Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou katoa, nau mai hoki mai ki te kaupapa kōrero Real Talk.
I’m Tania Carr, and today in this episode, you are going to hear the incredibly brave story of Jade Wharemate.
Jade took the stage at our Real Talk Mō Ngā Rangatahi event in Waikato, to share her experiences with her journey through llife. She shares her highs and her lows and how following her dreams has lead her to new and exciting adventures ahead.
Here is a whakatauiki that Jade shared with us on the night:
"Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini"
Success is not the work of an individual, but the work of a collective
Here is Jades story...
Kia Ora my name is Jade. I whakapapa back to Ngāti Hāua but grew up in a little place called Reporoa. Growing up in a little town you learn to appreciate every opportunity and everyone around you.
I’ve always felt a sense of responsibility to be a good role model, leader and confidant for not only my whānau but everyone around me.
I am on a journey of healing and self-discovery and I want to inspire Rangitahi and encourage them to believe in themselves and believe that anything is possible. Life is never easy but how we faced up to those challenges can help define who we are.
