More than 50% of Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians) were "priced out of paradise" and are now living outside of Hawaiʻi. This presents momentous challenges for an ʻāina based community forced to separate from their homeland.
In this episode, weʻll discuss the benefits and challenges of living in the diaspora and how we can better understand and serve the unique needs of our lāhui no matter where we live.

The Moana Nui Podcast and the Center for Asian Pacific American Women (CAPAW) are proud to present the topic of "Negotiation" as part of our ongoing monthly professional development series.
Negotiation skills are important both in the workplace and in personal life. In the workplace, they help you achieve long-term career success, boost productivity & reduce workplace conflicts. In your personal life, they boost your creative & reasoning abilities, make it more difficult for people to take advantage of you & make you a better strategist. At home, these skills also help you navigate and bring out the best in your most important relationships.
Discussions include:
- - How did you learn to negotiate for yourself?
- - When do you feel the most confident in advocating for yourself and how did you do it?
- - How do you negotiate with yourself around how much time you devote to work, family, community, etc?
Hear from our panelists:
- Roz Huang, Co-Founder and CEO, Athena Music & Wellness, Founder and CEO Dandelion Global, LLC
- Sharmila Fowler – Pos, MBA, MCPC, Head of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Echo Global Logistics
- Sue Ann Hong, President & CEO CAPAW, Moderator

The month of May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. During the month of May, the Moana Nui Podcast will host four panels to discuss various topics.
Hula is the heartbeat of the people of Hawaii. On this panel, we will approach this conversation from different angles and perspectives, from multiple generations and diverse teaching experiences both in and outside of Hawaiʻi. Our panelists help us to understand the kuleana (responsibility) that comes with preserving and perpetuating our cultural practices and the dangers of appropriation when this sacred responsibility is not handled with care, honor, and respect.
Interact, comment, and engage with our conversation with our panelists:
• Hokulani Holt-Padilla - Kumu Hula
• Kanoelani Davis – Kumu Hula
• Michelle Manu – Kumu Lua
• Leialoha Kaʻula – Kumu Hula
