In this episode, Stephen Hurley is joined by an innovative educator from southern Alberta who draws from her urban teaching experience to illustrate how she intertwines math, language arts, and other curricula with the natural world to create dynamic, hands-on learning experiences. 

The episode dives into land-based learning, the value of indigenous knowledges, and the integration of metaphor and storytelling in the education system. Our guest discusses her approach to building inclusive, safe spaces that challenge traditional norms, address biases, and foster a deep connection with the environment. 

This episode provides an enlightening discussion on the importance of vulnerability, disruption of the status quo, and the subtle shifts necessary to combat anti-indigenous racism within our educational frameworks.
