From Uninvited to Welcomed: A Guest on Indigenous Lands with Kim Trottier

This week, we’re joined by friend of the podcast Kim Trottier, who reflects on the teachings she’s gathered as a settler living and working in First Nations community spaces. Together, Kim and George explore the deep meaning that comes from understanding one’s ancestry, the central role children play in community life, and the healing power of language and relationships. They speak to the ripple effect of showing up with care, and the ways trust and belonging are built over time. In their conversation, they offer insight into why safe spaces matter, and how—especially in healthcare—relationships often mean more than expertise.
