What happens when Indigenous women stop waiting for permission?
In this episode of Gaia Gossip, Mary Jane Oatman sits down with Kristi Carranco-Kem of DOPE CFO to explore women’s leadership rooted in responsibility, relationship, and action.
From following your dreams and creating opportunities for future generations to hemp advocacy, community leadership, and bringing Indigenous voices to Capitol Hill, Kristi reminds us that leadership is about lifting our voices, being true to ourselves and honoring those that come before to make paths for those that come after us.
“When Indigenous women stop waiting for permission, we change our communities and we change the world.”- Kristi Carranco-Kem
