Let's Talk Story with Alyssa and Kupono Detwiler

Running a business is one thing, but running a business from home and trying to manage/balance being a mom at the same time can be... well.... CRAZY! This week we are joined by Kalei Meyer from "Kaleilehua Designs" and she chats with us about how she started her business, life as a mother of two and the new collaboration between The Detwiler Collective and Kaleilehua Designs!!!KALEILEHUA DESIGNS:https://www.etsy.com/shop/KaleilehuaMDesigns?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=1156671629IG: @kaleilehuadesigns

Are we the only ones who have embarrassing moments we can look back on?! It's time for us to expose some of our embarrassing moments growing up. From loosing teeth to some embarrassing stories about using the bathroom...we hope our shocking moments give you a little laughter! 

GIRLS TALK! This weekend Alyssa is joined by three of her friends to talk about comparison, dating culture (church dating culture specifically!) and the important of friendship. Mel, Shani and April are so open in sharing their low moments and how they gained wisdom from those life experiences. Grab a coffee and maybe even a snack and let's have a girls talk! 

GUYS TALK! This week Pono is joined by two of his long time friends, Fred Culp and Gabe Miller. These three have experienced a lot growing up together. From crazy party nights and hangovers to now being married and all having children, their lives have completely changed. Join them as they share some pretty funny stories from their past and also some wisdom they've learned along the way.

Stan? Bet? Sheeesh? What do all of these Gen-Z terms mean, haha?! This week we are joined by two of our favorite high schoolers, Kamalei and Dylan. We talk about the stereotypes put on this generation and how they were able to juggle life in the midst of the pandemic. 

Why is it so important to make time for yourself? We talk about our experience and share a little advice on why it's important to fill your tank. Sometimes we can constantly just give and give and give to others when we need to remember to fill ourselves up first. Self care is super important and we hope this encourages you to take a few minutes out of your day to fill your tank.

This week we are joined by an amazing friend, daughter, sister and mom. Karis is a single mom to her beautiful two year old daughter and we sat down to talk about her life story. She's been through a lot of ups and downs but seeing her grow into the person she is today is amazing. Being a single mom can be really tough but seeing Karis do it is so inspiring and encouraging. 

Teens to twenties... that transition in your life that you thought would be the most fun but in reality can be the hardest time. Whether you are going to college or working full time (and add everything else in between) there's a lot of responsibilities that come with "adulting." In this episode we share our experience with adulthood and try our best to give you some unsolicited advice on making friends, working, time management, finances and more. We hope you are encouraged at the end of this episode, because YOU CAN DO THIS!

This week's episode features our amazing friend, Ufi. She is one of the most genuine people we know. Whenever she walks into a room, she brings so much life with her. We talk with her about growing up in a Samoan household and the cultural differences that that entails. We are always inspired by Ufi and the joyful person that she is and we hope that you will be inspired too. 

Andddd we're back! This is our first episode recorded in real time in our new temporary studio. We fill you guys in on our move from Hawai'i to Alabama and talk about some life updates. We've only been living in Alabama for a little over a month and so far it's been pretty good. We miss Hawai'i but we are also excited for the many opportunities here. Hope you guys enjoy! 

This week's guest is one of Alyssa's sisters, Melissa Vega. They talk about growing up as military kids, learning to be financially independent while living in one of the most expensive states, and embarrassing memories. It's giving... sister vibes and we are here for it.

In this week's episode we have two of our favorite people with us to talk about friendship and how to ship giraffes??? When we think about genuine people who love to invest into others, we always thinks about Jesse Tagura and Melody Badayos. Join us as we talk about how important it is to show people how valued they are by investing into their lives.
