Episode 52: MMIW: Indigenous Sovereignty and Healing with Lyla June

Our ancestors understood that the health of the land is directly tied to the safety and sacredness of our women and relatives. In a system built on extraction, both our earth, our sisters and our relatives have faced deep violence. Today, we are continuing our focus on the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) crisis by welcoming Lyla June Johnston to our studio. This conversation explores how reclaiming our traditional food systems, land sovereignty, and ancestral wisdom serves as the greatest protective shield and path toward collective healing.

Episode 51: MMIW: Healing Through Taking Space

In Wabanaki territory and across Turtle Island, our women, girls and two-spirit relatives are the heart of our nations. They carry our stories, our languages, and our future. Yet, the painful reality of the MMIW crisis continues to affect our families and communities deeply. This week, we welcome back a very familiar voice and longtime advocate to the studio, our former Aunties co-host, Lauren Stevens. Together, the Aunties sit down with Lauren for a deeply necessary conversation about grief, resilience, and reclaiming our narrative. We dive into the profound medicine of speaking our stolen relations' names out loud, ensuring they are never made invisible by the systems around us. Lauren shares how utilizing the Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) network provides critical, proactive support to keep our people whole and protect our collective spirit before crisis even begins. This is an episode about taking up space, raising our voices, and anchoring ourselves in cultural traditions. True healing happens when we center our Wabanaki values, look out for one another, and refuse to be silenced.

Episode 50: MMIW: Healing Through Policy

In Wabanaki territory, our women are the heart of our nations. They are the givers of life, the keepers of culture, and the protectors of our future. Yet, for too long, our sisters have been made invisible by systems that fail to see their worth. Today, we are opening a three-part series on our Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) with Maulian Bryant. This is a conversation about love, grief, justice, and the sovereign right to live in safety.

Episode 49: Strengthening our Communities through Research, Data, & Sovereignty

Indigenous communities across this nation hold deep knowledge on how we heal and how we learn. For many generations, academia and non-indigenous people have told our stories and shared their perspectives on who we are. Today, we have many indigenous scholars who are changing this trend. Increasingly, indigenous people are obtaining the education and degrees necessary to conduct research within our communities while integrating indigenous methodologies, making the work even more meaningful. The Aunties will be talking with Dr. Darren Ranco (Penobscot) and Dr. Suzanne Greenlaw (Maliseet), who are both indigenous researchers conducting innovative work in Wabanaki communities!

Ann Pardilla - Ann Pardilla was born in Old Town, Maine (to a Penobscot mother and a Kiowa father) and grew up on the Penobscot Indian Island Reservation. Ann later travelled the world with her husband George Pardilla and their six children throughout his time in the military. Upon returning to Old Town, Maine in the 1970’s, Ann went to work serving her community as a tribal council member as well as Vice Chief for Penobscot Nation. In the late 1990’s and into the early 2000’s, she worked with Wabanaki Public Health to continue her service to her community and, in doing so, helped to create the Wabanaki Spring Social which we are celebrating here today.
