My quiet thoughts about International Women's Day

Our communities and nations have practiced forms of governance where women play pivotal roles. When I think of this, I am reminded of many women I have met along my journey including some from the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, a nation that operates on a matrilineal system where women hold significant authority. Women who were the ones responsible for selecting and advising Chiefs, maintain social order and preserve cultural traditions. This form of leadership ensures that decisions are made with the welfare of the entire community in mind and are reflective of a harmonious balance between genders.

It's Our Birthday! Four Years of Thinking Without Limits: Indigenous Box’s Journey Forward

Four years ago today, we signed our incorporation documents. We knew, deep down, that this step would change our lives, but we could never have imagined just how much. The idea behind Indigenous Box was simple yet bold: to think without limits, to create something bigger than ourselves, and to do it in a way that is true to who I am as a nehiyaw (Cree) woman.

As we worked we had visitors come to an open window, one was a muskrat and the other a large bird. They also spoke to us… my dream ended before I could understand what was being asked of me and the sky grew dark before I woke up to a bright sun.

Amplifying Indigenous Voices at APEC Peru 2024

Standing at the entrance of this massive structure, I took a deep breath and quietly reminded myself of why I was here. This wasn’t just a moment for me. I couldn’t help but feel emotional, reflecting on my journey: a quiet girl from the reserve, raised to believe in the power of community, now standing as an influential voice on the global stage. "Community values, shared abundance, reciprocity... these are the principles that brought you here," I reminded myself.

Our intentions were, and still are to be caretakers of products, helpers in commerce and builders in the Indigenous supply chain.
