Workplace Wellbeing
Wellbeing of employees is exceptionally important in these times. Whether you follow a remote, in-office, or blended arrangement, wellbeing activities can help employees be more resilient and fulfilled, and contribute to your organization thriving even better.
I provide consultations and training for the following areas:
- Wellbeing workshops designed specifically for your organization
- Practicing from an Indigenous worldview with Indigenous specific strategies
- Conducting team-building exercises to strengthen connections
- Arranging one-on-one counseling sessions for employees

About the Workshop:
Niimama’s (Mama’s) have been parenting in isolation for a long time. There was isolation well before the current world turn of events over the past few years. This workshop explores this and also what impact traumas and isolation have on Mama’s and their families. What is our role as workers or members of this Mama’s village. And in what ways we can support healing and connection for these Mama’s

About the Workshop:
The hibernating mukwa (bear) of childhood trauma is about exploring the theory that children create a bear to survive trauma. As adults, this bear goes into hibernation and still walks with us. It is an Indigenous worldview that has been adapted from Gabor Mate’s “The Stupid Friend”.
