December comes with expectations.
Not everyone meets them.

This is for anyone moving through the end of the year
without joy, energy, or answers.

Move gently.
That is enough for now.

I want to tell you something I wish someone had told me earlier: joy is not a luxury, it’s survival.

When life is heavy and you’re carrying a lot, feeling content, proud, or happy isn’t something you need to justify. It doesn’t mean you’re ignoring reality or being selfish. It means you’re giving your mauri a reason to stay steady.

If something brings you joy, protect it. Guard your peace. Let yourself enjoy the small moments without rushing past them or minimizing them. You don’t have to be exhausted or overwhelmed to deserve happiness.

Joy doesn't need to be earned.

Puāwai was created for the seasons when joy feels distant, fragile, or hard to prioritise. It’s about reconnecting with your mana and remembering that pleasure, confidence, and light belong in your life too.

If you’re wanting support to invite joy back in, comment mana and I’ll send you the link to explore Puāwai whakatauki and affirmation set.

If you’re doing last-minute Christmas shopping and want gifts that actually mean something, then you should go to the Whatucreative pop up store.

Our hauora resources will be available at a pop-up store in West Auckland, making it easy to shop locally and pick up something thoughtful without the stress of shipping cut-offs. These are gifts for the people who carry a lot, parents, helpers, quiet leaders, or the ones who never ask for anything.

I’ve always loved giving gifts that offer care, reflection, and support long after Christmas Day. Something that says, I see you, without needing a long explanation.

If you’re nearby and still searching for a meaningful Christmas gift, come and have a look. Sometimes the right gift isn’t about having more — it’s about feeling held.

If you like to see, touch, and feel a gift before you buy it, this one’s for you.

is having a pop up store at their headquarters in West Auckland. 5 mihini road henderson. 18th, 19thn 22nd and 23rd. 10am to 6pm.

So lucky to have my rauemi there along the most amazing Māori pakihi.

Our hauora resources will be available at the pop-up store, so you can take your time, flip through the cards, and choose something that feels right, even if you’re shopping close to Christmas. No rush delivery. No guessing from a screen.

These are gifts made for quiet moments, real life, and the people you want to care for which includes yourself.

If you’re nearby, come and have a look. Sometimes the right gift is the one that settles in your hands.

Hinemoana reminds us that turbulence is not failure, it’s movement. Emotions rise, waves crash, and still the ocean settles again. This is a reminder that your emotions, thoughts, mauri is allowed to move through intensity without being stuck there.

The Hinatore mana wāhine affirmation pack was created to support emotional regulation, resilience, and returning to steadiness, while drawing inspiration and connection to our atua wahine, especially for those moments when feelings feel big and relentless. These affirmations are not about suppressing emotion, but about trusting your ability to come back to yourself.

If you’d like to explore the Hinatore mana wahine affirmation set and its grounding practices, comment light and I’ll send you the link.

Whakaora was created because words alone aren’t always enough.
Yes, these are whakataukī but they don’t stop there.

Each card carries the whakataukī, an English translation, a deeper meaning, and a practical skill to help you live the words, not just read them. This is about turning wisdom into action. Turning language into care. Turning reflection into a way of supporting your hauora, day by day.

I wanted these cards to help the kupu come alive, to move from your mind into your breath, your choices, your responses. Small, repeatable skills that support regulation, grounding, and inner steadiness, especially when life feels heavy or loud.

They can be used along, in your whanau or with your team.

This is whakataukī as a living practice.
Not inspiration for the shelf but support for real moments.

If you want to explore Whakaora, comment ORA and I’ll send you the link.
