This morning, our team had the privilege of virtually participating in a Mental Health Morning event organized by St. Joseph’s Healthcare Foundation. As we gathered from our respective locations, we were treated to a delightful breakfast spread from Tikas Catering, setting a warm and inviting tone for the day ahead. The highlight of the event was undoubtedly the keynote address delivered by Jesse Thistle, a remarkable Métis-Cree Author, Poet, and Scholar. Jesse captivated us with his inspiring journey, sharing deeply personal insights on overcoming adversity and finding one’s path to healing and purpose.
Jesse’s story resonated deeply with everyone present, reminding us of the importance of mental health awareness and the power of storytelling in fostering understanding and empathy. His words were a poignant reminder that each of us is on a unique journey, and that it is through compassion and support that we can truly make a difference in the lives of others. We are grateful to St. Joseph’s Healthcare Foundation for organizing such a meaningful event and to Tikas Catering for the delicious breakfast.
