A Mohawk's journey to understanding what success truly is

The greatest lesson Waneek Horn-Miller ever learned was that anything is possible. After being stabbed at the age of fourteen during the Oka Crisis, she could have given up. Instead, drawing on her mother's strength and the wisdom of her elders, Horn-Miller embraced life like never before, eventually winning a gold medal at the 1999 Pan Am Games and competing at the Olympic Games in Sydney. A model of perseverance, good-natured humour and wisdom, Horn-Miller inspires people to follow their own dreams, fight for their heritage, and achieve their full potential even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Drawing on Horn-Miller's own story, the wisdom of her elders and the community that helped her along the way, Seeking Peace is an incredible, moving and often counterintuitive guide to reaching new heights and truly embracing who we are.

Autoren-Porträt von Waneek Horn-Miller

WANEEK HORN-MILLER is a speaker, an advocate, an entrepreneur and an Olympic athlete. A Mohawk from the Kahnawake Mohawk territory, Waneek was behind the lines during the Oka crisis in 1990 when she was stabbed by a Canadian soldier. She was fourteen years old. The near-death experience was a turning point in her life, and she used the incident to fuel her dreams of competing at the Olympic Games. After winning a gold medal at the Pan Am Games in 1999, she co-captained Canada's water polo team, which finished fifth at the Sydney Olympics in 2000. Horn-Miller worked closely with the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls inquiry and is an advocate for building Indigenous sport with the Assembly of First Nations. She also works with Manitobah Mukluks, where she is director of the Storyboot Project. A graduate of Carleton University, Waneek Horn-Miller lives in Ottawa with her husband and three kids.
