Justina Moosenose joined Inspire NWT at a very busy time in her life, but she knew it was time to prioritize her learning in order to give back to her community.
Like many in her community, she was born into cycles and systems that did not promote her wellbeing. At the young age of 22, her wisdom in choosing a better life is beyond her years.

Her entrepreneurial vision is to create a similarly safe space to promote healing for others in her community, "It will be designed to help our people. There is so much knowledge, there is so much power, and if we stopped having a mindset of being divided from each other, we could benefit so much more."
