Kiwis love tourism ... it brings in cash and connection. But with more visitors comes more pressure on our beautiful places, housing, and local infrastructure.
So what’s the fix? Should we bring in a tourism tax or focus on spreading visitors beyond the hotspots to ease the load? 👇

No one talks about this… but women’s bodies go through massive changes.

As we approach menopause, it’s not just “aging.” It’s a whole shift in hormones, energy, sleep, mood, and digestion changes that can feel overwhelming. Yet so often, these conversations happen in whispers… or not at all.
This is why support matters.
Chi Coffy™ is crafted to help women navigate these transitions with balance calming digestion, supporting steady energy, and helping restore harmony in daily life.
Wellness shouldn’t be a silent struggle. It’s time we start talking about the things no one mentions.
💬 If you know someone navigating these changes, share this post. Let’s normalize the conversation.
