that came with it.
It’s been my act of reclamation, my act of resistance.
When we feel broken, lost, or forgotten, exploring our stories and the stories of our ancestors, the stories told to us and the stories hidden away, can help us feel whole again.
Tell Your Story. Heal Yourself.
