"No New Things has given me a sense of clarity and a sense of wellbeing. As a leader and mother, I am prioritising the wellbeing of others all the time, and this programme taught me how to remember to support my needs as well. I've tapped into my purpose, now know how to ask for help, be present, analyse my stress response and to deepen my connection with my body. What I loved most about this programme was the community, the different perspectives and how that helped me shift my mindset, and the amazing energy everyone brought. My biggest 'aha' moment came through releasing my limiting beliefs and getting inspired to create stories that support myself and my goals. The impact this programme has had on me has been that I have created more space for me so that I can serve my family and work better. I've shifted from feeling stressed and anxious to feeling more calm and seeking clarity and purpose. Gemma, thank you for the accountability and words of wisdom!"

 "No New Things was an eye-opening experience which has given me the tools to tune into my intuition and find myself again. I have found strength in my no, know how to put myself first, and I have learnt how to sit in the uncomfortablness of my own emotions and experiences. Not only that, I can practise self-compassion as I work through them. Gemma made me feel supported to accomplish my goal of feeling more connected with my intuition. The impact of No New Things on my life is that I finally feel like I am 'normal' for having human experiences and emotions, and that I can heal and find strength in the abnormal experiences I have gone through - I choose how I can move forward and retake control of my life. What I found really helpful was that you really listened and let me choose how I wanted to move forward, which made me feel like my healing journey is something I can work through. This experience completely changed my year and life for the better! #therearenonewthings - thank you Gemma!"

"If you're feeling uncertain about life, working through trauma, or looking for guidance on how to listen to your body, this programme is for you! What helped me the most inside No New Things was the reassurance that I have the key to make things happen for myself. Before the programme, I was struggling to understand why I was feeling the way I did, and I didn't know what my next step in life was. Now, I'm aware, in touch with my intuition, and can ground my energy and listen inward and know that my purpose is music.  I've realised my worth, what my strengths are and how to use them. I am saying yes to growth and have made some big changes to support my next steps in my career. I feel like I'm more in the present, in touch with my hinengaro and tinana whereas before it was hard to pinpoint my triggers. I have changed for the better and know how to move forward  in life in a way that benefits me and my son. I have so much to celebrate, including my belief in who I aspire to be, my passion for music, and how much the relationships with my son and family have improved. No more people-pleasing...I can choose me!"

"No New Things taught me that I can come up with my own answers, believe in them, and drive hard to achieve them."

Amy

"This programme was life changing. I now know I have everything I need to achieve my higher purpose and have a massive impact on the world."

"The group aspect of the programme was something I was really hesitant about, but it was one of the best parts. The support and guidance from my cohort was an unexpected bonus! Hearing different perspectives and experiences, especially from a professional space, held so much value. The collective knowledge of the group and their support in sharing it is something I'm so grateful for. The positive outcomes from this programme have been HUGE. The skills, tools and awareness gained from No New Things have been transformational. Gemma creates such a sacred container for growth in her No New Things programme. She was 110% dedicated, present and in tune with our cohort. I'm so grateful to have gone through this programme with her guidance and now to be part of the No New Things community of like-minded people."

Ashlee

"I am so grateful I found Gemma and her programme! No New Things was exactly what I was looking for, it gave me the tools and resources I needed. The weekly group calls helped to keep myself accountable. I was able to push through discomfort and grow both in my business and personal life."

Esther

"No New Things was the antidote I needed for this next chapter of my life. What I loved most about the programme was that I could just show up as I was for each of the calls...without the mask. The programme showed me how to practise compassion towards myself, how to show up even when it's really hard, how to listen to my intuition and that incredible opportunities land my my way when I do. I received funding for my start-up, landed a part-time job with my mentor, enrolled and was accepted into my favourite subject at Massey Uni, and have received incredible support throughout this programme. I have reconnected with my authentic self through the healing journey No New Things offered me. Before the programme I was struggling with people-pleasing, boundaries and confidence and now I have transformed my self-esteem, find joy in what I'm passionate about, and know how to honour myself. I'm still healing and growing but I've seen my confidence increase and people-pleasing decrease. I love me now. Thank you for promoting the power of self-leadership and honouring where people are at on their spiritual journey Gemma!"

"If I could sum up this programme for me, I would say joyful...it's given me a space to ground my energy, add to my life tools and be proactive in my healing journey. Practising these tools and the rituals Gemma shares has supported me to feel more stable and grounded, and I notice I don't spiral as often. After finishing No New Things, I'm most proud of my ability to be consistent. What I loved most about the programme was the content...it made me question myself in the most beautiful way. After finishing, I'm realising that I’m only now tapping into creativity and curiosity which I can’t believe I went so long without (at least in my personal life not work life). The programme helped me connect with feeling immense joy again, which is linked to finally feeling “safe”. The shadow work helped me further heal in my sexuality and in relationships with woman, and I now can value uniqueness and depth...both in myself and others. It's funny because I felt really good before the programme, and looking back now I can see that this has taken my life from good to great. Dedicating time to myself inside No New Things shifted me from a reactive state to a proactive state with my mental health."

"I have the tools to guide me to drop into my intuition and to live in an aligned way.

[Before working with Gemma] I felt like the princess and the pea. I had this pea at the bottom of my bed that I had explained away, or was too busy to feel, or I thought it was silly to feel that way so I didn't feel it at the time. 

Even though I'd logically explained my way out of [my feelings], because I didn't feel the emotions, they stuck around. [Moving through] this has allowed me to have relationships that don't harbour grief and resentment.”

Briana

"The weekly video content and worksheets are brilliant. I've gained awareness of the patterns that weren't serving me, and the education on how to change them. I now feel a stronger sense of connection and joy with people, can realise and celebrate my own strength, and trust myself more than I ever have before. And trusting myself means that my anxiety  has reduced...I don't need to control the outer world anymore because I know my inner-world is enough. Years later this programme continues to have a positive impact on my life, and I still use many of the tools I learnt inside the programme, and know that my wellbeing is my responsibility."

Rangipare

"No New Things supported me to strengthened my relationship with my own worthiness which has improved my relationship with myself, my partner and our baby. I've got so much to celebrate, including my ability to move through the discomfort of the learnings and to choose vulnerability. What I loved the most was the content...it was delivered to such a high standard. My biggest breakthrough came from transforming the belief I have in myself which taught me that I'm worthy of communicating my needs, taking responsibility for my wellbeing and giving myself what I need. I am consciously choosing to access my sensual, divine and feminine state...this is the authentic me."

Gary

"What I loved most about the programme was being held accountable to action by Gemma and my fellow Cohort. The friendships that get created, and having a safe space to honestly share our thoughts and feelings as we apply the inner-work to our lives was a highlight. We weren't getting treatment from a therapist, we were travelling on a mutual journey with you. For 15 years I have unwittingly held prejudice against myself, restricting myself from doing things because of my physical disability. This programme was the end of that fallacy, and I now let myself try new things - I'm not afraid to do that anymore because of my disability. I appreciate myself more, and as someone who loves to give and help others, now know how to give that same love to myself.
