-In Europe, Crowther continues to claim descent resp. membership in indigenous nations and still employs the legend of her mother being a Salish-Sioux. Her assumed name of "Little Grandmother" sometimes also gets mentioned in Lakota language, as e.g. in a promotional article dated 2014, in which this gets rendered as "Ci'kala Uci'".ref>luxcoaching.eu/botschaft-der-kleinen-grossmutter-kiesha-crowther/ </ref> Other claims contend Crowther was a member of one "Continental Council of Indigenous Elders" resp. was recognized by said council as a "shaman". The council, however, is a Newage association of plastic shamans.<ref>http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=3095.5 </ref>

Further, she engages in the [[2012]] hype and other New-Age esoterics. Background checks revealed neither she nor any of her ancestors are known in the Salish community where she claims to have her roots. She even suggests in one video that she is the reincarnated White Buffalo Calf Woman of Lakota spirituality, a claim sure to outrage the Lakota nation who hold the prophecy sacred.

At least temporarily, the account of her alleged initiation as a shaman had disappeared from her website, but is again availalbe in a different section of her web presence. According to this representation, Crowther claims to have been informed per phone call by an indigenous elder by the name of "Falling Feather" about her being a shaman and to have received the mission of founding a "Tribe of Many Colours".<ref>http://littlegrandmother.net/tribe-2/ </ref>
 Her actions and claims are not welcome to the Native American community. The Salish Elders issued a statement as follows:
