Traditional healing methods and teachings are at the center of Indigenous wellbeing. They can support Indigenous people diagnosed with cancer. Linda shares her story of being both a traditional practitioner and overcoming a cancer diagnosis. She knows the manner in which difficult news such as a cancer diagnosis is delivered matters, and reminds us to use approaches congruent with Indigenous lifeways.
