I learned a lot in this conversation with Alison Mau about her life and journey and what has led to the setting up of Tika. Curiousity guided the questions and we talk about a lot of things starting with her childhood, growing up in Melbourne, experiences at primary school that shaped her and led to a resilient attitude, the special bond she feels with horses and why that is so, becoming a journalist back in the analogue days before lots of computers or dictaphons, and her presenting on TV and how she ended up in New Zealand. Then we focus in on the setting up of Tika which is a charity that empowers people to come forward to report past sexual harm and how it works, what it means and the future potential.

And an encouragment for us all: "Happiness for me is not in money, possessions or anything like that - it is, how can I be useful..."
