Badda boom — I’m back!
It’s been tough picking up the mics since we lost Kels. Some days, they feel like they weigh a thousand kilos. Hitting record without hearing the bro making a beat or going on a rant feels strange. Even starting the podcast with a greeting feels off.

But I know Kels would want me to keep going — so keep going I will.

This episode, I’ve got a brilliant guest: CJ. She’s a wife, mum, teacher, friend — and so much more. She’s also faced her own battles with mental health. We dive into her journey, how it’s shaped her, where she’s at now, and the impact she’s making on others.

It’s a fun, thoughtful kōrero — and CJ’s voice is pure warmth for your ears.

More episodes coming soon. Hold me accountable, whānau!
