These episodes are an honest glimpse into my personal journey, the things I’m reflecting on, and the lessons I’m learning behind the scenes.In this session, I take a trip down memory lane to 2016, the year I truly committed to the path of growth.

But as I’ve come to learn, growth isn’t always about adding – sometimes it’s about challenging what you once valued.We explore:✨ The beginning of my personal development journey✨ The impact of committing to change✨ Letting go of identities and labels to evolve✨ How growth shows up in different seasons of life✨ An invitation to reflect on the season you're inThis kōrero is a reminder that transformation is ongoing, and that every season has its purpose.
