Summary
This week, Dave sits down with Ladi6 — artist, storyteller, and one of Aotearoa’s most respected voices in music — for a raw kōrero about the life behind the music. From growing up in Christchurch with social worker parents who gave everything to their community, to navigating trauma, anxiety, and learning how to separate her own identity from the stories she inherited, Ladi opens up about the work of healing and figuring out who you really are. She shares how music became both her outlet and her purpose, and how journaling, self-reflection, and building strong boundaries helped her survive the chaos that can come with success. A powerful conversation about healing, family, and finding yourself beyond the noise. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
