Our Path to Healing Begins with Storytelling.
Meku:!
I’m Dominique
Daye Hunter.
I’m an Author, Storyteller, Artist,
Healing Justice Consultant,
and Cultural Strategist.
As an Afro-Indigenous disabled, neurodivergent woman, I help those in these intersections connect with their roots and reclaim their voice after generations of being silenced, erased, and misrepresented so they can heal, lead, and thrive powerfully with purpose across generations.
As a Certified DEI Specialist, I help impact-driven organizations align their actions with their values by understanding the intersections of Black and Indigenous experiences to
build trust, reduce harm, and drive inclusive and equitable outcomes around social and environmental justice.
Guided by mindfulness,
lived experience,
and trauma-informed practice, I create safe, fourth spaces where breath, ancestral wisdom, and resilience are woven into every collaboration.
A red-dirt path lined by cedar trees evokes calm, ancestral grounding, and direction.
Shining my light, but not afraid of the dark.

“Sweet Memories, Indigenous Futures: Land & Ecological Knowledge Access” Presentation
September 5th
Land Trust Alliance
Rally Conference
Cleveland, OH
Dominique will share insights from her recent children’s book Hasi Čhigǫ:yǫ (Sweet Berry) and related berry-picking outings on Native and non-Native stewarded land.
Findings include the use of informal access agreements as well as qualitative and quantitative research that explores how the book supports both children and adults in learning Yesa:sahį, traditional berry-picking practices, and increasing cultural confidence and self-esteem tied to mental health.
