Week 1 Manaʻo for Cohort Kaulua October 3, 2025

On this first day of our October session of Cohort Kaulua, I feel immensely grateful for everyone showing up, trusting the process, and joining us in this journey. Our volunteers helped the morning to run smoothly and lighten the load of our core team, truly exhibiting the value of laulima. I’m also grateful for my morning Pilina Circle and my wonderful co-facilitation partner Jourdan for making our time together so rich and meaningful. Mahalo to Punihei, Chris, Linda, Tenaya, Lucas, Lingie, Kristin, and Siobhán for co-facilitating Pilina Circles as well. What a wonderful way to spend our Friday sharing stories with one another! Our team is eagerly, excitedly, and happily looking forward to the future Fridays of our time together and how our pilina will continue to blossom.
