I have had just a jam packed weekend full of inspiration and amazing conversations.  I recap all of that and more in today's episode.

Today I talk about what reconciliation really should mean, the burn out and exhaustion of the one sided efforts of reconciliation.  I also talk about racial battle fatigue and some resources for those that are feeling these effects.  There is also a little known piece of history here in Alberta when it comes to the National Parks here.

I continue to talk about the Olympics and the importance of the TRC calls to action relating to sports.  I also talk about Indigenous me too, the book Jonny Appleseed by Joshua Whitehead, and a huge congratulations goes out to KD Lang.

While Calgary has spent a considerable amount of time and money already on the olympic bid, there is a large part of the conversation that is missing.  I talk about incoroporating the TRC calls to action into any olympics and specificially focusing on the calls to action that relate to sports and sporting events.
