Reclaiming a Relationship Based Approach



At Matriarch Movement, our mission is to empower Indigenous people and elevate their voices through storytelling, wellness, and advocacy. We strive to challenge and shift the mainstream narrative around Indigenous people by providing a platform for their stories and experiences. Through our podcast, social media, interviews, and wellness sessions, we aim to inspire and connect with Indigenous people across the globe, while educating and engaging non-Indigenous allies. We believe that by centering the voices and leadership of Indigenous voices within the health and wellness industry, we can create a more just, equitable, and sustainable world for all.

All proceeds will go back into Matriarch Movement.



With your donation, anything can be made possible with Matriarch Movement,
by curating workshops, sharing other's stories and creating new outlets for youth to feel seen and heard.
