Welcome to the Cultural Humility Podcast Series presented by Indigenous Vision!
This week Souta Calling Last (Executive Director & Trainer) and Melissa Spence (Producer & Trainer) are joined by Lea Wetzel who was a part of our most recent Cultural Humility March 2022 Cohort. Lea is an Indigenous Blackfoot woman who is using her life experiences to help others heal and find the support they need to live better. Lea is the VP at North Central Montana Human Trafficking and MMIP Task-Force, a Drop-in Center Coordinator/Trainer/Indigenous Recovery support at Montana's Peer Network among many other things.
The Cultural Humility model provides a method to advocate and maintain accountability by redressing the power imbalances in our communities. For over two decades, the model has replaced the insufficient notion of “cultural competence” with a cyclical approach that embraces critical self-reflection as a lifelong learning process to create a broader, more inclusive view of the world.

The Cultural Humility model is sourced from a Train the Trainers session taught by Dr. Melanie Tervalon and Dr. Jann Murray-Garcia, along with their published article:
