Workbook
Indigenous and Away From Home
Navigating Identity When Your Land Is Your Belonging and You Cannot Get Back to It
This workbook builds a documented Indigenous identity for the person living away from the land that grounds it.
For the Indigenous person — Native American, First Nations, Aboriginal, Māori, or any Indigenous community — living away from their land, their community, their language. For the person whose identity is rooted in place, kinship, and ceremony, and who is navigating a world that has no guide for what belonging means when you are separated from all three.
The Name It First Experience
Your identity is rooted in land, kinship, and ceremony — and you are not standing in any of them. Indigenous and Away From Home maps the specific terrain of carrying an Indigenous identity in diaspora — away from the land, the community, and the language that are the source — and builds the documented navigation that names who you are here, in the place you actually live, without requiring you to be in a place you cannot reach. This workbook is for the Native American, First Nations, Aboriginal, Maori, or any Indigenous person living away from their community who needs a way to hold and name their identity in the world they are actually navigating. Navigating Identity When Your Land Is Your Belonging and You Cannot Get Back to It is the workbook for that navigation.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What has being away from your land and community cost you that someone outside your experience would not immediately understand?
- What do you carry with you that connects you to home even when the physical distance is greatest?
- What would belonging look like for you in the place where you are — and have you let yourself imagine it?
