In Episode 4, co-host Lyla June Johnston (Diné/Tsétsêhéstâhese) speaks with Tanaya Winder (Shoshone, Ute, Diné, and Paiute), an accomplished author, singer-songwriter, poet, and motivational speaker, about burn out and working from our heart’s purpose. Tanaya combines storytelling, singing, and poetry to delve into themes of healing, love, and discovering one's purpose—what she calls "heartwork," as a form of medicine and encourages individuals to harness their voices as a source of power.
