When the Grocery Bill is Higher than the Car Payment
Returning empty-handed from the grocery yesterday, where bare shelves confronted my search for the oh-so-topical egg, created a Schedule Shift because this conversation with Ira Bailey is about managing food costs, building community, and working with farmers. Ira is the Founder of Coshop.nz, a community-led food platform in New Zealand that aims to directly reconnect communities with growers and farms, through collective purchasing; providing fresher, healthier food with minimal carbon emissions. Coshop has recently been awarded multiple government grants, emphasising the validity of the endeavour and allowing further development. Coshop partners with two charities, Hauora Kai and Kaibosh, and their websites can be found below. There's little to stop you from doing something similar in your neighbourhood; farm-to-table for the home! Next week: Back to our previously promised Shelley Henkel, who amongst many other things, is qualified in Somatic Based, Trauma-Informed and Responsive Yoga, allowing her a deep understanding of the neurological impact from trauma. She shares this knowledge with clients, showing them how to release built-up emotion, pain, and anxiety through connection to the body. When embarking on any transformation programme, Shelley's insights will be invaluable for your success. ====================== Get in touch with Ira: Charities: If you'd like to come and have a chat with me, leave a note and let's explore the concept. @eli-b123.bsky.social elizabeth@neoconnections.com.au
