Freedom like that !
Sooo back, and sooo full🤲🏽 Re/turning + re/see-ing the world with new eyes has transformed me (what feels like) many times over now. Continuing to lean into the sweetness that this life continues to gift me, and being able to enjoy it with loved ones while I arrive. Buckled in for the ride yeeeee!
Lil Sim1’s biggest hula girl dream was fulfilled this past weekend!💛
I still feel like I’m floating after touching the Merrie Monarch stage for the first time. Filled with so much deep deep love and gratitude to complete this first MM journey. I have been working towards this moment for a long time, and nothing about it has been linear. I actually came down with some sickness mid-trip, but thanks to my hula sibs I was nurtured back to health so I could finish strong (pictured above lmao)
Truly community made. I am able to be fierce and strong because of my peoples. I really felt all the love over seas at home and physically in Hilo (cus all my family mobbed deep they really luv me fr fr)!
Thank you to everyone that has lifted me up in this journey. It’s a true honorable position to serve as messenger, storyteller, vessel- this was our gift to you Hawai’i!
From deep east Oakland to Hilo we made itttt yeeee!
The fly girl chronicles continue. Cheers to 23 rotations!⭐️ This glo is brought to you by the loved ones that hold me down and lift me up earth side and beyond (& by minding my business oup)
This past year has taught me what it means to love & grieve, give & receive, rest & play. Everything in between too. Such a sweet sweet life, excited for more 🍯
