Faith in God - what the cross means to have hope.

This is the official first episode of “Healing with Aloha” podcast that originally launched on SoundCloud. The inspiration of this episode was the song “Champion” by my favorite music group “Common Kings” featuring “Kat Dahlia.”

Aloha! We are dealing with our fears of tomorrow during this time. Yet, hope trumps our fears and enables us to get through these difficult times. It’s okay to not be okay. We need to rely on hope.

Globally we are facing fears of what to do personally and for our families in regards to the the corona virus. This is new and it’s normal to have fears of the unknown. Yet we can lean into our fears and protect our peace of mind. Sending tons of love and aloha. You are loved during this time. May you find hope and healing daily.

May you do what makes you happy. Transition yourself to do what makes you happy and to provide for yourself and your family. Live an ABUNDANT life not people pleasing others. 💓 Grandma 👵🏼 shared her wisdom in February 2019 to “Do What Makes You Happy because in the end you have no one to blame.” This is dedicated to my SUNSHINE ☀️ GRANDMA. I love and miss her with every beat of my heart. Resting in love since September 2019.

At some point, you have to realize that some people can stay in your heart but not in your life. For some as a child it wasn’t a safe place growing up. You felt unloved and now you are an adult. This message is for you 💗 Sending all my love to you 💗 Stronger than you were yesterday.
