So many organisations closing at the moment :( was sad to read about Inspiring Stories just now - who run the annual Festival for the Future conference. They gave me my first really big speaking opportunity in 2012 when PledgeMe started (πŸ“Έ below). Sending hugs to their whole team past & present.

Has anyone figured out why toddlers like sleeping horizontally across their parent’s bed? Asking for me.

Helen’s passing hit me really hard too. Gone too young, and too senselessly. We gotta listen to women.

Preparing for our 2nd annual Book Flood (the Icelandic tradition of giving books the night before Christmas and then quietly reading them while drinking nice drinks & eating snacks). But I need some book recommendations for toddlers & people who like science fiction & ethical business. Any ideas?

Tbh I had to look up the definition and it made me laugh - it’s root is Latin for enemy, but last week one of my friends explained to me the word in Māori for enemy is β€œangry friend” which felt very right.

I’m heading along to Aroha Wellington this Thursday night - to celebrate Pōneke and show support for those having a tough time. See you there?

I was today years old when I found out about fan fiction where Harry Potter & Draco Malfoy hook up and I am 100% already a fan.

Our local community was out for hours today waving at people driving past to awhi the hΔ«koi. Probably around 150 people showed up, all ages & joyous. I reckon around a third of the cars that drove past showed their support too. #toitΕ«tetiriti
