“ You created our own world. I felt safe, awhi'd and hyped up. ”
(Courtney Shaw)
Ko Courtney Shaw tēnei
He wāhine māia ia ❤️
On the cusp of another lap around te rā, Courtney had a vision of the version of herself she wanted to bring into te aō for the next chapter of her life - strong in her mana wāhinetanga and always guided by her tipuna.
On the backdrop of Ngāti Awa whenua, I had the privilege of helping Courts to bring these parts of her tuakiri to the forefront.
Our time together was a chance for kōrero, katakata, whakawhanaungatanga, whakawātea, and above all was a beautiful reminder that our tipuna are never too far away ❤️
