Not committing to making this a series or being consistent with it, but when I am feeling philosophical on another Friday in the future, I may throw some more thoughts like this up.

You've been asking for it, and the time is finally here! This Full Pink Moon, we are launching Rewild Your Workflow-a professional development curriculum for your team to build sustainable work ecosystems. You will learn how to simultaneously derive wisdom from and take care of the Land through tools that work to restore rather than deplete.

Challenge the standard burnout culture by aligning to wisdom from the Land and the traditional knowledge of the seasons, lunar cycles and plant medicines that will help your team grow in collectively beneficial ways.

Send a DM or an email to info@evergoodmedicine.com for an info kit detailing all the available offerings.

I got a call from a relative that they were sick, so I headed out to gather everything I needed for spruce juice. Everyone makes theirs a little differently and depending on the season I add what is available. Getting out on the Land today was healing and refreshing in and of itself. I love how the Land can just automatically centre you. Remind your body of where and how you belong to it. It is a beautiful gift to get to make medicines for people and share in their healing. We are all connected. We heal together.

My hope is that as you learn more how to connect and gather that you too can experience this feeling. Health belongs to us all, well-being is our natural state. When we sit in this remembering, that is when we rebalance.

Yesterday we had an awesome time working with youth from across the NWT teaching them about our Denewá Ts’įlį (traditional Dene economy) and the teachings from mycelia for how to do ethical, community centred business. This was a great group of youth who had so much to share and we’re very grateful to have had the opportunity to spend this time with them. It also challenged us to condense our week long offering that we do during our Medicine Walk Apprenticeship Program into 2.5 hours so it was a great challenge and we’re so happy with how well it turned out.

Our traditional Dene social economy is so beautiful and I feel lucky to come from such a caring and thoughtful culture built on sharing and respect for every being.

These pictures are of the youth learning about the importance of communication in business through a game called frostbite where their leader has frostbite and cannot move and the rest all have snowblindness and must build the fire on teamwork, trust and instructions alone. Máhsi Cho

Happy Halloween everyone! I’m a fan of fungi so I thought, what would be better than to share about some spooky ones that live alongside us here in NWT. Enjoy your night and PSA chew on some spruce gum after your candy binge!!

A little late to the game as I spent all of last week at the National Elders’ Conference. But since every day is truth and reconciliation day, I decided to post these reflections anyways. Truth and reconciliation leads to healing as a collective.

What does reconciliation look like to you?

We cannot begin to express how immensely proud we are of one of our alums from Deline who prepared and ran this fish hide canoe sewing workshop this week! Carley is just 14 years old and with the support of her school, ?etseo Ayah and local Elder Camilla, she ran this amazing workshop for her peers! You might remember the fish hide workshop we ran this summer in Deline and Carley took it upon herself to demonstrate to the youth how to sew with the hide she had tanned herself a few months ago. We can’t wait to see the amazing things that she does moving forward!! Please help us in giving her a huge shout out! Congratulations Carley!

It is officially launched! Rewild Your Workflow has been months in the works and builds off of the success of Agile Willow: Managing Healthy Project Ecosystems course that we’ve run over the past two years.

Rewild Your Workflow is designed for ethical, community-driven and culturally relevant projects
made by-in-and-for the North. It draws on wisdom from the Land, Dene teachings of well-being and best practices in agile project management. It challenges organizations to both learn from and care for the Land as part of their daily workflow. I.e. “How do fireweed’s regenerative properties guide us to reflect after a perceived failure?”, “Transcending metaphor how can we help fireweed to propagate on the Land?” And “What are the many ways that fireweed medicine keeps migraines at bay and skin healthy?” Rewild Your Workflow will literally keep your team and the Land healthy while also learning how to refine your workflow to thrive the way the medicines do on the Land.

We are not separate from the Land, we are part of it. Once we realize that, our workplace and our health will improve. Email info@evergoodmedicine.com to register your company/organization to be part of the Fall 2025 cohort. We are only accepting 5 organizations. Registration closes on September 26, 2025 at 5pm MST

This summer up in the Sahtú reminded me again how to slow down even more than usual. When there’s not much to DO, you remember how to just BE! You keep yourself busy with things that sustain you like cooking, gathering plants, walking with family and learning from your Elders. Away from the distractions of city life, you don’t feel the pressure to always be on or running from one thing to the next.

This is a reminder for everyone to take a deep nourishing breath and if you’ve never felt this kind of peace before, maybe you just need to book a trip to come up North! There’s a medicine to the Land up here that makes you feel like everything will be alright, and that’s a feeling I hope everyone can know at some point in their life!

This summer we travelled across three communities in the Sahtú. 5 weeks in Deline, 2 weeks in Tulita and this final week in Fort Good Hope. We’re calling it the Sah-tour. So many memories and learning moments!

We were blown away this week having 9-10 Elders join us ever day here in Fort Good Hope, sharing stories, their language and their incredible laughter. Both us and the youth felt privileged to be in their presence over these past 6 days. We learned how to make and set string rabbit snares, Wilfred caught a rabbit and taught us how to butcher it, make stew and dry the skin. We heard stories of rabbit skin clothing and blankets and had the treat of cutting up and cooking Coney and Whitefish in filets, dry fish and the whole fish cooked right on the fire. We learned many new medicines; different ways to use ones we already knew and heard many stories of how our traditional medicines cured many diseases, injuries and sicknesses and even kept people living until 106 years old. Our traditional way of life is beautiful, rich and awe-inspiring! We are so grateful to the Elders, Wilfred, Lucy, Paula, Margaret, Vicky, John, Joe, Ernest, Michel and several others who stopped by. To the youth, Zari, Charity, Isibelle, Valerie and Nevaeh- you were kind, studious and so much fun! We hope to work with you all again in the future!

Finally, a big Máhsi Cho to Bianca and Tommy!! None of this would have been possible without the two of you and your commitment to the Elders and youth. Until next time!
