In times like these, I’m grateful for an alternative.

Anthea from Lifestyle Happy Place

🌼Balancing work and life is difficult, but it can be done. That's why many people choose to work from home if possible. But many think that because you don't leave home, you don't have a real career. This is especially the case for mums.

🌼Hi, I’m Anthea, I have a background in healthcare, a mum of 2 and have been enjoying working part time from home for the past 2 years. It’s been absolutely life changing!

🌼When we went into lockdown, I was interesting to see how my online business would hold up during these unprecedented times and it has been pleasantly rewarding for many of us.

🌼You see, I started working this business because I wanted an extra income and more time at home. I’m thankful now because my hubby is out of work due to this situation however my business is still ticking over. It’s so relieving.

🌼And in times like these, when everyone is home, I make sure to implement my (Work At Home Mum) schedule into four sections:

- Family time
- Business time
- Household time
- Me time

🌼The pro’s, since the kids are home is that we implemented a learning curriculum on household chores before their devices come out. They will be A+ students before this lock down is over.

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
