As someone who is Maori I think it is incredibly important to showcase and be proud of your culture. I am half and half and found it really difficult to fully embrace my Maori side even though I had whanau all around me telling me that I am Maori and no one can say otherwise I still felt as though I didn’t belong, although it was journey I can proudly say I am Maori and not let anyone take that away from me. I want to spread my wairua and uplift others who maybe struggling with their identity and let them know it is okay, take your time and don’t let anyone bring you down on your journey.
