Summary:

This case study aims to lower the entry barrier to Indigenous methodologies for anyone wholeheartedly committed to contributing to the decolonizing processes of Indigenous communities and beyond. The case study highlights the main challenges experienced by the first author during her doctoral journey and how she dealt with such challenges. Four themes were identified: (1) the colonial gaze, (2) battling with the concept of authenticity, (3) recognizing Indigeneity in the ordinary, and (4) reconciling with the past to pave the way toward a better future. Moreover, we employ the case study to offer a vision of a more inclusive Indigenous form of inquiry. In our view, it is of vital importance to promote reconnection, reclaiming, and sovereignty as means of establishing an ethical space between Indigenous ways of knowing and the knowledge systems still dominating most academic disciplines.
