I am awake, I am alive and today is the day! Day One of the Indigenous Women's Leadership Fire I created for SIoux Lookout First Nations Health Authority (SLFNHA). And yes, I said fire. Not seminar. Not workshop. Fire. Because I wanted to invoke the healing power and traditional ways of sitting around a fire to share and teach. It won't be done around an actual fire (pretty sure the conference centre would frown on that) but I will share my vision with participants, invoking that feeling of safety and warmth that is always provided by good people surrounding a good fire. It's going to be an AWESOME day for me and I pray an awesome day for YOU, my Speaker Friend. What would you do differently with a seminar or workshop to make it truly your own? Not just to be different, but because YOU know a way that is different that WORKS! Only you know the answer, you and your future audience members. Enjoy the day! Love you! HUGSSSSSSS Sandi

Today is Day 2 of my Youth Leadership event with some of the most marginalized and oppressed people in Canada - a group of young, Indigenous women from a northern remote community. Took about an hour before they would look up at me. By end of Day One, we had some verbal responses. No judgement, I get it. They are so out of their element. So today, I want to leave them with something ... The woman who engaged with me at break, the one whose journey is so like my own ... she gets my first book. The youth who was writing her way through the day ... she gets my journal. Four others will get my third book - The PATH, which spells out the action plan they should take as Indigenous people in this country, the path that will bring us closer to a united country. And the others, will get a copy of Copper Stone, a book by Julia Gibson, a non-Indigenous author from California who reached out to me after she was slammed for misrepresenting Indigenous characters in her first book. We worked to rerelease her book, with the same story line, now supported by Indigenous characters that presented as authentic rather than Hollywood caricatures. Yes, I will leave them with something because they will leave me with so much. The desire to do more. The journey continues ...
