Jase Te Patu has lived many lives. World-class athlete, international performer, TEDx speaker, and founder of one of Aotearoa's most impactful mental health programmes for youth, Hauora Aotearoa. But his story starts in Whanganui, raised by his Nan and Koro, having never met his mum and losing his dad to absence. In this conversation, Jase opens up about the belief he carried for years, that he was unworthy and unlovable, and how that pain drove his pursuit of excellence.  We talk about grief, identity, and the state of youth mental health in New Zealand. We also talk about hope, what keeps him going, and what a better future could look like if we're willing to show up and do the work! Hope you enjoy this episode!

We're joined on Purposely Podcast by Gwen Green, General Manager of Engagement and Marketing at Blind Low Vision New Zealand. Gwen talks openly about her leadership approach, her career shift from the UK to New Zealand, and the ongoing work to strengthen the organisation's connection with the people it serves.Gwen first joined Blind Low Vision NZ on a short-term contract to lead fundraising during a period of transition. What began as a temporary role quickly turned into a long-term commitment. Seeing the potential to create more impact, Gwen took on the role permanently and brought together fundraising, communications, and marketing into a single engagement function. The goal: better alignment, shared direction, and a stronger team culture.A big part of that change involved supporting Blind Low Vision NZ's recent rebrand. Gwen talks about the internal and external challenges that came with the shift—especially helping staff and supporters adjust to a broader focus on people with different levels of sight loss. For Gwen, the rebrand wasn't just about updating logos and language; it was about making sure the organisation reflects the communities it works with and speaks to people in an honest, inclusive way.Originally from the UK, Gwen reflects on how working in Aotearoa is different—especially when it comes to work-life balance and the scale of the charity sector. She sees value in adapting international experience to suit local contexts, and credits her team's openness and collaboration for making that transition work.Digital fundraising, understanding donor behaviour, and managing change are all part of Gwen's day-to-day focus. But just as important is building a workplace culture where people feel supported, clear on their roles, and part of something meaningful.Looking ahead, Gwen is focused on strengthening services, pushing for better accessibility legislation, and making sure the organisation continues to meet the needs of the community. That means listening carefully, staying flexible, and working across teams to get things done.

Dubbed a local supergroup, the band features members who've played with Tiny Ruins, Fazerdaze, and Lucky Boy, and recently released their stunning debut album Aseurai. The record expands their sonic palette even further, pulling from disco pop, Bossa nova, and '90s Korean ballads.

It's no secret that Aotearoa is facing a range of monumental infrastructure challenges — much has been made lately of the state of our water pipes, ferries, railways and roads. Successive generations of decision makers have kicked the infrastructure maintenance can down the road, and now we are facing a huge bill if we want to keep pace with our growing population. Infrastructure NZ chief executive Nick Leggett joins Bernard Hickey to discuss the scale of the infrastructure challenge facing New Zealand, and how overseas countries have approached similar issues.

This week marks Men's Mental Health Week in Aotearoa – a time to kōrero about the challenges that many men face, and to break down the stigma that still surrounds emotional well-being. For a long time, the phrase ‘harden up' has shaped the way men think about vulnerability, and in turn, often pushes men to bottle up emotions, instead of reaching out for help. ‘Soften Up Bro' is a kaupapa grounded in Te Ao Maori values, encouraging men to embrace softness, honesty and connection.

Earlier this week, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Immigration Minister Erica Stanford recently announced the Parent Boost Visa, part of the government's self-described commitment to supporting parents living overseas to visit and stay with their families here in Aotearoa.

The commons or common land are cultural and natural resources available to all members of a society. In Europe they are prevalent but when early colonists came to Aotearoa they instead prioritised private ownership. The theory at the time was private ownership derives progress. But as we're now seeing that comes with its own drawbacks. In her latest book, An Uncommon Land, Catherine Knight looks at the genesis and evolution of the commons in New Zealand.

One of the less discussed announcements in 2025's budget was the disestablishment of Predator Free 2050. The project was announced by former Prime Minister John Key in 2016, with the ambitious goal of complete pest eradication in Aotearoa.  The government's contributions to the mission were funneled through ‘Predator Free 2050' a government-funded organisation created to support conservation projects and technologies. These projects funded through Predator Free 2050 will not be affected by the organisation's closure, and will instead be passed on to the Department of Conservation. Conservation Minister Tama Potaka says the change will increase efficiency and reduce duplication.  While it's good news that the funding won't be affected on paper, the Department of Conservation is already struggling to manage its existing commitments. With these additional responsibilities, the future of the Predator Free mission has become less certain.  To discuss conservation in Aotearoa and how this cut will affect the Predator Free mission, Wire host Castor spoke to General Manager at Forest and Bird, Richard Capie.
