Season 2 of PEP Talk is here! 🎉

We open with a powerful kōrero featuring Lee Timutimu — Māori tech advocate, storyteller, and social equity leader.

In this episode, Lee shares his journey from reluctant leader to trailblazer, how his lived experiences shaped his advocacy for Māori data sovereignty, and why creating safe, empowered digital spaces for our people is more urgent than ever.

🌱 From founding Te Hapori Matihiko and Te Matarau to shaping kaupapa with Health NZ and universities, Lee reflects on identity, digital equity, and what it means to step into leadership when nobody else will.

🔍 What we talk about:

• How social justice pushed Lee into leadership

• The role of Māori data sovereignty

• Building digital communities for and by Māori

• Navigating the tech world with purpose

• Lessons from confronting NZ Tech
