Meet the girl behind Girl in Motion.
Hi, I'm Nat — a migrant woman in Aotearoa and the founder of Girl in Motion.
I've been calling Aotearoa home for 24 years. In all those years, I kept asking myself the same question: why aren't we celebrated more?
The migrant women I know are some of the most courageous, brilliant people I've ever met. We packed our bags. We started over. We're building lives, raising families, growing businesses. We should be heroes.
But the migrant story in Aotearoa has focused on what we lack, not what we've built. And the spaces I could find for us felt the same — grey, dated, missing the colour and vibrancy we actually bring.
So I'm building the one I was looking for. Girl in Motion blends community and tech, story and platform. Finally, ours.
If you've got a dream, I want to hear it.
