Shelley Price

Shelley is an Inuk woman born in the NunatuKavut region of Labrador. She currently resides in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq. Shelley’s work calls for trauma-informed and culturally humble approaches to leadership with keen interest on the intersecting injustices between race, gender, mental health, and the environment. She works with Indigenous storytelling, collective, affective, and land-based wisdom. She explores the multiplicities of meanings in the intercedes of the calls for sustainable, just, diverse, equitable, inclusive, safe, and healthy ways of being, doing, knowing, and relating to self, family, community, nature, and the cosmos. She is guided by her ancestors' teachings of love, compassion, gratitude, respect, connection, and resistance. She believes that our efforts today will honour our ancestors and protect the future generations. Part of Shelley's self care practice is playing piano, blasting her metal music, walking outdoors in bare feet (yup in winter too), playing with her cats, and spending every possible minute with her son.
