Introduction

The West is in a big time of transition, which necessarily includes our worldview as a collective. In this conversation with Four Arrows (Wahinkpe Topa) aka Dr. Don Trent Jacobs, we talk about the kinship or indigenous worldview in contrast to the dominant worldview, the impact of a binary vs a non-binary worldview, trance learning, and weaving indigenous wisdom into coaching.

Formerly Dean of Education at Oglala Lakota College and tenured Associate Professor at Northern Arizona University. With doctorates in health psychology and in Curriculum and Instruction (with a cognate in Indigenous Worldview) he has authored 21 books and numerous other publications relating to wellness, critical theory, education and Indigenous worldview.
