Just us this week… with our last episode for… we don’t know how long.

Making Island Roots, Auckland Ways has been a labour of love. Even as recently as a few years ago, there were no podcasts that represented who we were as Pacific 20-somethings trying to find our way in the world. We hope this has been a safe space for you, as much it has for us. Until next time, alofa tele atu.

This week’s guest is Māori broadcaster and reo advocate Stacey Morrison.

We’d be here all day listing the TV and radio shows that our Stace has fronted, but she’s currently at Flava - back after launching the station 20 years ago. We take our chat even further to the What Now and Mai Time days. Above all, she is a proud wife and Mum. She lets us know there’s still time for us to create our dream families.
