Home Ground creates space for women in the justice system to pause, nurture hope, activate social change and create better lives for themselves and future generations. On a Home Ground project, artists (inside and outside of prison) make creative works using dance, performance, photography, writing, painting and music to address the issues women and whānau face in the justice system. Take the Space This audio journey has been crafted with love, by the Home Ground Collective. We created this podcast to control our own narrative, to tell our own stories, to be who we are on our own terms. Each episode you will hear more about the work we do and through our voices and collective learning, you can help to change the shape of the justice system – for the better. Episode 25 February: Finding My Why In this episode our amazing Plant Mama, Te Aue, talks about the journey of ‘Finding My Why’ when you are in prison – what do you hold onto to remind yourself what matters? What happens when you go home? How do you find your motivation to keep going with your good life? Te Aue has been working with us for four years, and as well as beautiful visual arts she is a motivational speaker! Listen up – she shares all her wisdom through the strength of lived experience.
