In this episode of the Métis Speaker Series, we sit down with Ariana Fotinakis and Vanessa Lesperance, the founders of Decolonize and Rize, for a transformative conversation on dismantling the deeply rooted colonial systems in our lives and workplaces. Both being proud Indigenous women who reclaimed their roots as adults, Ariana and Vanessa share how their personal journeys of cultural reconnection inspired their mission to combat burnout and colonial capitalism. They discuss their unique framework, which includes responding, ascending, loving, and embodying, and the vital importance of “rest as resistance” in a high-pressure world. Tune in for their insights on bridging the gap between colonized structures and indigenous wisdom, and how returning to our roots can help us all move towards authentic, human-centred action.
