Expansive insights from Franko Heke today, an inspiration to this community and beyond for being a steadfast leader, honing his words not weapons, a new kind of leadership that will elevate consciousness around the world!

Franko Heke, with roots in Ngāpuhi Māori and Italian heritage, is a devoted father to two daughters and an artist who channels his passion through mantra and reggae music. He is not just a musician but a catalyst for community wellness, organizing events that nourish the soul and safeguard our Earth.

He founded NZ Spirit & Resolution festivals, alcohol-free, family-centric events designed to empower individuals through holistic workshops and uplift spirits with indigenous and conscious music by night.

Furthering his commitment to sustainable living, Franko is revitalizing two farms in Auckland's Kaipara Harbour into a Blue Zone – a sanctuary with a retreat centre, native forest, organic gardens, an animal refuge, music studio, and a tiny house community. This regeneration journey is being captured in a documentary with Suzy Cameron, aiming to inspire a global audience to care for themselves, their communities, and the planet.
