Hawaii Real

By Io Keehu

They say the human race is doomed. That mankind is too destructive, incompetent and greedy.

I DISAGREE.

Everyone has a story.
Everyone has a voice.
Everyone has thoughts.
Everyone has heart and soul.

At Hawaii Real we ask Why you are the way you are, Where you are going, What have you done, How can you help? And more.

How To Support Local Hawaiian owned Businesses, Shannon Edie, KUHIKUHI.com #podcast #hawaii

There are so many benefits to supporting Hawaiian businesses! First, let's talk about the economic impact. There are over $5 billion dollars spent in Hawaii every year by tourists on products that are made outside of Hawai'i. It would be great if we could put some of that money into our own economy. Second, local business creates jobs for people who live here. Thirdly, when you buy from someone local it means more than just buying something - it means investing in your communities future!

The Hardest Conversations to have. Jessica Munoz, Ho'ola Na Pua, Child Trafficking Ep#102

“When I first started doing this work, youth were often mislabeled as delinquents, runaways or substance users. But the core issue was that they were being sexually exploited,”

Jessica Munoz is the founder and president of Ho'ola Na Pua organization that she wants you to know how easy it is for kids to get trafficked. You may not realize how much danger your own backyard can be in if you're not paying attention, but Jess will show you that even something as simple as looking at social media posts could put people in grave danger.

The best coaches are those who take time to know their athletes, understand where they want them to be, and then figure out how they will get there. They provide feedback that makes sense and helps their athletes grow into better versions of themselves.

Hawaii COVID Vaccine Mandates? Will You Stand Idly By??

Hawaii COVID Vaccine Mandates? Will You Stand Idly By??

As COVID numbers sky rocket in the State of Hawaii the Governor has mandated testing for all Government employees if they do not wish to get the vaccine immediately.   Should the vaccine be MANDATORY for everyone? Select professions? Select demographics? Or strictly voluntary? 

The Honolulu Mayor has mandated that County employees get vaccinated or face discipline up to termination unless they provide an approved religious or medical exemption.  

Some in the City have stood up and said No.   

I want to hear their story and plight. Where does this end if these mandates are upheld?  Passports? Microchip implants?

Tobacco Soap? 100% Natural ingredients, Kaimuki Startup Business during Pandemic, Living in Hawaii

 Jaime Moniz and John Garcia took a huge risk during the pandemic and launched their home business in the midst of when everyone else was shutting down in 2020.   They found a way to reach their customers through online sales, mail delivery and even curbside pick up. Kaimukisoap.co is dedicated to bringing all natural vegan ingredients to your home in the form of healthy body soaps from Hawaii.

 "Fresh fruits, herbs, and oils are combined for a collection of signature bars that speak to the diversity of our namesake — Kaimuki. Much like residents and visitors to this quaint O‘ahu town, each soap bar has a story to tell."  #tobaccosoap #DurtyBoi #onlyinHawaii  

My favorite is their tobacco bay leaf soap.  Their soaps are made with coconut oil.
