What if I told you there will never be enough doctors — and Māori wāhine will continue to get the short end of the stick.

The truth is, the system was never built with us at the centre.

And I refuse to be a doctor working inside a broken system without trying to create something better.

That is why my focus is now Hine Health.

A safe space for wāhine Māori to come together, wānanga, heal, learn about our bodies, reconnect to our mātauranga, and find our own solutions to keeping ourselves and our whānau healthy — with the assistance of specialist care, medical knowledge, and culturally safe support.

This is not just about medicine.This is about prevention.This is about knowledge.This is about mana motuhake.

Mai wahine mo wahine na wahine

Because nobody understands our stories, our struggles, our strength, and our whakapapa the way we do.

Hine Health is only the beginning. 🌿

Kia ora tātou katoa,

Mai Health is proud to be supporting the Hine Health initiative, offering five wāhine the opportunity to receive Wegovy over a 12-month period.

If you attended the Hine Health hui at Tauteihiihi marae on Saturday 2nd of May and are interested, simply text your name and the words “Hine Health” to 8700, and we’ll guide you through a process to determine whether this programme is suitable for you.

Wegovy (semaglutide) is generally safe for most people. However, it is not suitable if you are pregnant, have significant kidney problems, a history of acute pancreatitis, or an allergy to semaglutide. We’re very happy to discuss this with you as part of the assessment process.

If more than five women express interest, participants will be selected by random draw, and the successful wāhine will be announced.

All participants will receive support throughout the 12 months, including guidance on lifestyle changes to help optimise weight loss and overall wellbeing.

We’re really excited to be part of this kaupapa and to support the health and wellbeing of our wāhine.

Ngā mihi nui.

Kia ora e te whānau ✨

As mentioned from our Hine Health wānanga, here is the link to my morning mindset sessions!

We jump on Zoom every weekday at 6:30am — honestly one of the best ways to start your day grounded, focused, and filling your cup first.

What we do together:
🌿 Open with karakia
🌿 Positive affirmations
🌿 I read from a personal development book
🌿 Optional gratitude round (you’re welcome to just listen)

No pressure at all, camera can be off, come as you are, even if you’re still in bed or on the go. This is a safe, supportive space to pour into your hinengaro before the day begins 🤍

If you’ve been feeling the call to do something for you this is it.

👇🏽 Join us here:

Bring your cuppa, bring your energy, or just bring yourself… I’d love to have you in the space 💛
