ACT Party leader David Seymour delivered his State of the Nation address this morning. He says this government is on track to produce positive change, but it's not happening as quickly as it could be.

Cashing up clutter is becoming a national obsession. But there's still billions of dollars' worth of pre-loved goods lying idle in homes around Aotearoa according to a new report on the so-called circular economy. The report commissioned by Trademe surveyed 4000 New Zealand based people in October and November last year. The results show about 75 percent of them currently have unused or unwanted items they could sell. Head of Trade Me Marketplace, Lisa Stewart spoke to Lisa Owen.

Moving abroad is often sold as a reset. A fresh start. A better life.But many people arrive with expectations that were never realistic to begin with — shaped by social media, travel content, expat forums, and half-told success stories.In this episode, I look at the gap between what people think life abroad will be like and what actually happens once the novelty wears off. Using real, everyday examples - including visas, banking, and cost of living in Thailand — the episode explores why frustration is often baked in from the start, and how mismatched expectations quietly shape expat experiences everywhere.Thailand is sometimes the lens, because that's the world I live in — but the patterns are universal.This isn't about discouraging people from moving abroad.It's about understanding the reality before it surprises you.

Labour leader Chris Hipkins has fallen into the trap that I could very easily find myself falling into if I didn't think a little bit more carefully about this plan by the Government to set-up a new shipping terminal in Taranaki to import liquified natural gas. This is the gas that's needed to generate power, alongside the other ways we generate power in this country - hydro, coal and wind. It's going to cost somewhere north of $1 billion, and the Government reckons it will be up-and-running in one-to-two years' time. I think it's dreaming on the timeline front. I also think Chris Hipkins is dreaming when he says $1 billion would buy a lot of solar panels. Because even though Energy Minister Simon Watts banging-on about us paying less for our electricity - or more to the point, not paying a truckload more for electricity - this isn't actually about you and me. Unless you run a big manufacturing or processing plant - in particular one of these big plants or factories that have been struggling with power prices. This is about industrial electricity supplies. This talk about importing gas first surfaced a couple of years ago when factories were actually closing because of high power prices. The big power companies looked into it, and they wrote a report for the Government which essentially said that it wasn't as straightforward as it sounded. They looked into the practicalities of importing gas and they said we could do it, but there are a few things to think about. The main ones being the price tag and how long it would take to get it happening. They said last year that it could be done cheaper than $1 billion - for around $200 million - but the gas would be 25 percent more expensive, because the cheaper option would use existing facilities. However, there wouldn't be the same amount of storage and so we couldn't buy as much in one hit and so we'd pay more for it. They also said it wouldn't be an overnight fix. It would be about four years before we started to see the benefits. Another main point in this report was that we could spend the money and wait for it all to come online, but there could be years when we don't even need the extra gas. But that's a bit like pouring money into a fire alarm and sprinkler system and not using it. You know it's there and it gives you security. That's how I see this gas importation business. It's a back-up. And so, what if it isn't needed all the time? LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gen Z are having a hard time conceptualizing the reality of financial freedom, as Canada grapples with an affordability crisis. That's especially so for residents of two of the country's most expensive cities, Toronto and Vancouver.And while people in their 20s struggle with affording a place to stay, their parents struggle with watching them struggle, and inevitably end up opening their doors as they finish post-secondary and hunt for a job, a career, a place to stay or even a purpose in life.Host Maria Kestane speaks to Claire Gagné, editor for Macleans and author of 'Why Gen Z Will Never Leave Home'. The two discuss the possibilities of multigenerational living to benefit Canadians struggling with money - and loneliness, and how Canada could improve its lagging productivity issue.

Why Democrats Keep Losing: Abandoning Voters, Misreading Power & Repeating the Same Errors | The Karel Show At a recent California forum featuring Democratic candidates for governor, LGBTQ issues weren't mentioned at all. Not once. That silence says more than any speech. Then Elizabeth Warren suggested that to “win,” Democrats should abandon social issues and focus only on affordability. The strategy? Shed the so-called distractions, chase the middle, and assume marginalized voters have nowhere else to go. That logic is exactly how Democrats lose. When core voters feel erased, they don't switch parties — they stay home. And staying home is how elections are lost. Again. Meanwhile, Donald Trump retreats in Minneapolis — but is it far too late? And as Democrats threaten to fire or impeach Kristi Noem, a simple question hangs in the air: if the votes exist to impeach her, why not him? We also break down a viral Reddit post mocking The Farmer's Wife over a $22 grilled cheese — a pile-on that led to both locations shutting down. Why are individual restaurants being publicly shamed while massive grocery chains and corporate food pricing escape the same scrutiny? This episode asks a hard but necessary question: When will Democrats stop misreading their own coalition — and start fighting like they actually want to win?

California's population growth stalled from mid-2024 to mid-2025, marking the first essentially flat growth after years of pandemic-era slowdown. Trump administration immigration raids and policy changes reduced the foreign-born population by 1.5 million, slowing U.S. population growth to half a percent.

A move for schools to leave branded uniforms to reduce costs for parents. Some are calling for rules to be modernised - to let students wear plain, generic clothing. It's been done in countries like Puerto Rico for years. Albany Senior High School Principal, Claire Amos, says it's increasingly common for Kiwi students to wear coloured items without logos or embroidery. "They're often pretty much the same as what was their uniform - it's just no longer logoed, it's just a simple culottes, or skirt, or pants, and a top."

Today, I interview Katrina van Oudheusden, who reflects on how early family dynamics, expectations, and learning to be capable from a young age shaped the way she learned to push through, stay productive, and quiet parts of herself.Growing up in a large family with strong values around stability and responsibility, Katrina learned to perform well and do what was expected. As an adult, those early patterns followed her into high-achieving environments, where productivity was prioritized and bodily signals were often set aside, eventually leading to exhaustion and a sense of losing her voice.A turning point came when she began questioning whether confidence, speaking, and success were meant to be forced at all. That question opened a deeper exploration of listening to the body and recognizing rhythms many women are never taught to honor.Today, Katrina supports women in slowing down, reconnecting with themselves, and building lives and businesses that feel aligned with who they are. In this conversation, we explore how voice, trust, and presence begin long before speaking, and what becomes possible when listening replaces pushing.__________________Katrina van Oudheusden (van Oud-who's den) is a Business Growth Coach and creator of the CreatHER Method, a framework that helps highly accomplished women grow their businesses without burnout.With a background rooted in Disney's legendary customer experience philosophy, Katrina brings a unique blend of strategic precision and emotional connection to everything she creates.Through her offerings, including CreatHER Business Rewire, the CreatHER Planner, and her in-person CreatHER Rest & Reset, she helps ambitious women reconnect with their natural rhythms and design businesses that flow.Katrina's work blends the art of customer experience with the science of business scaling, turning clarity into cash flow, rest into results, and creativity into sustainable impact.__________________Find Katrina here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/katrinavanoudheusden/https://www.pinterest.com/thetruthbomb/https://truthbombmarketing.com/go/authentically-female/authentic-femalehttp://creatherplanner.comSupport the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

Thousands of Hawaii families have relocated to Utah, driven by the state’s high cost of living, but maintain strong cultural connections through businesses, religious networks and community organizations. Another draw to Utah is the Mormon church headquarters. About half of Utah’s population identifies as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with Polynesians making up a significant portion of that membership. Back in Hawaii, efforts to address the housing crisis that drove families away are showing results.
