Kia Ora koutou,

As summer unfolds in Wellington, I’m reminded of the strength and resilience each of you brings to your journey.

The longer days and warmer weather offer new opportunities to connect with the world around us, but I also recognise how challenging this season can be when managing symptoms. Whether it’s finding the right balance between rest and activity or navigating energy fluctuations, I continue to be inspired by your perseverance.

I’m excited to walk alongside you all in the year ahead, providing support, listening to your stories, and working together to find strategies that honour your unique experiences. My focus remains on offering care that not only acknowledges the complexities of living with ME/CFS but also celebrates your wins—big and small.

As we move into the new year, my hope is to create more spaces where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Thank you for letting me be part of your journey. I’m looking forward to seeing you all in the upcoming months

Ngā mihi nui,

Luisa
