    Giving grief a place to exist - Extended version

    Grief I believe was inherited in to my life by witnessing it in my parent from a young age. Their grief and pain became internalized in to me. I remember the moment seeing my son's eyes - they looked how I felt when I was his age. And I wanted to stop the cycle so he could have a different experience of life, his own. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inez-white/message

    Kia ora and welcome to "Grief Centre with Indigenuity on Mondays." I use the word grief but I mean many other things. Like anger, sadness, loss, trauma, being stuck, frightened. The hole. Disassociation - disconnecting from yourself mometarily is not 'sexy' these days where everything is about vulnberability and connection. However...it's a pragmatic tool that has helped me to be able to overcome overwhelm, loss and messy situations to buy my own houses for my kids.

    Aonga Ake e te whaanau. Today is Monday, we make space for our grief, anger, resentment. You know, the kind of experiences that have been holding us back on our journey. Today I discuss the origins of why I started Grief Centre on Mondays. It's probably not what you think. It was actually about how I managed to keep myself calm amongst other people's bull kaka, greed and behaviour. In particular how whaanau behaved around land, whenua, trusts and money. Paru, sad, bad behaviour. I discuss how being stuck looked in my experience and the approach that has given some peace for my whaanau.

    Every property I've ever bought, the finance journey was filled with 9 x NO, and 1 x Yes right at the end. This is normal. Practise Hope so that you don't give up. It's a skill and a virtue. Today we delve into the concept of cultivating hope within yourself. Let's explore the practices, tools, and perspectives that allow us to nurture and foster hope. In terms of homeownership and whenua, you need hope. Lots of it, because often the process feels like it is always a 'NO'. Will you consider retraining yourself to see NO as - Not Yet.

    On Fridays, we make space for creativity. You don't always have to be doing crafts - sometimes just about play or experiencing freedom. Taking back control or the feeling of control over your life. Even if it is just a few minutes or an hour of your week. And from that feeling of freedom and play, that feeling is actually wealth.

And it was not because of luck. No. I worked at the damn thing from 2015 to 2021. I/we/my little whānau, worked at all the healing and growth that we needed in order to experience peace and joy. ...and a five figure 'zero'. Some people call $0 in the bank account 'zero'. I've consistently called $50,000 my zero. 2022 was different. Finally I didn't have my partner, whānau, colleagues or acquaintances rumble with me because they felt unearthed by how I say 'NO' at a five figure bank balance. No, last year, my husband joined me (it has taken a couple of years to calibrate ourselves) - and agreed that this is the life our children will be raised in. Where a house or two, a five figure bank balance, no violence, laughter and love - is allowed to be our normal.

    Isn't all debt bad? No. Some debt can be useful, for example, a home loan, a car loan, a line of credit, a zero interest credit card, capital funding to start a business. It becomes BAD DEBT when it consumes you, it costs more than its worth, the interest rate is higher than the rate of return. OR when its gone stale or rotten and sent to the Debt Collectors. Here is a little of what I observe, have learned and have experienced to get out of bad debt. P.s. I am also a survivor of bad debt...you can survive and thrive after BAD DEBT. Ngā mihi.

It is what makes us Indigenous in the first place. Indigeneity is a location specific adjective; you are indigenous to a place. Colonisation works most effectively when you a sever a tie to a an element of a people's sense of identity (reo, tikanga, whenua). Connection to whenua is what makes us native to this land...and this is the area that I've decided to focus my business on for the next two to three generations.
