- “Compassionate, curious, keep coming back!” (Myrna McCallum, JAT 2025)
Myrna is a master educator in the ‘trauma-informed’ arena! I have been working in the fields of education and mental health for over two decades and have not found as prominent a speaker and authentic human looking to make real change for humans who need healing and who do this hard work. Her keynote at the end of the latest episode (S3 E21) says it all: “if it doesn’t feel emotional then you’re not really doing it.” ~ Myrna calls on all of us to commit to understanding trauma from the inside ou... more

Canadaa year ago - Insightful, Engaging, Healing
My law professor, Dr. Andrea Menard, introduced my class to your podcast. It is absolutely phenomenal. In fact, I wrote my final paper based on your podcast. You do an excellent job of engaging your audience with knowledgeable speakers, excellent voice and delivery, and unique topic areas. Please keep this work going because it is invaluable.
Ps. My favourite podcast was the Emotional Intelligence and the Art of Living with Dr. amar Dhall.
Apple Podcasts5ImreallyhungryCanada2 years ago - Kisakihitin nitanis: Truth and Reconciliation Day 2023
Thank you for sharing your story about your mother, Judy. Always wondered how she left us. Can relate to her with the residential school experience and how it affects our relationship with our children. The most difficult job is to work on oneself so, my prayer is that my stubborn attitude doesn’t follow me to my grave.
Apple Podcasts5Saulteaux/CreeCanada3 years ago - A strong indigenous woman deconstructs cozy canadian culture.
I listened to the Safety Denied podcast this week and the conversation between Dan and Myrna deepened my understanding of the systemic way indigenous people, especially women, are conditioned to live in a state of fear due to Canadian institutions that devalue their safety and lives when compared to their white counterparts. Listening to this podcast made me realize, as a white woman living in Canada, how the mainstream media silences the real lived experiences of indigenous women with a cozy n... more
Apple Podcasts5skoerberCanada3 years ago - Informative and essential learning
I have been listening to Myrna’s podcast for several months. I am learning so much - about trauma, what it means to be trauma-informed, and most importantly about my own heritage of white privilege and the impact on our indigenous culture and people. It is both heart-breaking and humbling. Thank you, Myrna, for opening my eyes and my heart. I am not sure what to do but, before action, learn. I’m learning. And listening.
