About Myrna
Slowing down to listen with intention.
Myrna is currently working on her first book, continuing her mission to bridge Indigenous worldviews with contemporary legal practice.
Myrna McCallum is a Métis lawyer from the northern village of Green Lake in Treaty Six territory whose work is reshaping how the legal profession understands justice, humanity, and responsibility.
As a speaker, educator, and host of The Trauma-Informed Lawyer podcast, she invites legal professionals to slow down, listen with intention, and recognize the human beings at the centre of every legal process.
Through educational events like LoveBack: An Indigenous Only Professional Development Retreat, the Transform Your Practice Leadership Retreat, the Trauma-Informed Justice Course, and the Justice as Trauma Summit, McCallum has cultivated spaces where judges, lawyers, leaders, and Indigenous professionals can reflect, unlearn, and approach their roles with deeper humility and care.
"Leadership, justice and healing can be both accountable and compassionate when grounded in relationships, responsibility, and shared humanity."
