Kaputī Break | The Discomfort of Reflecting on Self
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this Kaputī Break, Amy reflects on a powerful kōrero that emerged from a recent Te Ara Whaiaro session and the shared discomfort that can arise when we are asked to truly look at ourselves. She unpacks how Te Ara Whaiaro was created, using the pā harakeke as an analogy for reflection, growth, and understanding our place within the bigger picture.
This episode gently invites wāhine to turn the mirror inward with manaakitanga and curiosity instead of judgment. Amy explores why self reflection can feel uncomfortable, the role of ego and identity, and how familiarity can keep us feeling safe even when it no longer serves us. It is a reminder that new awareness begins when we are brave enough to sit with what we see.
Grab your kaputī and take a moment to sit with this kōrero. And if this conversation stirs something within you, Amy invites you to reach out and share what comes up for you. ☕
