Episode notes
Keep Moving When You Mess Up
- During early performances Gary was told "don't stop" because continuing hides mistakes.
- He learned to improvise onstage and treat errors as opportunities to adapt.
Trauma Creates Risk Aversion
- Historical trauma breeds fear and hesitancy to break norms in Native communities.
- That fear makes leadership and pioneering much harder despite necessity.
Be The One You Wait For
- Own the responsibility to act rather than waiting for external saviors.
- Be independent, stand alone when necessary, and lead by example for your community.
