Indigenous storytelling is characteristically self-reflective and shares history with next generations. It has the belief that when we share a story and something resonates with another person, their spirit is connected to that story. They are able to relate directly to the story without having witnessed the events via DNA, and they know it to be true.

In today’s world one can effectively share their story through a podcast. Join Elia Morrison, guest-teacher Dawn Matheson and guest-speaker Mary Joanne Schuller in this four-part workshop series breaking down the basics of creating a podcast and using it to tell your own story. This series consists of both instruction and discussion. It will explore the conceptual aspects of idea formulation; digging deep for a story and telling it to resonate and connect with someone else. It will also cover the technical aspect of podcasting. Participants will learn about recording a podcast with devices as simple as using a mobile phone as well as using more advanced recording equipment.  Participants will also learn about the ways one can edit a podcast and finally how to upload your own podcast for a listening audience.
