Along with her co-host Tanya Innaarulik and guest co-hosts Christopher McCarron and Laurel Sprengelmeyer, Beatrice talks to Deseray about finding purpose, surviving grief, and how 'healed people heal people'. Tanya and Beatrice share their sobriety stories, and we learn about why Inuit Games are "all about survival”, and why all the cool kids are sober. {new paragraph} You can also watch the filmed version of this podcast here!
