It takes work to be invited back to a vibrant space, a deep conversation, and meaningful relationships I'm here to journey with you in the in the in-between as we reimagine the possibilities of a passionate filled life. I am mother, wife and entrepreneur
In this April recap, I pause to reflect on what this month has held—both in remembrance and in movement forward. April marks one year since my brother's passing, and in this episode, I open my heart to what it means to grieve with hope. I share how reading A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis and The Roots of Sorrow by Dr. Phil Zylla has helped me name the layered experience of holding sorrow and healing at the same time. Both voices have reminded me that grief is not a problem to be fixed, but a formational space—a place where deep growth can take root.If there's anything this month has taught me—through the journey of being a mother, wife, business owner, friend, and team member—it's that I am in process. And instead of focusing on what didn't go the way I planned or hoped, I'm learning to look for the evidence of growth. Because it's there. Sometimes small and quiet, but deeply real.I share a few glimpses of that growth—journeying alongside business students from Loyola Marymount University as they wrapped up their group project, celebrating Merrie Monarch and the beauty of cultural legacy, walking through Lent and into the joy of Easter Sunday, and perhaps most personally, transitioning into being the mother of a teenager.This episode is an invitation to reflect on your own process. To hold space for what hasn't gone as planned, while choosing to honor the evidence that growth is happening—maybe not perfectly, but faithfully.

Let's reimagine, reinvent, and reinvite our way through 2025 together. There's power in the opportunity to return to the same location as a different person. That's what my husband and I got to do as we rang in the New Year together in Japan. All the things we thought about who we were, what we wanted, why we were doing what we were doing shaped the moments and years to come but not without major adjustments to what we believed, how we related, and when we chose to say yes and no. We each have the same amount of hours in a day, days in a month, and months in a year, but what we get to create with them is up to us! Here's to the journey ahead together.

Along with the invited back journey of Q4 I wanted to share the books that I got to read this year. Some years required reading is given, this year I got to choose. I'm thankful for the stories told, the journey's shared and the lessoned learned. Here are some of the books I got to read throughout 2024.

April 1, 2024 changed my journey forever and launched a month of experiences I never could have imagined. It was heartbreaking and groundbreaking and just the beginning of a new life without by brother. 8 days after we got the news I traveled to Jacksonville, FL with the WiLD Leaders team to support Dr. McKenna as a keynote speaker and to hold the clipboard for Rob and Dr. Hallak running the day long CEO Forum at the CLA National Conference. Then, my mom and I traveled to Olympia , WA to remember Remy with the people we grew up in community with there, and then on to Nevada to meet up with my Niece at attend the service for my brother with the people who loved him deeply in Yerington. #Life #Loss #Journey #Lead #Travel #Remember #Grow #Learn #Together
You're invited to choose the courage response in this November 2024 recap as I share reflections from this month's readings and experiences. Here's to looking ahead and finishing this year as those who reimagine, reinvent, and reinvite together. #InvitedBack #Courage #Response #Reimagine #Reinvent #Reinvite #November #Recap #SabethKapahu
Through this October recap of Invited Back with Sabeth Kapahu may you be encouraged that what gets measured moves. May you be reminded that the deep and long time friendships that have woven their way through your story matter, hang onto them. Sometimes when plans change, you end up exactly where you were supposed to be, even though you weren't planning to be there, embrace that moment. We are in this together! Get surrounded. Reach out if you need help. Adjust your thoughts and beliefs as necessary. Do the hard work. Continue to reimagine, reinvent, and reinvent others along the way. #invitedback #hilo #aloha #business #life #friendship #opportunity #journey #ask #reimagine #reinvent #reinvite
Remembering and Moving into Q4 with Small, Specific, Intentional Choices: The journey of remembering connects us with our past and carves a pathway through our current reality in ways that we are often unaware of until we pause. Pause to realize that our memories are shaping our reactions, our responses, our hopes, our dreams, and our day-to-day habits and in doing so they are shaping our future and the future of those we journey with. If I am not aware of the way I remember impacting the way I live in my reality. I risk an unaware life on autopilot. This is where our daily habits make all the difference, when how we start our mornings matters, and who we choose to surround ourselves with changes everything. Because, sometimes believing the truth takes hard work, discipline, and hope. It takes working towards a goal we can't see yet. A goal someone else can see for us, can push us towards with love, can speak into when we are at a loss for words. There will be mornings when we'd rather lay in bed and scroll through the lives of others outside our four walls than attend to the humans within them, let alone take care of ourselves. So I ask you, “what do you want?” and “when will they know?” Do you want to wake up 10 minutes earlier? When will your family see you going to bed 10 minutes earlier the night before? Do you want to have more energy mid day? When will your co-workers notice an increase in your hydration? (Hack: fill your water bottle up the night before.) These small, specific, intentional choices change the outcomes of our days, and they begin with what we think about ourselves and what we believe is possible with the time that we have.

