Terese Marie Mailhot discusses her memoir Heart Berries. Told through a collection of personal essays, she details her coming of age on the Seabird Island First Nation in the Pacific Northwest. She writes about surviving a dysfunctional upbringing only to find herself facing a dual diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder and bipolar II disorder. For Mailhot, writing became a means of discovering her true voice and taking control of her story. This segment is guest hosted by DW Gibson.
