We love you, K.

Over the last couple years, K'Lee has been a familiar and much-loved voice for Flava listeners, bringing energy, authenticity, laughter, and plenty of unforgettable moments to the breakfast show. Her journey at Flava has been about more than just radio. She has been a champion for Māori voices, using her platform to inspire conversations and uplift the communities she proudly represents. 

Reflecting on her time at Flava, K'Lee says she's grateful for the relationships, memories, and opportunities that have come with being part of listeners' mornings.

𝐄𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐮 𝐭𝐨𝐚 𝐢 𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐚 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐡𝐢, 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐢 𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐚 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐢 - 𝐦𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲.

And that's exactly how I feel. Everything I've been able to do here has been because of the people beside me, the whānau waiting at home for me, and you whānau, the people listening. - K'Lee

While it's the end of a chapter on Flava Breakfast, K'Lee leaves behind a legacy of warmth, humour, and connection. Her impact on the station and its audience will be felt long after her final sign-off.

The entire Flava team would like to thank K'Lee for her incredible contribution and wish her every success in her next adventure. As one chapter closes, another begins, and while listeners will no doubt miss hearing her each morning, there's no doubt K'Lee's next move will be one to watch.
