Where can you listen?

Takatāpui Talk is a living collection of stories — a weaving together of voices from our community, shared with honesty, care, and deep respect.

Each kōrero holds a life lived — through love, loss, identity, whānau, and resilience — offering insight into what it means to be takatāpui in Aotearoa, both then and now.

This series is not about explanation or justification. It is about presence. It is about truth. It is about us, speaking for ourselves.

Created within a space of trust and connection, these conversations are a taonga — for our people, for our whānau, and for those who seek to understand us more deeply.

Takatāpui Talk is a reminder that we are not new, we are not invisible — we have always been here.

These kōrero are about resilience, laughter, truth, and love.