Dr. Elizabeth Linsdey asked on LinkedIn recently: If we could give advice to our younger selves, what would you say? This was my response. I would share the following with my younger self: 1) You're never “the only one,” release yourself from shame. 2) Re-parent yourself when necessary 3) Sensitivity to other people's feelings is a great asset. 4) Take ownership, stop blaming. 5) Reimagine the possibilities, every single one of them! I would love to hear what your advice would be! DM me wherever you find yourself on social media. I want to learn from you. #purpose #wisdom #inspirational #reimagine #reinvent #reinvite __________________ Sabeth Kapahu is an entrepreneur with a passion for encouraging people.

Happy Canada Day! Today's Day 26 of my journey in The Kindness Games and my shoutout goes to one of our favorite Canadians Dr. Mark Boda. He carried us through our time in Hamilton, ON Canada with deep kindness and compassion. He teaches me over and over again about the value of relational connection. Thank you Mark for giving hope and help to my husband and I during times we didn't think we'd make it through. Your leadership, care, and kindness has forever changed our lives and I know many more can say the same. I love the following description of the book of Haggai from a volume you edited. It is a picture of what you teach, preach, and live out day after day. You share confident hope of what is coming and what is already here. “The book's creative reconfiguration of Israel's earlier theological concepts enabled this community to adapt to the new and unforeseen conditions of life under foreign rule, affirming that, contrary to appearances, Yahweh's covenant and promises were intact, and his work of renewing his community had begun. Thus, Yahweh's people could labor in confident hope of his coming intervention for them.” - Haggai, Dictionary of the Old Testament : Prophets Authors Mark J Boda J G McConville (J.

