One day at a time
With the overall and collective climate showing up as anxiety, stress, or even depression, it's important for us to take it one day at a time. We're simultaneously full of hope, dreams, and motivation to keep our important work going into an unstable future. If you're wondering how to make an impact within Indigenous communities, please consider donating to Indigenous Vision.

Workplace Culture Matters
Like many, we were shocked to learn of the tragic death of an employee at a bank who sat at their desk, deceased, for four days until someone noticed. Workplace culture matters. How do we improve our workplace cultures? How do we care, just a little bit more, about those around us?

Self Care Through the Hustle to Beat Poverty
If you're like us, you may have been hustling and working all hours these past couple of decades for education, rent, your family, your home, or all of the above simultaneously! As women who continue to work our butts out of poverty we cannot let the conversation around the importance of self care fade like our energy does sometimes. We're understanding the line between hustle and self care as we get older.

Respecting Land in 2024
With outdoor lifestyles becoming more popular and people spending more time on the land in general, it's important to engage with our environment in a humble and respectful way. Indigenous nations have not only been losing access to sacred sites (to practice our culture) but many sites are being destroyed by carelessness. How can you leave the land in a better state for future generations to enjoy and thrive on?

Despite our love for that hot tea it's important for us to take a moment to reflect and step into our lifelong process of learning new ways when it comes to witnessing someone being 'cancelled'. Practicing compassion and humility when dealing some of the worst sides of people is a skill we believe in. Are people being overly cancelled or are we letting too much slide?

So how do we stop the issues from infecting our tissues? Find out on episode 95 of the IVPodcast, where two fabulous Indigenous women share how they continue to thrive through a lifetime of disrespect.

Respecting the Pow Wow
IVPodcast 93 - Respecting the Pow Wow
This week we're talking Pow Wow etiquette. Whether it's standing during the opening Prayer, Grand Entry, or joining the circle when encouraged by the host, there are many ways to enjoy and, more importantly, respect the Pow Wow. What happens when non-Indigenous people want to join in? What if someone wants to make their own regalia who isn't Indigenous? What effect or impacts would it create on Pow Wow culture if non-Indigenous people took part alongside us?

Reflecting on Community
IVPodcast 91 - Reflecting on Community
We've decompressed after our MMIW events and are still feeling the love and support from everyone who showed up in the community! If you've received one of our self defense kits, we hope you never have to use them, but if you do, Indigenous Vision is not responsible for any injury or death as a result. We are our own best defense when met with violence, thank you to everyone who donated and made each MMIW event a loving and supportive space this year. If you'd like to learn the tools and practices of Cultural Humility like self reflection, register for our upcoming training that begins on May 23rd!

Cultural Humility with Celina Gray
Cultural Humility with Celina Gray!
Welcome to the eleventh installment of the Cultural Humility Podcast series presented by Indigenous Vision! Our special guest is not only an Indigenous Vision team member, she was also a part of our January 2023 Cultural Humility Training of Trainers cohort; Celina Gray!
The Cultural Humility model provides a method to advocate and maintain accountability by redressing the power imbalances in our communities. For over two decades, the model has replaced the insufficient notion of “cultural competence” with a cyclical approach that embraces critical self-reflection as a lifelong learning process to create a broader, more inclusive view of the world.
Register for the next Cultural humility training this March!

Culture & Infrastructure
IVPodcast Ep. 74 | Culture & Infrastructure
As we put our health on the line and teeter between burnout and working our way out of poverty, it's important to share the challenges that much of Indian country faces when it comes to infrastructure. Whether it's a lack of water, paved roads, access to food, and other amenities, we work to try and close the gap between these systemic injustices. With compassion, love, and humility, we're striving to lift us all up, together. Even the trolls.

IVPodcast Ep. 73 | Dear Pretendian, you are doing harm.
We're revisiting the ongoing issue of pretendians and the harm they cause. As Indigenous Womxn of color we once again explain how the exploitive nature behind pretendians and race shifters causes harm and is a part of the big problem that Indigenous people are facing; environmental & social injustices, identity and cultural loss, and cultural resilience. It's all connected.

Cultural Humility with Phoenix Smith!
Welcome to the tenth installment of the Cultural Humility Podcast series presented by Indigenous Vision! We're very honored to have Phoenix Smith on the show this week! Phoenix was a part of our March 2022 cohort and brought so much wisdom to our dialogue we just had to invite them to explore the work further.
J. Phoenix Smith earned a Graduate Certificate in Ecotherapy in 2011 from JFK University in the world’s first ever Graduate Ecotherapy Certificate program and a Masters in Social Work from the historically-black Howard University in Washington, D.C.
Prior to coming to the field of Ecotherapy, she has been a public health leader in the field of HIV for over 25 years, managing and leading public health programs in the U.S. They are also an Initiated Elder in the Indigenous Afro-Cuban religion Lucumi to the Oricha, or Deity of Nature known as Aganyu, the Spirit of the Volcano and of the Wilderness.

The Cultural Humility model provides a method to advocate and maintain accountability by redressing the power imbalances in our communities. For over two decades, the model has replaced the insufficient notion of “cultural competence” with a cyclical approach that embraces critical self-reflection as a lifelong learning process to create a broader, more inclusive view of the world.

IVPodcast Ep. 70 | Chronic Wasting Disease
Souta and a small team of people with working dogs have been visiting various sampling sites searching for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) and environmental stressors on The Blackfeet Nation. Together they scan creeks, rivers, and other areas for mink and otter scat that will be lab tested for heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, covid-19, and flame retardants. Once results are received, data is mapped out to ensure the community living in these areas are aware of the potential dangers of using and consuming sacred plants for medicine and other uses. Learn more about what can be done about CWD.

Cultural Humility with Lea Wetzel
Welcome to the Cultural Humility Podcast Series presented by Indigenous Vision!
This week Souta Calling Last (Executive Director & Trainer) and Melissa Spence (Producer & Trainer) are joined by Lea Wetzel who was a part of our most recent Cultural Humility March 2022 Cohort. Lea is an Indigenous Blackfoot woman who is using her life experiences to help others heal and find the support they need to live better. Lea is the VP at North Central Montana Human Trafficking and MMIP Task-Force, a Drop-in Center Coordinator/Trainer/Indigenous Recovery support at Montana's Peer Network among many other things.
The Cultural Humility model provides a method to advocate and maintain accountability by redressing the power imbalances in our communities. For over two decades, the model has replaced the insufficient notion of “cultural competence” with a cyclical approach that embraces critical self-reflection as a lifelong learning process to create a broader, more inclusive view of the world.

Cultural Humility - Principle 4
Welcome to the Cultural Humility Podcast Series presented by Indigenous Vision!
This week Souta Calling Last (Executive Director & Trainer) and Melissa Spence (Producer & Trainer) breakdown the fourth principle of Cultural Humility: Advocating and maintaining institutional accountability that parallels the three principles above. While individual development is essential, it is insufficient as a standalone process to redirect the social hierarchy and structural inequality that set the stage for unequal service/provider dynamics like health care delivery and care. Organizations and institutions are required as well to examine their unexamined processes and structures to participate actively in system transformation. Join our next training or schedule one with our Indigenous, female-led team!
The Cultural Humility model provides a method to advocate and maintain accountability by redressing the power imbalances in our communities. For over two decades, the model has replaced the insufficient notion of “cultural competence” with a cyclical approach that embraces critical self-reflection as a lifelong learning process to create a broader, more inclusive view of the world.

Who are you appropriating and how can we redress that power back?
