Over the past 8 years in Communications and over a decade in Content Creation, I’ve worked across Kaupapa Māori, community, governance and national platforms now operating my own business as a contracted Communications Specialist and Strategist.

In that time, I’ve learned a thing or two about what actually cuts through the noise, connects to people and creates lasting impact.

So here are some key tips that have helped me elevate platforms, uplift voices and stay grounded in purpose over the years by understanding marketing, analytics, content strategies, audience behaviour and the power of storytelling 🤌🏻✨

This kōrero is for the spaces wanting to grow in their reach, sharpen their message and build with intention because clarity, authenticity and strategy will always have a style 💫🌿

“I’d love to nominate Monica Lave (Herewini) 🌸

She’s just finished her second-to-last presentation for her Whakapakari and is currently holding it down as a kaiako at Te Kōhanga Reo o Whare Aroha. An absolutely incredible mama to her autistic boy and an all-round powerhouse who does so much for her whānau and for us too!

Just one month ago, I survived a traumatic car accident out in Tirohanga. Monica was the very first to be by my side. She stayed with me in hospital till the very end, looked after my two boys while I was in recovery for three weeks and has done so much more than words can ever fully express.

She does it all with love, strength and humility. I truly hope she gets this, she deserves it 🥹💯💕”

Kua kitea, kua rongo ❤️✨

Life before death 🌿💫

Preparing for the end of life doesn’t mean giving up, it means honouring what’s come before and what will remain after. It’s a chance to share your stories, your aroha, your legacy.

In our tikanga, death is not the end. It’s a transition, a return. And when we face it together, with aroha and openness, it can be one of the most powerful, beautiful times we ever live through.

I had the privilege of helping edit this deeply meaningful kaupapa, and it’s beautiful to see it rise and take its place in the world 🌎 reaching into new realms, guided by wairua, helping whānau who could be navigating similar situations✨💫🤝

Love seeing beautiful pikitia captured for businesses 💫 but I especially love this inu! Full of flavour, nourishing for my tinana, and crafted with absolute AROHA. You can really taste the love in every sip!

Booked over the weekend to capture the kōrero of my whānau, the essence of our whenua, and the wairua of our awa. 🌿🌱💫

One of the greatest blessings in this mahi is nurturing the stories that surface ā wairua, ā tinana, ā ngākau.

When asked to capture the taiāo I don’t come as my normal self. I first need to immerse myself to swim, to feel the awa within, to align my being with the natural flow of the world around me. Only then could I truly see and capture its essence. A ritual, a practice I’ve always done.

Here’s a glimpse into the world of a Māori wahine, deeply grounded in her essence, moving with intention and resilience. Through her lens, she captures more than just moments, she preserves her home, her heart, with mana and mauri.

Every frame holds a legacy, every story is a tāonga that will forever be priceless 🌿
