Episode 5: “Fight with your brain”
The guest of the fifth Weekend Warriors Rock podcast series is the inspiring Liz. Liz shares her personal background and family history, including her parents’ migration to New Zealand and the challenges she faced, which led her to pursue studies in politics and sociology. Our conversation explores Liz’s approach to life and personal development, focusing on her commitment to mastery, spiritual practice, physical health (walking and grounding), and the importance of connection with her family, friends, and ancestors. Liz also shares her journey to turn “trauma into triumph” and how her own experience has inspired her to pursue research into rheumatic fever health literacy for Māori and Pasifika communities. Finally, Liz also reflects on the benefit of mentors and daily journaling for accountability and mental clarity.
