Thank you, UKIHCA, for the recognition. We’re proud to support community-led, culturally responsive prevention alongside our partners ProCare, Pasifika Futures and Mahitahi Hauora.

UKIHCA is delighted to share and celebrate the groundbreaking outreach work of PREKURE, a provider of one of UKIHCA’s Approved Health Coach Training Programmes.

PREKURE’s outreach programmes are grounded in a simple reality: lasting health change does not start in hospitals - it starts with people, their environments, and the systems that support them.

Through partnerships with ProCare, Pasifika Futures and Mahitahi Hauora, these programmes focus on strengthening the frontline workforce serving Māori, Pasifika and high-need communities. They are designed to embed prevention, behaviour change and culturally responsive health coaching directly into primary care and community settings, where trust, relationships and continuity of care already exist.

How are your resolutions going?

I didn't love the first 6 months of working full-time with my husband.

I love my husband, and I love being a CEO and co-founder.

Today marks 30 years of marriage and 10 months of working closely together.

I found the first 6 months after Grant Schofield joined PREKURE full-time hard.

We spent every waking moment together. PREKURE dominated every conversation at home. No downtime. No separation.

I was worried we'd made a mistake.

Here are 3 things I've learnt:

𝟭. 𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘀

Working together sounded romantic.
The reality? It can be too much.

Every dinner conversation was PREKURE. Every walk was PREKURE. Every thought was PREKURE.

After a few months, Grant dropped to .8 FTE and entered the NZ Ironman. Good for him and good for me.

Space made us stronger. Which led to the second lesson:

𝟮. 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿

Many couples lower their standards to keep the peace.
That was never going to work for us.

We don't accept mediocrity from ourselves, so why would we accept it from each other?

Push each other to be better. That's our brand of love.

But high standards only work when you're working with a shared purpose and going with the grain, not against it.

𝟯. 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝘀

We've stopped trying to make each other into something we're not.

He's brilliant at deep research, challenging the status quo, and setting the bar very high.

I'm built to hold the vision, foster a strong team culture, put in the consistent effort, and be pragmatic.

Together we work.

You can't build a deep relationship when you're standing on top of each other.

I didn't love the first 6 months. But 10 months in? We're just getting started.

Most leaders default to giving instructions.

The problem? Instructions create compliance - not ownership, innovation, or change.

Gareth Holebrook breaks down intent-based leadership and the Navy story that shows why clarity of intent matters more than control. When leaders stop telling people exactly what to do and start setting the mission, performance changes fast.

This thinking sits at the heart of effective coaching, leadership, and behaviour change - in business, health, and teams.

AI models are now scoring 70% to almost 100% on final-year medical exams.

The pass mark for humans? 60%.

In this episode, Prof Grant Schofield, Kayla and Jackson unpack what that actually means - including the part most people miss: these results are from offline models with zero internet access. No Google. No browsing.

So if AI can outperform students in exam conditions… what happens in real clinical settings?
