This week’s Memoir Nation show is an exploration of Hawai’i, heritage, and land—part of the story told in guest Sara Kehaulani Goo’s new memoir: Kuleana. Kuleana is a word that means “responsibility” in the most broad terms, but as you’ll hear in this interview, Kuleana can be anything that you are safeguarding for the world. As such, you’ll hear about Sara’s story of Kuleana, and be invited to ponder your own Kuleana, whether that’s your writing or something else you hold sacred. A beautiful episode and invitation!
