About Clorinda Young

Bear Wisdom Consulting

As a Métis woman, I have spent my life walking between two worlds. Honouring Indigenous ways of knowing while navigating institutional systems is part of who I am. It guides how I build relationships, share knowledge, and approach my work.

My spirit animal is the Bear. The Bear is a powerful helper who carries teachings of healing, courage, and strength. The sacred teaching of Wisdom guides my path, reminding me of the responsibility to carry knowledge with care and use it in service of others.

As a Métis facilitator, cultural advisor, and consultant, I create opportunities for people, teams, and communities to come together in ways that strengthen understanding, restore relationships, and support meaningful change.

Throughout my career, I have walked alongside individuals, teams, and communities during times of change, conflict, and growth. I bring a steady presence that helps people navigate complexity, strengthen relationships, and engage in honest conversations that lead to understanding.

I see my role as a bridge between worldviews. Whether facilitating restorative circles, supporting Indigenous engagement, or advising on programs and initiatives, I help organizations build relationships, strengthen cultural safety, and move forward with clarity and respect.
