*To answer the queries for those not on Facebook or the HC newsletter.... :- )
Harmony Circle was started with a desire to meet likeminded people. People who know/sensed in their heart that there is more to ‘being a human’.
And almost 4 years on I can say with certainty that the intentions I began with exceeded my vision.
I have had the pleasure of meeting some absolutely, incredibly wonderful, heart led, and interesting people. Some of whom, to my hearts joy, have become lifelong friends.
I’m not alone in this either, many people who became part of Harmony Circle also made some wonderful connections & friendships, some of which have been life changing.
For the better of course :- )
I had already become aware that the level of commitment it required from me to continue was now affecting my own pathway forward. However, I had intended to give it a little more time to either have the load eased or, somehow, maybe I would find a way to morph it into something less time consuming. Alas, my plans to at least see it through to its 4th birthday in November were scuppered!
How? Well, in the same way I had an inexplicable drive and desire to start this all up, and did so quite quickly, I recently experienced the same energy of certainty and knowing that it was now time for a break.
I listened. Just in the same way I listened at the start.

Why ask for guidance if we’re not going to listen when it’s given?

Although I did query it (‘it’ being the unquestionable divine guidance), and questioned it too, after all, I was due to be the next presenter! After qualifying a few months ago as an Emotion Code/Body Code practitioner, in addition to my other practises, I was eager to share this awesome modality! But the knowing/guidance was so strong, and felt so right.
Therefore Harmony Circle is now on a break while I take the time to focus and pursue my own pathway.
The reasons the break was needed are already becoming apparent. I am so glad I listened.
I’m still here. I’m still contactable.
Who knows what the future may hold. I’m open to it. I always have been.
With love, respect, and my hearts gratitude, Paula xx

The NZ Compare Awards are back... and we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time returning as an in-person celebration with a Gala Awards night hosted by Mike McRoberts in Auckland on December 1st 2022.

Recognising excellence, leadership and innovation in the New Zealand utility sectors, the NZ Compare Awards are back for the 6th year and in response to consumer demand, we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time.

As the boundaries between the utility industries continue to blur the organisers have responded to growing demand to increase the categories and industries celebrated by the NZ Compare Awards and will now recognise excellence and achievement within New Zealand’s BROADBAND, ENERGY and MOBILE sectors for the first time.

Award categories are consumer driven and informed by the 300,000 Kiwis who use NZ Compare websites each month. Winning carries real gravitas with the Kiwi consumer and the awards represent an opportunity to be confident in the talent and vision your company has worked so hard towards. This significant event will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services across these essential industries.

The NZ Compare Awards are supported by a wide range of companies including Movinghub, Vector Metering, Chorus, realestate.co.nz and Neighbourly. The prestigious awards will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services in their industries. With a range of different categories including best home and mobile provider, best customer support, fastest service, best rural provider and best broadband innovation.

Winning an NZ Compare Award depends on a combination of criteria. These include consumer surveys and reviews on the NZ Compare websites and decisions from our expert judging panel.

"Judged by an independent panel of New Zealand experts and presented at our gala awards event, the NZ Compare Awards provide a unique stage on which we recognize and reward the achievements of the New Zealand utility sectors." said Gavin Male, CEO of NZ Compare.

So what do you think? Give a shout out to your favourite utility provider here - not just for doing their job... we want to hear about those that go above and beyond! Who should be a winner?
