A gorgeous reconnection with Cathleen today!

Loved discussing space and belonging, parenting and famili 🥰 So lovely to have you all in the space today, and the opportunity to meet Fletcher and Rosemary! Look forward to a Brisbane trip in the future! 🙌🏽🌺🥰 #Southside #Community #Ōtara #Service #PhenomenalWomen #TeamTonga
