Why It Matters Now...
You carry something sacred. A mission. A medicine. A message.
And yet, colonization taught us to quiet ourselves. To abandon our stories. To disconnect from our knowing.
Many of us were never taught how to speak with authority, clarity, or confidence — not because we weren’t capable, but because the systems around us weren’t made for our voices.
But our ancestors were powerful speakers, leaders, and visionaries. They prayed, taught, and led with story. They spoke for the land, for the people, and for the future.
It’s time to reclaim that voice — not just for ourselves, but for those who came before and those still to come.

What is the Training Lodge...
The Training Lodge is an Indigenous-led, 8-week foundational communication and leadership program designed for changemakers who want to strengthen their voice and presence as leaders, facilitators, advocates, and storytellers.
It’s a culturally safe, trauma-informed space where you can reclaim your voice with pride, purpose, and power.
This isn’t about learning how to perform — it’s about remembering who you are and learning how to speak that truth into the world with clarity and conviction.

Why It's Different...
You won’t be asked to leave your identity, authenticity, passion, or boldness at the door.
This is a circle of mutual respect, relational accountability, and cultural grounding — led by someone who understands what it means to walk between worlds and still speak from the heart.
Each week includes teachings, skill-building, community practice, and reflections guided by guest facilitators and others.