It's incredible what happens when you sit in the presence of women who have done the hard work of getting out of their own way. They have laid down their ego. They have learned how to cover and move in ways that make the magic happen. You see it in their smiles. You hear it in their stories. You live it through their actions. I learn from Jamie every time I get to join the Women's Assembly monthly calls. It was an honor to join today and learn from these women. Echelon Front is shaping leaders in ways that will impact generation after generation. My DAY 25 Kindness Games shoutout goes to Jamie Cochran + Jackie Hoffman and the Women's Assembly of Echelon Front. This morning I got to join the monthly conversation. I took the following notes from this morning's meeting titled, “Extreme Ownership is not for me with Jackie Hoffman, ” and walked away with a renewed energy for my role in this world. NOTES: “We own everything in our world: Every problem Every solution Every relationship” - Jackie Hoffman Cover and move is the first law of combat for a reason. It's my ego that gets in the way of teamwork. Ask “How can I make this my fault?” When I take responsibility then I can step up and do something to solve the problem. Stop playing the blame game. EO (Extreme Ownership) is simple, not easy. Trust - Respect - Listen - Influence #leadership #womeninbusiness To watch this episode on YouTube click this link: https://youtu.be/wEB9BWJJWDY
A story about bamboo, business, and friendship: I heard Sarah Mackenzie from Read-Aloud-Revival encourage a group homeschooling moms with the analogy of a bamboo plant. She mentioned that when a person first plants bamboo, they water it, tend to its surroundings, place it in the perfect proximity to the elements needed for growth; then they repeat this cycle for the next five years before any actual signs of growth appear. FIVE years! This doesn't mean that there has not been growth happening, it just means it is not visible to the human eye. The growth is happening underground; in the root system. They are digging deep, and gaining strength. They are positioning themselves for maximum effectiveness for rapid growth. Because when that time comes, bamboo can grow up to 80ft in just six weeks. My Day 24 Kindness Games shoutout goes to Jenn Uren who continues to encourage me to position myself as an entrepreneur and mother. She teaches from experience about setting up systems that help us sustain (a solid root system). She's been supporting me since the days when being a business owner was just an idea. We came together as two strangers to lead a weekly clubhouse room and left that as friends for life. Her faith, her process, her day to day examples exude the joy of doing life together and believe in things we can't yet see. Thank you for believing in me Jenn. Here's to digging deep for roots that grow deep. #thekindnessgames To watch this episode on YouTube click this link: https://youtu.be/Xck7ijqurIE
A Runner's Blessing May your wind be always rhythmic. May your heart be always strong. May your road be always beautiful. May it never seem too long. May your legs be always faithful. May your feet be never sore. May your mind be always peaceful. May you run forevermore. By Daniel Mark Extrom Today's Day 23 of The Kindness Games shoutout goes to those who have run alongside me throughout varying seasons of life. They pushed me beyond my physical limits. They let me sync my step and breath with theirs. They were my companions and the keepers of my dreams. They taught me to develop my stride and edit according to the environment. I think of them each time I hit the road. They encourage me to take one more step forward. There is something really special about meeting up for a run, and I am so thankful for each time I got to do so with these amazing women. #thekindnessgames To watch this episode on YouTube click this link: https://youtu.be/iM8vF9BQSi8 __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

She is beholding and becoming in a landscape that is relentlessly pulling her a million different directions. She is discovering her identity one moment at a time. She watches from the outside while drowning on the inside. It's not easy being in your 20's in 2022 but she is doing it with the resilience and resistance required to sustain.

His voice is one of genuine care. His questions elevate through intentional curiosity. His accolades are built upon foundations of sacrifice. Today's Day 20 of my journey in The Kindness Games shoutout goes to the one and only Tim Wenzel. I literally wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for him.

Veronica was generous with all the hard learned lessons and work she had done sewing into her kids' early education years. She could have easily kept it to herself, but she didn't. She passed it all along, and we are still reaping the fruits of her labor. She was just a few phases ahead of me, but her wisdom was water to my thirsty soul. She encouraged me about the coming seasons that I am living out now. Veronica led me with hope through a season of motherhood I thought I'd never get through. Moms of littles, trust those women who have gone before you. Thank you for always welcoming me into your home, for teaching me how to find a place for everything, and for loving me where I was. You led my heart with kindness, and it has forever changed me. My DAY 17 of The Kindness Games journey goes to Veronica Noreiga. Cheering you on friend!

There's a chance that the person you are hesitant to meet could become one of your closest friends. You'll never know unless you make that first move. Bre has become my confidant and partner in motherhood, moving, and daily life even though we live in the two states that are not actually connected to the contiguous US. We started out as neighbors, the kind you borrow milk from and have over for tea. Then we separated and had to share life through the screen, but our connection only got deeper. She lives with intention and deep faithfulness to the call God has given her and her family. I am thankful for the way our lives have been woven together. I am looking forward to what the future has in store. Here's to stepping out, to saying yes, to being faithful, and to lasting friendship. __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

