Whakatuakī [proverbs] included:

he aroha whakatō, he aroha puta mai
if kindness is sown, then kindness you shall receive

kia mate ururoa kei mate wheke
fight like a shark, don’t give up like an octopus

poipoia te kākano kia puāwai
nurture the seed and it will blossom

tūwhitia te hopo!
Feel the fear and do it anyway!

He iti hoki te mokoroa, nāna i kakati te kahikatea
although the mokoroa grub is small, it can cut through a kahikatea tree

Mā te ngākau aroha koe e ārahi
let a loving heart guide you

ki te kotahi te kākaho, ka whati; ki te kāpuia, e kore e whati
when we stand alone we are vulnerable, but together we are unbreakable
- Kīngi Tāwhiao

he toka tū moana
your strength is like a rock standing firm in raging waters

e kore au e ngaro, he kākano ahau i ruia mai i Rangiātea
I can never be lost, I am a seed sown from the heavens

mauria te pono
believe in yourself

The Perfect Koha

The whakatauki card set were my client gift of choice for this year, and the feedback has been amazing! Finding that balance of expressing who I am as a Maori business owner, while accomodating different clients from different sectors is always challenging, but these were perfect. Wonderful personal service. I look forward to choosing next years client koha from Maimoa Creative! Nga mihi!

Ka nui te mihi ki a koe Shelley i tō tautoko mai — thank you for choosing us to supply your client gifts for 2022 We are thrilled to hear they were so well received by all. All the best for 2023, noho ora mai, Aroha
