  • Take Your Meds Podcast Season 2: Episode 16 Featuring Tania Han and Peter Butler

    The final episode of Season Two looks a little different than the others. I sit down with two industry mavericks and thought leaders in community wellbeing and systems change to explore the new paradigm of leadership. If you're passionate about service, impact and contribution, and work in, with or for communities, this episode is going to supercharge your knowledge on leadership for systems change.


    In this episode we explore:


    - Systems change and the redistrubtion power 

    - Inequality and inequity 

    - What leadership for wellbeing looks like 

    - Biggest mistakes in leadership for systems change

    - Trends within systems change, wellbeing in communities and leadership

    - Navigating privilege and decentering individuals in organising for change


    One of my favourite quotes from this episode: "we need to move the power and resouce base away from beaurocratic, institutionalised siloed to whaanau and hapouri to control their own destiny" - Pete

    Tania Han

    Tania is an extroverted introvert and believer in the power of people. Although she is now an independent strategy and impact consultant, she started her career in banking for over a decade before running away to join the impact, startup and public sectors. As a leader, collaborator and mentor with an insatiable love for learning, deep thinking, getting things done and supporting others, Tania has spent the last few years seeking out and working with people and organisations making the world a better place. She is a parent to a toddler and an ally for climate justice, social equity and dismantling oppression.

    Peter Butler (Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Ngāti Kauwhata, Mōkai Pātea, Ngāti Paoa, Ngai Tai & Werehi)

    Of Māori and Welsh ancestry, Peter was brought up in the urban Māori environment of Highbury in Palmerston North, at a time when urban drift was at its peak. His close knit whānau suffered the loss kuia & koroua in the 1970s and ‘80s. This was a time of change and instability and the whānau lost much of its mātauranga of Te Ao Maori. In his adult years, he has striven to regain that knowledge.

    Peter has been involved within Youth and Community Development for the past twenty-eight years. He is currently the Kaihautū of the Highbury Whānau Centre, a unique organisation born from the desire of urban whānau to support their children. Passionately representing his community, he challenges civic leaders, decision makers, kaimahi and whānau to be creative and committed in the pursuit of equitable opportunities for our youth to develop and grow. He draws from the strength and legacy of his Tīpuna to constantly strive in the face of adversity, and the understanding of the need to ‘adapt or die’.

    Peter integrates social integrity with business know-how in his mahi. As a social entrepreneur, he promotes sustainability within the field of community development.

  • Season 2: Episode 12 Featuring Hellè Weston

    This episode is a big deal. I got to sit down and chat with my mentor who has supported me to reclaim my spiritual gifts, unlock new levels of creativity, and renegotiate the ways I show up in the world.

    Hellè Weston is an intuitive coach, mentor and founder of Owaken Breathwork. Her unique inside-out approach supports sensitive visionaries and creatives to increase their impact in the world by prioritising personal alignment and leading with intuition. 

    Originally from New Zealand, Hellè is now based between Australia & LA and leads sold-out live events around the world alongside working privately with high-profile changemakers and leading the online Intuitive Impact Mastermind. 

    In this episode we explore:
    - how to manifest something bigger than your circumstance 
    - calibrating the nervous system for visions and dreams 
    - how we can be afraid of being successful 
    - how to grow into calling into your dream partner
    - the power of the inner-work
    - the difference between your signals and cues from the body, thoughts and intuition
    - why we should examine what feels safe and comfortable
    - how to renegotiate your reality 
    - how we can be a willing participant with God 
    - finding reciprocity with nature
    - what the new paradigm of leadership looks like and sounds like
    - authentic leadership
    - potential and exploring new horizons
    - guidance for a 5 minute Breathwork practise

    One of my favourite golden nuggets: 

    "If we don't feel safe to bring something into our life, to attract it, create it, and be a part of it, the subconscious which includes the body, will find ways to push it away."

  • Season 2: Episode 10 featuring Maluseu Monise and Michael Moore

    Michael and Maluseu are two dear friends, and to sit down together and record this episode was such a gift. If you want to explore leadership through a lense you haven't before, this is for you.  Perhaps you've never considered yourself a leader, or perhaps you're curious about leadership, or re-imagining what it means for you. Let this be a conversation that opens up new possibilities and pathways for you to step deeper into the calling you have on your life for leadership. 

    Maluseu Monise is from Rotuma, and describes themselves as a Hanujuologist. They are the co-host of the The Far Queue podcast, which invites conversations about access to equity within the context of Aotearoa. Maluseu has a background in tertiary education, is currently completing their Masters and if you're from the Waikato, you've probably met this giant charismatic myth at an event of some kind, because they're always showing up in community to serve, contribute and leave a legacy.

    Michael Moore is a father, poet, story-teller and facilitator who brings a deep felt sense of aroha into every space he walks. He isn’t afraid to walk into the darkest of places, inside himself, and call forward parts of himself for integration and harmony, and supports men and boys to do the same.

    In this episode we explore:

    • What inner-leadership is all about
    • The distinctions between transformation, transferring, translating and transparency 
    • The three ways we can whakarongo
    • How your leadership is unlocked through your lived experience
    • How we need to decentre the teacher in education
    • What fear-based leadership looks like and sounds like
    • Inner alignment for creative expression
    • What we can learn from Hine-tiitama and  Hine-nui-te-poo
    • How to welcome healthy shame
    • What it means to be a hypocrite of your past
    • What we can find in the Va 
    • How great story-telling is equally as important as story-releasing 
    • Why we need to examine the stories we keep
