Bill Ward opens the rebranded BILLWARDLIFE-CAST (formerly the UDRCast) with Tamara interviewing him in a behind-the-scenes Q&A about his childhood, family, identity, and recovery. He recalls early homes in BC, his parents’ separation, growing up brown in a predominantly white Catholic school, and internalized prejudice about being Indigenous. He reflects on shame, grief, masculinity, and learning vulnerability in recovery, including step work, ceremony, and changing beliefs about manhood and Indigenous identity.