May today be measured in grace. May you take a deep breath and remember you are the best person for the job. May you take joy in the journey; it's hard but also good. You don't have to be just a mom, or just a businesswoman. You can be both at the same time. You will find a way. You can do an amazing job. Today's DAY 14 of The Kindness Games and my shoutout goes to Tasha Kossler and the MommaLove ladies. Tasha's eye for beauty and balance makes makes better graphic designer. She sees what I can't, and is always willing to help. She carries a weight that many could not through the loss she's experienced but she does so with grace and joy. She celebrates life. She loves unconditionally. She speaks the truth with love. She encourages. We've journeyed together through many seasons and somehow our “this is crazy,” always aligns. Sending all my love to the mommas. May you get a few moments alone in the car today! #TheKindnessGames #leadwithkindness #mom #businesswoman __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

No matter the road we've traveled with our fathers the destination is ours to choose. Will we choose kindness? Father's Day can fill us with a myriad of feelings, memories, and emotions. Our Dad's and those to fill the role in our lives make an impact on each of us. My dad and I have been on a journey full of highs and lows. I continue in the "developmental lab" of leaning in and learning how to respond to our unique relationship. If there is one thing that I can always count on from my dad it is a word of encouragement and a kind smile… you know those kinds that you can feel through the phone speaker. My Kindness Games DAY 14 and Father's Day shoutout goes to my dad and my brother. They are grandfathers, sons, brothers and friends. They are men who have sustained. They are courageous and curious. Through their resilience I have waded through deep wells full of love and forgiveness. I have traveled the journey back to joy even when I thought it was too broken to mend. They have taught me that nothing is impossible, and life is worth fighting for. Happy Father's Day to all the men who are, will be, have been, have filled in, mentor, lead, and love as Fathers. I celebrate and honor you. #thekindnessgames #fathersday #leadwithkindness. __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

Have you read The Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David Mann? I read it every time I need to re-calibrate myself to the foundations of stratospheric success... to give. My Kindness Game DAY 13 shoutout goes to Bob Burg. First through his book, and then through our interactions on LinkedIn, Bob speaks life and truth into my heart time and time again. We never know the weight that our words carry, and Bob shows up with words that change lives. He lives out the laws of Stratospheric Success: The Law of Value: “Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.” The Law of Compensation: “Your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.” The Law of Influence: “Your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people's interest first.” The Law of Authenticity: “The most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself.” The Law of Receptivity: “The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving.” Stratospheric Success begins with kind intentions and solid perspectives. I am thankful for you Bob! Happy Aloha Saturday. #thekindnessgames #thegogiver #bobburg __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

My Aloha Friday and DAY 12 of The Kindness Games shoutout goes to Anna Stone. She leads with words of wisdom and grace in highly stressful situations. She teaches me about the value of good research and even better relationship building. She leads with kindness in ways that make people want to follow. Her experience building and sustaining nonprofit organizations has impacted countless lives throughout the Hawaiian islands and around the world. I am thankful for the ways our paths crossed as we journeyed to China together almost 20 years ago and now that we get to journey together again in new seasons of life.

Candor is kind. Cindy has the ability to make a difference through her whit and candor. She is my DAY 11 shoutout for The Kindness Games. She is grace for the sake of His glory, and grit for the sake of growth. We met because we wanted to do something with our words and we've grown a deep friendship because we make each other better. She gives me words to get through life time and time again. She makes me a better writer because details matter, especially the ones that should be left out. She's kind and honest and that is a gift we all need. #thekindnessgames __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

She's my safe person when I'm not a safe person. (Side note : If you're a women living cyclically then it's likely there are certain times each month you are not a safe person and it's okay. You are normal. The quicker we can embrace this reality the quicker we can give and receive grace in that space. Find your person to share that space with.) Now back to day 10 of my journey in The Kindness Games. Laura Hunter and I met on a trolly headed to Waikiki our freshman year at UH Manoa and we've been journeying side by side ever since. She was an entrepreneur before I even knew what that meant. She is a trailblazer in the world of women owned wine companies in the PNW. Her passion for spreadsheets has guided me through slowly delving into the details. Her friendship sustains me. Her voice fills my heart with joy. She's the person I try to call when I get a free moment in the car. If you are a mom you know how sacred those moments are.Her resilience and tenacity inspire me. Her steady sails lead the way to uncharted adventure. I am who I am because she is who she is. We are constantly changing together, and I am deeply thankful for that. #thekindnessgames __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

