In this deeply personal and raw episode of Beyond The Hustle, I sit down with longtime friend and community leader Val Tauamiti. We kōrero about his journey through the not-for-profit world, the toll that leadership can take when you carry it all alone, and the major health scare that forced him to stop and reflect.

Val opens up about his experience with burnout, undergoing serious heart surgery, and what it really means to show up — not just for work, but for whānau and for yourself. We talk fatherhood, identity, therapy, and the unspoken costs of being everything to everyone.

This one is vulnerable, powerful, and real. If you've ever struggled with balance, felt the pressure to perform, or wondered how to be a better version of yourself — this episode is for you.
