Vanessa Lesperance is a Métis woman originally from Treaty 1 territory, and Ariana Fotinakis is Anishinaabe. Both speak candidly about what it means to reclaim culture when you weren’t raised in it, and the messy, sacred work of navigating identity as women of mixed Indigenous heritage.

The Fifth Dimension of Business21. Is Letting Go Of What No Longer Serves Really Serving Us?The personal development and spiritual worlds *love* to emphasize the importance of "letting go". But in our quests to let go of all that no longer serve, are we missing out on some important lessons? Are we, perhaps, actually clinging to even more control?
