Off Grid with Gemma McCaw’s Group, Becki Ross’ Farewell & What We’ve Learned from Life-Story Interviews

We reflect on Becki Ross' beautiful send-off at Lake Karāpiro, hearing her mum mention Between Two Beers in her speech, and what happens for guests long after the mics go off.

Plus: the post about a “90s childhood” street that struck a chord, and why who you live next to might matter more than the house you buy.

Char spends two days off-grid with Ladies Who Venture with Gemma McCaw. A five-year-old who out-lasted her big brothers in the Hanmer Springs cold plunge. What poker teaches you about business. And Sammy’s once-a-year birthday coffee.

We also catch up with Suzanne McFadden, lead interviewer for Reflections, our private family documentaries. She talks about the 50-year marriage that still had a secret, the Swiss farmer who sang to his mother on camera, and the one thing almost everyone says matters most. Find out more at reflections.life.

And a tease for next week: a guest with more than 100 games for the All Blacks, telling parts of his story for the first time.
