Dr. Lee Brown on truth, family, healing & culture and the path forward
Some knowledge can only be carried by those who have lived it, studied it, and devoted a lifetime to passing it on.
Dr. Lee Brown is one of those rare voices.
A member of the Cherokee Nation and the Wolf Clan, Dr. Brown has spent decades at the intersection of Indigenous wisdom and academic excellence — as former Director of the UBC Institute of Aboriginal Health, as former coordinator of UBC's Indigenous Doctoral Program, and as co-author of The Sacred Tree, a foundational curriculum rooted in Aboriginal values and ways of knowing. For nearly forty years, he has walked alongside healers and communities at the Round Lake Native Healing Centre in Vernon, BC — not as an outside expert, but as a cultural resource and guide.
Wednesday, May 27, he sits down with Sundance Chief Rueben George for a conversation that goes to the heart of what it means to be well — as individuals, as families, as nations.
At Thrive, we don't simply acknowledge Indigenous wisdom — we have structured ourselves around it. Not because we have all the answers, but because we believe the conversations that matter most are the ones we have together. In these uncertain times, that's exactly what we're committed to: showing up, listening deeply, and walking forward — together.
