#67: Jase Te Patu – Fixing NZ's Mental Health Crisis, Tips For Mental Wellness and Purpose
Description
Jase Te Patu has lived many lives. World-class athlete, international performer, TEDx speaker, and founder of one of Aotearoa's most impactful mental health programmes for youth, Hauora Aotearoa.
But his story starts in Whanganui, raised by his Nan and Koro, having never met his mum and losing his dad to absence. In this conversation, Jase opens up about the belief he carried for years, that he was unworthy and unlovable, and how that pain drove his pursuit of excellence.
We talk about grief, identity, and the state of youth mental health in New Zealand. We also talk about hope, what keeps him going, and what a better future could look like if we're willing to show up and do the work!
