SHE BELIEVES Alexa Gamache

In this episode, my mother joins me to celebrate and reflect on one of her biggest athletic accomplishments, the Boston Marathon! We also talk about her career as a female police officer!

Today's episode is a bit different. As a non-Indigenous person I have decided speak on the recent discoveries of the now 572 and counting, Indigenous souls in Canada due to a cultural genocide of the Indigenous people (residential school systems). I am very fortunate enough to have received a message from a dear friend of mine, Cameron Alexander, an Indigenous, Algonquin person. As a Canadian women, and founder of She Believes I feel that it is my duty to fight for, and support every Indigenous women in Canada and their community. I will continue to educate myself on Indigenous culture, the colonization of the Indigenous population, and Indigeneity. 

Welcome to the very first episode of SHE BELIEVES! I share my own personal experiences with understanding gender inequality, and my motivation behind creating this podcast! I hope you enjoy!
