Which local cafes make the best coffee?

Brittany Keogh Reporter from North Harbour News

Hi neighbours, we all know Kiwis love coffee but a survey has found that Auckland coffee drinkers are more likely to buy their coffee than Kiwis from the regions. A third of Aucklanders buy at least half of their weekly coffees and most preferred a flat white. How often do you buy coffee out?

Mum's On Purpose in 2020?

Anthea from Lifestyle Happy Place

I absolutely Love being a mum. And Love being in control as well.🤣😂🙏

I absolutely Love being a mum. And Love being in control as well.🤣😂🙏

Hey, I'm Anthea, I think I'm pretty approachable and my friends would probably say I'm outgoing as well.

Why I say that is because I believe every mum can absolutely achieve what they want in life and I'd like to be available to any mums her need an ear to vent.

I just want to say, Just because you have babies doesn't mean your career and life has to stop for you.

I chose to keep moving forward after I had my first baby. I changed careers and did a 3 year bachelor's degree with a toddler.

It wasn't easy that's for sure! But the hard work, is all apart of this journey we are on. The result, was a great job, good money and stability.

So if it seems like something is going to be hard, take a GOOD LONG LOOK AT THE OUTCOME! That is what really matters. Not the hard work!

If you need more support we have a community of driven and on purpose mums creating amazing lives for themselves, including myself. We all run online businesses and we get to make life happy on our terms and we love it! Happy to share click the link for more info.

Good luck mums! I'm here for ya! You can do it!🧡♥️🌈

Currently improvements to this section of road are at least 10 years away and by then the congestion will be diabolical.
Please sign the petition by clicking the link below:

It is very important to get as many signatures as possible so ask your friends to sign as well.
Thank you
