I’m Laura Tendler, a keynote speaker, recovery advocate, and proud Indigenous woman who has overcome generational trauma and addiction to break cycles and build a life of purpose.
Now, I’m passionate about empowering others to heal, grow, and transform, showing that it’s never too late to change the narrative of your story.
Born and raised in a small Saskatchewan town, I come from a proud lineage rooted in Kahkewistahaw First Nation. My story is shaped by the generational impacts of trauma, loss, and survival. Growing up, I struggled with feelings of isolation and disconnection, both from my caregivers and from myself, and I battled anxiety long before anyone knew how to recognize or name it.
Empowering individuals and organizations to heal, grow, and thrive, Laura Tendler delivers impactful keynotes that inspire resilience, cultural healing, and personal transformation. From breaking cycles of generational trauma to leading with empathy and compassion, Laura’s storytelling and actionable insights connect deeply with diverse audiences.
