“You Don't Look Native...Enough”
What does it mean to be Native when people tell you that you don’t look Native?

In this raw and reflective episode, Katelyn gets personal about growing up in the blurred spaces of identity — where community pride and outside perception don’t always align. From childhood moments of humiliation to rejection within her own Native spaces, she opens up about the pain of proving her existence and how healing came through the voices of Indigenous women who reminded her: you are already enough.

Whether you’ve been questioned, misjudged, or told you didn’t belong — this episode will meet you there.

🌿 Topics in this episode:
– Blood quantum, identity, and colonial aftermath
– White-passing Native experiences
– Community rejection and generational silence
– Reclaiming belonging through matriarchal connection
– Teaching our kids they don’t need to prove anything

You’re not a fraction.
You’re a whole damn ancestor in the making.
