In this episode of Beyond Your Wildest Imagination, host Brandon Kirk sits down with Hwiemtun Roland of the Quw'utsun First Nation to explore his powerful story of healing and life after addiction. Hwiemtun's journey led him around the world—gathering teachings, experiences, and perspectives that supported his recovery and deepened his connection to global cultures, and his own. Today, he shares that wisdom through his work at the Sacred Cedars Center in the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island, Canada. This conversation is a profound reflection on resilience, healing, and the possibilities that open up when we commit to life beyond addiction.
