What people are saying:

“Katrhryn is an excellent inter-cultural interpreter and workshop facilitator. She taught us how to start engaging with and relate to our territorial hosts in a more respectful way. She brought elders into the conversation, and helped accelerate the shift to “we” that all of us need in order to ensure economic development is more sustainable for all people living in the region” -Paul Kelly, Program Manager, Community Futures Central Kootenay.


Online Workshop Series:
Historical Colonization of Europe’s Earth-based Cultures and How it Informs Today’s Colonial Settler Mindset

Managing the Shadow Aspect (Dr. Carl Jung) of Colonialism and Reclaiming an Earth-Honouring Worldview

Course Summary
British, French and Spanish colonization of Turtle Island is a more recent example of an imperial or religious mindset that has sought to overpower civilizations and territories for millennia. This educational program takes things back further yet, and helps individuals of European ancestry explore how the colonizing activities of ancient Romans and Vikings (in what is now Europe) have impacted world history, your own worldview, and suppressed Earth-based cultures and spirituality that you may have in your ancestral lineages.

After unpacking these concepts, discover what decisions and actions you can take today for cultural self-improvement, self-forgiveness, and how you can help co-create a better path for humanity on Turtle Island and across the globe. Full syllabus available HERE.
