Listen "Gwiingwiishi"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this episode of When the Frogs Sleep, we talk about Gwiingwiishi — the whiskey jack, and the lessons it carries about humility, connection, and coming home to ceremony. Through conversations on feasting, cultural renewal, and being Two-Spirit, we explore what it means to listen when teachings arrive in unexpected ways.We close with a bedtime story inspired by Niigaan Sinclair’s article, “Anishinaabe stories about the mischievous, wise gray jay” (Canadian Geographic), reminding us that Gwiingwiishi’s trickster ways often reveal deeper truths about relationship, laughter, and moving in a good way.
