Hari Tau Hou Pakeha e te whanau ✨
Wishing you all a calm, grounded and nourishing start to the year ahead.

Recently, I was honoured to be part of a one-day wananga collaboration alongside some beautiful people and kaupapa. The day wove matauranga Maori, creativity and lived experience into one shared space.

🌿 Seeing the world through Rongoa – a Maori worldview
🌿 Taonga Takaro with Nathan Waitai
🌿 Raranga with Whaea Aroha Puketapu, guided by Hine-te-iwaiwa

Our tauira included rangatahi, kaimahi from Porirua and Wairarapa, and kaiako from around Te Awakairangi. It was a powerful day of learning, sharing and reconnecting with who we are and where we come from.

This is the heart of my mahi. I create and hold wananga that are shaped around the kaupapa and the people in the room — whether that is a one-day space or a longer journey alongside whanau. I work in collaboration with others, always from a Maori worldview, supporting organisations and whanau to reconnect, strengthen and move forward in ways that feel tika for them.

If this kaupapa speaks to you or your whanau, feel free to reach out:

✨ Week 12 for our Mana Wāhine ✨🥺

What a beautiful journey this has been. The shifts, the transitions, the deep kōrero, the healing, the laughter, the tears, the beautiful connections and growth!

I’m so proud of you all. I’m so proud of the relationships you have created and the aroha you have shown not only to yourselves, but to each other. 💛

Thank you for showing up fully every week, for trusting in the process, for trusting in me and my beautiful pou, and for trusting in each other. Thank you for your honesty, your courage, and your wairua.

This is not the end, but the beginning of something even bigger! Stick together, grow together, learn together — Carry the mana of everything you’ve discovered within yourselves, and let it guide you forward🌬

Ngā mihi aroha nui ki a koutou🌿✨

Mā te kotahitanga e whai kaha ai tātou🦋

Mana Wahine ✨

Week 11 of Waiatea Te Korowai Tapu, the Wahine are rising! What a powerful journey this has been to witness.

We began with planting many seeds through Purakau that helped us identify ourselves in our Atua, in our whakapapa, in who we are, and in the sacredness of being Wahine. The Whare Tangata, the Divine Portal of Life, reminded us of the Tapu we must protect🙏

From there, we armed ourselves with tools to shield, to whakawaatea, to navigate shifts, to enhance awareness and to see the world with our Atua in it, through a Tuturu Maori worldview. At every step, Tikanga stood strong, woven into every teaching, every korero and every practice.

Through Rongoa Maori, the ancient healing practices of our Tupuna, we have watched these seeds take root. These Wahine have not only learned to make Rongoa — they have learned to live and walk with it. THIS IS MANA MOTUHAKE IN ACTION 🌀☄️

We are fierce believers in Tika and Pono. We are fierce believers that Rongoa must be carried in the right way — with wairua, with aroha, with integrity!

To our Mana Wahine, you are the healers for your whakapapa✨

To our Pou, who stood firm, protected, and lifted the mauri of this kaupapa — there are no words big enough for my aroha🙏🥺🦋

🌿 Ko te Rongoa, he taonga tuku iho nō ngā tupuna, hei oranga mō te tinana, te hinengaro, te wairua 🌿

He rā nui mō te Kaitiakitanga i tēnei rā 🌿

The Tataramoa had crept across the ara, overgrown and entangling the path and other rakau— a tohu that mahi was needed. Today, our wahine stepped forward with intention.

Through this mahi, our Atua responded — gifting taonga, not just for them, but for the healing of their whanau and hāpori.

Mauri ora, wahine mā🌀🥰
He tohu, he taonga, he mana!

15/07/2025

Over the past six weeks, we’ve been planting seeds🌱 exploring the layers of whakapapa and learning to see ourselves, each other, and the world through the lens of Mātauranga Māori.

This week, our wahine begin learning the art of protection: weaving spiritual korowai, and practising whakawātea🌊 tools that help us stay grounded, safe, and in alignment.

Waiatea Te Korowai Tapu is a foundational rongoā wānanga that reconnects you with Te Taiao and equips you with practical tools to navigate your own wairua and reset your energy when needed.

You will learn to recognise and regulate your own Mauri🌪 To protect it, strengthen it, and hold it with intention. To discern between your energy and that of others, to identify unsafe patterns or influences, and to stand firmly in your own Tapu.

Most importantly, this wānanga teaches you to embody Tikanga!🔥 To carry it with you in every space, not as something performed, but as a natural expression of your wairua, whakapapa, and purpose.

Ko te kai a te Rangatira, he kōrero. Ko te Rongoā mō te wairua, ko te oranga o te Tikanga🌀☄️
