What’s In Your Kete? Alana Tukuniu

Alana’s story is one of spiritual intuition, and connection.
After visiting Niue 20 years ago, she felt her tūpuna calling her home. On her very first night there, she knew she wasn’t just visiting—she was staying.

Alana shares how this life-changing decision shaped her journey and how Niue continues to inspire her holistic healing practice. Her kōrero will inspire you to trust your intuition, reconnect with your heritage, and fill your kete with what truly matters.
