Shownotes

In this episode, Taz Takirau, a Māori indigenous man from New Zealand, shares his profound journey of healing and reconnecting with his life's purpose during the C0 VID pandemic. Taz speaks directly to men, discussing the challenges of overcoming deep-seated anger and the importance of building new, healthier masculinities. His motivation comes from his children and grandchildren, and he emphasizes the ongoing work of protecting the Earth and supporting one another. Taz's powerful message, "you're not alone, brother," reminds us that no matter our background, we all face similar struggles mentally, physically, and spiritually. Taz reflects on the transformative power of heritage, resilience, and the collective journey towards inner peace and environmental stewardship.
