For the first time in as long as I can remember, I do not have a dream I am chasing. So I went looking backward instead of forward.

In this episode I trace my actual path. My first dream of becoming a teacher at seventeen. The mentors who saw something in me I could not see in myself. My years in motorsports. The decade at the First Nations Health Authority where I became a mother, a medium, and a confident woman all at once. The keynote I recently gave to a youth summit in Squamish. And what it felt like to realize, twenty six years later, that my original dream had already come true.

I close with a poem from The Wishing Bone Cycle, a Swampy Cree creation story I have come to love.
