✨LIVE EPISODE✨ An evening of thoughtful and lively conversation with Liv Patience (Material Creative), Olivia Moon (Nodi) and Amber Armitage (Interior Stylist).

You might be wondering why we talked about interiors at a food festival, but when you think about it, food and interiors are inseparable. Food is at the heart of the home. It's what brings people together. We gather around tables, we linger in kitchens, we open a bottle of wine with friends, celebrate milestones, and create the small everyday rituals that shape our lives.

Join us for a thoughtful conversation about how considered interiors, shared meals and meaningful hospitality shape homes that feel deeply lived in and loved.

This event was co-hosted by Super Creative Podcast and Blank Canvas Catering as part of the Flavours of Plenty festival in Tauranga, New Zealand.

Recorded in April 2026.

This episode of Super Creative is another one that’s slightly different to the norm. After the response to my DIY PR episode with Liv Boswell last year, I realised how much people value hearing directly from experts who can share practical insight for running and growing a business.

Today I’m joined by business and mindset coach (and friend of the pod) Rosie Holt for a conversation about how to optimise your business in 2026. It’s coming out a little later than I originally planned, but it actually feels perfectly timed as we head into the new financial year.

We talk about strategy, direction and the importance of stepping back from the day-to-day work of running a business to think about where you’re actually heading. Rosie shares practical advice on setting meaningful goals, creating simple strategies, managing your time more intentionally and building systems that allow your business to grow sustainably.

This episode really is for anyone. You might have been in business for years or you might be in the early stages. You might be working solo, leading a small team, or even just sitting on a business idea you’re hoping to launch in 2026.

Even if you’ve been running a business for a long time, you might recognise the classic trap of working in the business rather than on it. And if strategy is already one of your strengths, you might simply enjoy hearing some fresh ideas and perspectives.

In true Super Creative style, the conversation is relaxed and unscripted but packed with useful ideas that will help you start the year with clarity and direction.

Today on the podcast I speak to Jen Jones - founder of New Zealand Design Week. She’s also a construction manager by profession, entrepreneur, and speaker. Jen is a woman who wears many hats.

Jen has spent almost 15 years delivering complex commercial and infrastructure projects, managing builds up to $300 million, while also carving out a voice in sustainable construction and considered living.

In 2023, alongside her construction work, Jen founded Auckland Design Week, which has now evolved into New Zealand Design Week. Created to give designers a platform to connect, collaborate, and be seen, NZDW has quickly evolved into a nationally recognised event.

In this conversation we talk about Jen’s journey from construction into events, the realities of building something from scratch, what it takes to scale an idea, and the bigger ambition behind New Zealand Design Week. This is a conversation about vision, resilience, commercial thinking and backing yourself, even when the market is tough.

Jen makes me feel motivated. She backs herself. She is not afraid to put herself out there. There is an incredible drive and capacity for work, but also real clarity about why she is doing it. She is a true example of “just start” - even when the goal feels massive.

I loved my kōrero with Jen and I know you will too.

After this conversation, find NZ Design Week at nzdesignweek.com and @nzdesignweek on Instagram.

Right, let’s get on with the show.
