This week we have an extraordinary guest, Samantha Powderhorn. From Tadoule Lake, a remote Indigenous community, Samantha's journey is one of resilience and transformation. As a full-time working mom of 6, Samantha has faced more challenges than most can imagine. She's a MMIW survivor, thyroid cancer warrior, and has overcome immense trauma and abuse. She once sought love and validation from a life marred by her parents' alcoholism and neglect. But Samantha found the love she truly needed in the most powerful place: within herself. Quitting alcohol and embracing running, Samantha has become an avid marathon runner, proving that strength and self-love can conquer all. Tune in to hear Samantha's inspiring story of perseverance, healing, and the incredible power of self-love.
