Real Life. Real Obstacles, Real Breakthrough.

Camille shares of many seasons through her life, In particular the challenges and journey that began as a single mother’s determination to get off a DPB and just $1.70 in her pocket.

From Tears to Triumph picture Camille, pushing a lonely grocery trolley through the aisles of New World, three children and Christmas carols drifting overhead as tears fell. With each festive note, the weight of uncertainty pressed in, how would she ever secure her family’s future?

A journey began to provide, to care and to protect her whanau, "How", she was desperate and alone unsure of what the next move could be. 4am freezing works had her on-call so she could get home by 3pm to get the children from school. Early starts and late nights still not enough food in the cupboard, still could not make ends meet.

From Rags to Riches… and Back Again, "how do you turn $1.70 to a million dollars"?

From those humble beginnings, she built a thriving million dollar retail business! Proof that vision, grit, and faith can turn even the smallest seed into lasting success. Building a franchise template she had created a formula that would multiply itself through the Nation.

Business downturn arrived

After 10 years of nurturing her stores, Camille faced an unexpected economic downturn. Retail is known as one of the most fragile forms of business with stock on hand dependent on sales, Skyrocketing rent and a shrinking market forced her to liquidate everything she’d worked so hard to create. It was a season of deep pain, shame, and uncertainty one that might have driven many to give up or hide away. A new journey arrived within her, how would she face the world, every one around her and of all, her children.

WHANAU

“Nothing could dim Camille’s fierce devotion to her children, family is her heartbeat and the catalyst that ignited her true purpose. This unbreakable bond became her turning point, fuelling every step with passion, resilience, and love.”

Parenting: Camille faced countless challenges, and guiding her children through the consequences of her choices required deep wisdom, courage, and determination. Her whanau had been hurt from many mistakes she had made, addiction can destroy as does broken people. There was a journey ahead that required all that she had, to build trust in her whanau and heal the wounds.

She believed strong families begin with strong parents, so she embraced parenting as a path to cultivate resilience, love, and joy in her children. Along the way, she made difficult changes to heal past wounds and build a brighter future for her family.

Coaching with whanau is a passion that fires in Camille ONLY because she knows first hand that we can make the change for our children, we can lead the way and become parents with strength-dignity-love & honour. It doesn't mean we always get it right, we are always learning as well. Forgiveness needs to be the cornerstone for all whanau, Love forgives always.
