About this listen

As part of the 2025 Regional Writers Rise Festival, Leading with Heart: A Community Conversation brought the community together for an open, reflective discussion about leadership, care, and courage, not as formal titles, but as quiet, often unseen acts that shape our lives and communities. Inspired by A Different Kind of Power, the memoir by former Aotearoa New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, the conversation explored leadership through service, empathy, and presence. Guided by local guest speakers, we reflected on themes of self-doubt, grief, cultural repair, and the quiet strength of doing things differently.

More about the session and the guest speakers can be found on the Regional Writers Rise website.
