Conversations With Wāhine

Harita recently interviewed Olive Leaf Network founder, Lindy Jacomb, about her personal experience of being excommunicated from the Exclusive Brethren church 18 years ago.

If you or anyone you know is thinking of leaving a "culty" religion, business or group, or have left and need support, please let them know they are not alone and they/you can reach out to Olive Leaf Network anytime for free help.

Lindy is also organising this amazing event on 28th October which is open for all to attend:

133 years ago, women changed New Zealand by demanding a seat at the table.🏆

They didn't politely wait their turn.

They organised. They disrupted. They challenged politicians. They made themselves impossible to ignore.

This Suffrage Day, honour the suffragists the same way they honoured each other: by showing up. 🙌

Learn the policies. Question the candidates. Vote like the women of 1893 are watching. 🇳🇿✅

And if a politician doesn't like being held accountable?

Tell them Kate sent you.
