Customer Reviews
Really enjoying it so far!
I went right back to the first podcasts and am loving the perspective from a younger generation. I'm attempting to bring more indigenous content to my high school English classes, and this podcast holds the potential to be especially relatable to the teenagers I teach. Can't wait to hear the rest!
Loved this podcast! Wish there were more
I found this podcast series very informative, and also very current information! This podcast is great for someone like myself who did not get to grow up in my traditional culture. It really helped me to hear the stories of other people who were in the same position as me, I felt somewhat like an imposter as I have tried to learn more about my heritage and traditions. To hear that other people are only just beginning their journey later in life as well is very reassuring. Thank you!
Amazing
As someone newly exploring their cultural identity, you've made my insecurities less prominent. Especially your podcast in which you discuss trying to find spaces to explore your culture. I have definitely felt as though I don't belong but it's reassuring to know that I'm not the only one and don't have to worry about not being "native enough" (whatever enough is). Your podcast is so comforting and helpful for me as I explore and embrace my identity so thank you!
