I will be asking you some relatively basic questions regarding your experience and how you are finding this time in your life and the transitions you are going through.

Your personal information is 💯 private and confidential, I will not include your name or any other personal information in my findings.

So…if you’re hāpu 3mnths + and interested (or know someone who might be), I’d LOVE to hear from you!!

Much appreciated
