“Rest is a big one. Surrounding ourselves with people who uplift us and taking care of our own wellbeing is part of holding capacity for others.”

as With Jaime Mackie from Ngakau Creative, Romiromi practitioner, Mama, Business owner, counsellor in training

In this episode, Jaime & I vibe all things healing, supporting our clients & tribe.
We eploring the realities of walking a healing path, the energetic responsibilities of Māori healing practice, the role of whakanoa, and the many ways practitioners care for themselves while holding space for others.

The conversation touches on idealised ideas and how practices for grounding and clearing evolve over time, shaped by life, family, and personal capacity.

Together we explore how vulnerability, community, and supervision can support practitioners to stay resourced in our work.

The episode also touches on identity, expectations placed on healers, and the importance of staying authentic to one’s own spirit and body. Throughout the conversation there is an invitation for practitioners to honour their humanness while continuing to grow their capacity to serve.
