In no way, are we, am I “certified, an expert, have the credentials” to advise, coach, or mentor anyone on “finding your place” in this vast black hole of masterclasses, money/business/life coaches available to you but in doing this work for the last 10 years (way before Lady Pasifika) there’s been nuggets of wisdom thru trial and error, feedback, reading, learning from others, etc. that I’ve picked up along the way and let me tell you, the past 2 years have been the messiest. These little nuggets I’d like to share as I feel there are MANY of us, trying to navigate our way thru life whether on and/ or off social media and sometimes we just need a little help. Hoping this helps anyone out there just surfing the web, scrolling, searching, etc. I’m with you, searching, learning, yearning, etc. and never will be done learning ever. #iamladypasifika
With our Summer issue underway, there is still the threat of COVID-19 rampant in the islands and across the globe, yet many remain unvaccinated. This is an interesting time in our communities and of course, we want the safety and health equity for our communities in the region but also want to open up this very sensitive conversation for different points of view on why many of us (Pasifika communities) are hesitant and/ or completely against the COVID-19 vaccination(s). There is a very deep history of mistrust of our communities in our governments but we want to know more from you. Please DM us with your insight or if you’d like to share your manatu (thought) in the comments please do BUT, please keep your comments, whether you are FOR or AGAINST, the vaccine(s), respectful. This is an open discussion to help bring some insight on both sides on a deeply personal topic. The only way forward to is open up these conversations, address the wounds and find a way forward together. Division is not our way. Please help us by providing your thoughts. We are open to DM also if you’d like to remain anonymous. Fa’afetai lava! #iamladypasifika #toughtalanoa #warriorissue #summerissue #covid19
Just had me some coffee (my morning routine!) and she’s feeling goood! Gratitude, confidence, excitement, inspired, etc. all vibes I’m so grateful to be in at this moment. This post is for my sisters across the Moana dealing with low vibrational sh*t praying for a way out, praying for a sign, praying for wellness, I don’t have all the answers but seeking purpose and your passion and truths, living those truths and tuning out all the noise/ distractions, is a step I took and brought me out of a lot of self doubt (although I still have moments of self doubt-it’s a process sis) and anxiety about “how, when, etc.” Set the vision, write it out, journal it out, talk to the Universe, Divine, God, your Ancestors about it, believe, know, trust they will come to pass and continue taking steps (aka TAKE ACTION) towards your vision(s). This did not happen overnight nor are we stopping anytime soon. It’s a marathon baby, building genuine connections and relationships over time, with the right people at the right time. Enjoy your week sisters while I enjoy my coffee and get back to work. #morningthoughts #coffeemoments #iamladypasifika #purposefulposting #purposeoverpopularity #youabadassbish #celebrateYOU #PasifikaGirlMana
