In this video, we continue our journey toward creating a healthier culture — Wicozani Waste — for ourselves and for the Oyate. A culture where conditions like diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and cancer no longer define our future.
One of the biggest challenges in making healthy changes is trying to do too much, too fast. We push hard, get overwhelmed, slip up, and then start to believe we’ve failed. But slip‑ups are not failure — quitting is.
Today’s conversation is about something just as important as food or movement: forgiveness.
In our language, forgiveness is Ah‑kee‑chee‑k‑tunza. Learning to practice this — especially toward ourselves — is how we stay on the path when things don’t go perfectly. Mistakes are part of the journey. They are opportunities to learn, grow, and build resilience.
Last week, we shared our successes.This week, we’re doing something different.
👇 Join the conversation below: Share a healthy change you tried that didn’t stick. Tell us how it made you feel and what you did next. If you quit at some point in the past, share that too — the fact that you’re here now means you didn’t really quit. You just needed time, and now you’re back.
Be open. Be honest. Be encouraging.This is how we heal — together.
Be sure to come back next week as we keep building this culture, one step at a time.
