About this listen

Walk Bidi Katitijiny (the pathway of knowledge) with Narelle Ogilvie as she reflects on balancing Noongar and Western worlds, listening deeply to Elders, and the power of patience and respect in cultural learning. Discover how workshops at the Bidi Kaatajiny Centre brought together generations – young, old and even the animals – for truth-telling, sharing stories, laughter and belonging. Through placenames like Margamangup (place where they catch fish by hand from a fish trap), Narelle uncovers indigenous traditions and reconnects to family, Country and culture. She closes by sharing a heartfelt poem about her own link as a grandmother, reminding us that cultural strength lives on through connection, love and storytelling by the riverbanks.
