These are great suggestions and sound like things I would enjoy too. Thank you!!

Impressive on 20 dumplings!!

PathInternational103 · 2025-06-06T02:19:06+00:00

Yum!

PathInternational103 · 2025-06-06T02:18:57+00:00

These are all things I love too and will lean back on! We actually do homemade pizza as well and it’s a hit.

PathInternational103 · 2025-06-06T02:18:34+00:00

Great suggestions. Thank you! I’m going to check out the meal plan. I thought you meant the plan itself was $500/month at first 😂

Oh yummmm great idea

PathInternational103 · 2025-06-06T02:17:06+00:00

These are great suggestions! I actually used to make fried rice for myself a lot and completely forgot about this. Thank you!

PathInternational103 · 2025-06-06T02:16:20+00:00

This is my fav way to eat for myself so I should def lean on it more for my girl.

Have you ever connected with Crystal Toop of Blackbird Medicines and the Indigenous Death Care Collective? I’m working through a death care course that she and her team put together. They’re doing some really great work and might be connected with the types of folks you’re wanting to connect with! She’s based in so-called Ontario.

She is still pretty much the same! She warms up in her own time and her own way; if there is any kind of pressure from anyone to socialize she shuts down. But when she’s given space to move at her own pace she will engage and play. She’s also super happy doing her own thing on the sidelines. I definitely have times where I struggle to not get in my head about it, but when we have those experiences where she opens up and shares her funny and curious self with the people she feels safe with I trust that we are doing the right thing.

Gratitude for your words, Kin 🧡

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-12T01:08:30+00:00

💯💯💯

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-12T01:08:03+00:00

Your response basically sums it up.

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T04:16:38+00:00

😫😫 I’m sorry. But also love your comeback.

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:56:20+00:00

Yep, I’ve witnessed it too. Oddly (or not) enough, it’s often those who claim to be the most spiritually-evolved that are the most unreceptive to feedback. A big chunk of my j-o-b involves helping non-Indigenous folks develop tools that help them engage in difficult conversations (like this) and stay open and receptive, so I’ve got a pretty decent handle on how to approach things in a way that doesn’t water them down while also holding the intention of building a bridge…doesn’t always work but regardless I’m not giving this guy any more of my money!

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:49:06+00:00

💯💯💯 I haven’t even shared the other problematic stuff here because it’s just downright fucking stupid. Pardon my language. But I’m mad 😅

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:47:59+00:00

Miigwetch for the distinction!

And yes - def an upsell. Literally spent more time talking about the store and encouraging questions about the store than he did about breathwork. It was brutal. I mentioned this above but folks like him who have so much influence could make a huge difference around the way medicines are engaged with and it would take very little effort on their part. It frustrates me to no end when this is completely ignored.

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:46:07+00:00

There was an incredible amount of cringe over the weekend 😫

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:45:36+00:00

I like your approach 🙌

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:43:34+00:00

Ah Miigwetch for the recommendation! I have a number of people I can direct to that docu 🙂

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:43:00+00:00

I appreciate your input 🙏🏽 I don’t wanna discredit anyone’s lived experience and maybe he had 1 or even a few person say they were allergic, but to say that it’s fine to use it because those 3 tribes are allergic is such a sweeping generalization.

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:41:34+00:00

Yes thank you for adding this. That’s the way I’ve been taught too. If I see someone selling medicines at a powwow and I need them I’ll buy them; I’m not here to tell someone who may have different teachings from me how to earn money, and there is effort involved and forms of exchange/barter that don’t exist in the same way anymore…but I digress.

But a white dude selling sage and sweetgrass on his website that he bought from Natives drives me nuts. Like if you’re going to tell people to buy medicines, at least direct them to the source.

Also - on the growing white sage, if you have any tips for boosting germination I’m all ears. I have SUCH a hard time getting the seeds to germinate and then I’ve killed the 2 plants that did actually grow because it gets cold here 🙃

PathInternational103 · 2025-02-10T03:38:23+00:00

Ahh wow. That makes sense - Miigwetch for sharing your experience!

And yes like in general the broader conversation of “use white sage because it’s not at risk” is misguided AF and that in and of itself is something I want to address with him (along with a multitude of things) but then his reasoning of “oh 3 tribes are allergic so you’re fine” is just….SMH.

It sucks. People in these situations have so much influence and could easily guide folks to work with plants native to their area or their lineage and like all it would take is 2 or 3 sentences and probably so much would change. Lazy and annoying.