Kindness matters and Keli'i lives it. He is a cherished friend and colleague. One does not leave any conversation with him the same as they entered. His words carry weight, wisdom, and intention. I'm thankful for his leadership and ingenuity in my life. He puts people first, and leads his family and community with integrity. My DAY 9 of The Kindness Games shoutout goes to Keli'i Yamashita! Let's keep spreading aloha together.
In the days when Clubhouse was full of serendipitous moments to meet lifelong friends she took a chance on trusting a stranger. My Kindness Games DAY 8 shoutout goes to Meg Glessner. We first met through the sound of each other's voice in various clubhouse rooms about podcasting, parenting, or women in business. She welcomed a newbie to the world she was well acquainted with. Through her leadership relationships opened up to me and a chance to host rooms through Christian Podcast Connect. I have met a group of people who are changing the world by sharing their stories. They are helping others day after day. They are uplifting individuals around the world as they host vital conversations, lay foundations for building legacies, and make space for healing. Meg has been a mentor to me as she builds communities, thrives as a mother and grandmother, and continues to reimagine the possibilities of her resounding yes. https://lettersfromhomepodcast.com/ #thekindnessgames __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

Do you remember who taught you to shake hands properly? Jason Payment was that person for me. The seemingly little things last a long time when done with kindness. Leadership begins with loving people and Jason was the kind of leader that lead and loved in big and small ways. The small ways most often made the greatest impact. __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

“I love you both and know God will see you through. The saints are praying across the miles because we love and believe in you.” - Lori Higashi Today's Day 6 of my journey in The Kindness Games and my shoutout goes to Lori and Guy Higashi. The Higashi's have been believing in us for the last 17 years. It is an immensely powerful relationship to have when mentors push you beyond what you believe for yourself because they see your potential. They have walked with us through our failures and celebrated our successes through many seasons. We wouldn't be here today without them. They lead with kindness; the kind that changes people. They invite others into their ohana. They love deeply. They spread joy and aloha by simply sharing life, all the parts of it. __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

We forged a friendship on the playground, and in her treehouse as first graders. We have journeyed through the jungle gym of life ever since. Her steadfast commitment to lifting others up, especially the little ones who have learned from her year after year is inspiring. She gives all she's got to her people. Thank you Sarah Hannah for inspiring me to stay consistent, to be loyal, and to love well.

When you work in admissions you are the first face that impacts decision making for prospective students. It is a heavy burden to bear and Sara Fusilier does it with grit and grace. My DAY 4 of The Kindness Games shoutout goes out to her and the team at McMaster Divinity College. She led me with kindness when I was the frantic wife of an incoming student who didn't put the proper postage on paperwork traveling from Honolulu, HI to Hamilton, ON. Her steadfast assurance in the people behind the process made all the difference. We've journeyed together ever since. I was just a student's wife when we became friends. Then we got to be colleagues on staff, and first time mothers together. You never know what that first impression will lead to. May we begin with kindness. https://mcmasterdivinity.ca/ __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

My Kindness Games DAY 3 shout out goes to Alan Andersen, with an “en”, a firm handshake, and a cup of black coffee. He loves and sees each person's unique potential. He leads people from experience and empathy. He knows the intricate needs of people because he's done the hard work of getting to know himself. He's been leading me with kindness in big and small ways for three decades. When I first texted him about starting a business he immediately replied back, “LET'S GO!!!” He's one of those people that Tim talked about yesterday. “It is so important to have people around you who push you to be your best.” Alan, thank you for asking the hard questions, for leading by example, and for loving without boundaries! __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

