E70 - Zachary Manywounds, Tsuut’ina Nation resident
“ I have to consistently be strong and carry my beliefs and know that what I’m doing is far beyond this lifetime. It’s not meant for right now. It’s meant for the longevity of my community.”
Zachary shares his story of growing up ‘inside the walls’ of the Tsuut’ina Nation. As an Indigenous youth, his father let him know he would have to work twice as hard as anyone else to prove himself. While some might see this as a defeat, Zachary saw it as a challenge he could rise up to meet. Fuelled by the love of his land, a desire to collaborate with the communities around Tsuut’ina, and a refreshing perspective on what really matters in life, Zachary’s story will inspire you to rise up to meet any challenge in your own life.
