Episode 113 - Reclaiming the Pen: You are the master of your own story with Luis Perez

Our guest this week has been leaving an impact in all the mahi/work that he is involved in. However, in this episode we go right back to where it all started from. We speak to Luis Perez about arriving in New Zealand as a refugee. He has used his experience to provide platforms such as Voice of Aroha to allow people that live in minority ethnic communities to share their stories. We also delve into Luis's foray with the importance of exposure, the power of allowing people to have an experience that in turn opens up opportunities.  Luis talks to us about how a rolled ankle became one of the worst best things to happen to him as it allowed him to stop, pause and think about his priorities.  This conversation is rich with experiences, with inspiration, with aspiration, but also oozing with passion for the power of storytelling. Luis'sknowledge that he shares at the end is one of the most powerful ones we have heard on our podcast. You will not want to miss it!