DAY 2 of my Kindness Games journey shoutout goes to none other than my husband Will Kapahu. Was I ready for marriage? NO Are we opposite in many ways? YES Are we the same people that we married 12 years ago? NO Have we learned to love each other one day at a time? YES Marriage is worthwhile work. I don't know if anyone is really ready for it. You live independent lives until the moment you don't. How can you be ready for two sinful, selfish, works in progress to be united under one roof? It takes time to become one. It takes humility, tons of humility! It takes surrender, forgiveness and work! Once you think you've got a rhythm going something unexpected happens forcing you to reimagine what you thought you knew. You begin building a new rhythm. Last year my husband asked me, “Do you want to start a business?” I said, “yes!” We are rebuilding a rhythm for this season. We are on a journey that will last a lifetime. __________________ Kindness Matters: What does Kindness mean to you?

There will be couples who see a counselor for the issues surrounding sexual addiction within marriage, but many other couples will not. Linda Shevkenek, an MA licensed counselor from Canada, has focused the last decade of her practice on helping couples and individuals address sexual addiction. From the safety and convenience of personal viewing space, this conversation will give words to wives preparing for brave conversations addressing sexual addiction. This is a clip from the Stimulate Summit Session: Addressing Sexual Addiction with Linda Shevkenek || https://www.stimulatesummit.com/ Linda explains the arousal template. Understanding of this often brings relief to couples who have misplaced their blame and shame. Sexual addiction is not particular to gender, religion, culture, or status. It usually begins early in life and, if not addressed, causes devastating results throughout adulthood. She shares the real work of crisis management and building back bridges of trust. She talks about what a lifetime of hiding does to a person's heart, mind, and soul, explaining how brain chemistry and bio neuro- pathways shape our habits, fears, and conversations. Addressing suspicious behavior, gaslighting, and trying to control a situation are realities addressed in this conversation as well. Betrayal, pain, fear, and shame are real parts of the journey. But there is also space for courage, restoration and freedom. There is nothing easy about addressing sexual addiction, but there is hope when we make space to begin the conversations towards help, health, and wholeness.

There are times we enter with nothing left to give, but we still step inside. Something powerful and unifying happens when we enter the bedroom naked and unashamed. Becoming rule breakers is a conversation about the gift of sex, the need for self-discovery, and the value of pleasure. Growing up a church girl who followed the rules, had a checklist of husband qualities, and "kissed dating goodbye," the first few years of marriage with sexual desires proved difficult. We choose to show up because we've committed to fight back the darkness of fear, shame, and division. This conversation addresses the mental capacity needed to accept ourselves as wives desired by our husbands. Becoming rule breakers is a choice to reimagine the rules we used to keep and develop an understanding of sexual desire that serves those who will follow in our footsteps as wives. It is the beginning of a conversation leading to liberation in sensuality, and enjoying sex in marriage for what it can be. SPEAKER BIO: Shaina Weisgerber is a Texas girl, born and raised. Writer, teacher, speaker and creative she lives for the wide open spaces. She loves spending time with her husband, Nick, and their two girls and creating things. Whether it's crafts at the table with her girls, creating content for Sycamore and Sparrow, or dreaming up ways to encourage others through WeisCoaching. _________ Sabeth Kapahu is an entrepreneur with a passion for encouraging people. She is a versatile coach, fluid social media strategist, and community initiative developer. She is a wife, mom of four, and friend to many.

We can have the best intentions, but they will remain good ideas if we don't plan to execute those intentions. Kat boils down goal setting to it's essential components. What are we trying to accomplish in marriage's spiritual, relational, and physical aspects? Kat walks us through understanding the goal vs. the problem. She gives examples of common goals to explain the process of solving problems and being consistent. Goals don't motivate us as much as solving a problem does. If we are going to set S.M.A.R.T. goals for our marriage, we need to begin with an honest reflection of the season and status of our spiritual, relational, physical lives as wives. Kat shares how breaking down the process into small amounts of time makes it possible to achieve our goals. Imagine the satisfaction of solving a problem that impacts you and your husband through consistency. She will address the barriers we face and teach us how to set ourselves up for success through accountability.
