Native Hawaiians are natural born storytellers w/ much to tell. Ancient knowledge, history, + practices literally survived thousands of years, proving that we mastered the art of storytelling.
The passions of my people inspire me most. What’s important to them is important to me. I want to amply their stories, inform the masses, and elevate good intentions.
I help mission driven brands, community leaders, nonprofit organizations, cultural practitioners, artists, Hawaiian entrepreneurs, and anyone else ready to do some good. (And the underdogs!)
I believe in the power of influence. Whether it’s found through words, visuals, people, actions, etc. We were born into this world ready to influence and be influenced. This is how ideas spark, change is stimulated, choices are made, growth evolves, beliefs are strengthened, relationships are formed, and preferences develop.
Through creativity, innovation, and leadership, we have access to that magical phenomenon. What we do with that magic divides us between good+evil. By telling stories and striking emotion, we can connect personally, locally, and even globally.
Why does this matter? Because as a business, whatever your purpose may be, this is the ultimate goal. Don’t think of sales and money. We need to look at how we want to influence people. That’s the reason to exist. Achieve success with genuine intentions for the greater good of the world.
Your influence is what you want to leave behind when all is said and done.
