I never stopped wanting to eat the berries 🍓 That’s why I wrote Hasi Čhigǫ:yǫ (Sweet Berry)—a children’s book in the Yesáh language to help our babies (& inner kids) feel seen, heard, & powerful in their joy and culture. Wanna read it or gift it? It’s waiting for you at ddayehunter.com/shop.

🌱 “These stories and poems got MY ancestors excited.” — Butterfly

From ancestral healing to collective liberation, your words remind me why I wrote Seeds in the first place.
