Today we will continue our Sustainable Leaders series and have a Talk Story with Blanch McMillen also known as AuntyBlanche. I have been meaning to meet this amazing woman and share her story for a while, and today is the day. She is the founder of Hui Mahi'ai'Āina, a homeless community program that provides village style housing, essential facilities, and long-term support for those facing hard times in Hawaii. Affordable housing for the state of Hawaii is one of our top sustainable initiatives. We are needing solutions to our problems, not bandaids and quick fixes, today we will talkabout solutions that provide hope, promise and a future!Aunty Blanche is a lifelong supporter of Waimanalo, whose unwavering dedication to her community has made her acornerstone of hope and support for Native Hawaiians facing economic hardship. Deeply rooted in faith and compassion, she views herself as “God's instrument,” teaching love and ‘ohana (family) to all those she helps.Motivated by the struggles of her people—many of whom are unhoused and unable to afford living in their ancestralhome—Aunty Blanche took action. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she canvassed the Windward Coast to find and support those in need. With the help of volunteers, she established a homeless encampment on seven acres of vacant land, providing shelter, food, and medical support to over 60 people at Hui Mahi'ai 'Aina. She collaborates with nonprofits, churches, and local groups to keep her community safe, healthy, and housed.Contact Information: Website: Home - HuiMahi'ai 'Āina www.huimahiaiaina.org Email: anuhea00@gmail.com Phone: (808) 482-5883Address: 41-092 Oluolu St, Waimanalo, HI 96795Drop-Off Donation TimesMon – Sat: 9am – 5pmSunday: 9am – 12pmYou can reach Smart Living Hawaii at: Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.smartlivinghawaii.org⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@smartlivinghawaii⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠_orgFacebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SmartLivingHawaii⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.orgIntro/Outro Music Compliments: Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/mountaineer/gotcha⁠⁠

Join me, Dr. BethAnn Kapansky Wright, as we explore November's transformative energy theme, "Focus on the Light," through the lens of the Akashic Records. In this episode of Heart Magic, we reflect on the art of Kintsugi, celebrating the power of our imperfections to create something more beautiful and nuanced. Building on October's empowering theme, we delve into the impact of our individual light, the ripple effects of our awakened hearts, and the possibility of a collective heart chakra awakening. Together, we recognize how each of us contributes to the harmony of the systems around us.With November's Scorpio energy inviting us to seek light in darkness, we journey through profound transformation and expansion. The Scorpio new moon at the beginning of the month sets the stage for new beginnings, urging thoughtful responses rather than reactive actions to world events. As the month unfolds, the first quarter moon offers a moment for reflection, while the full moon in Taurus encourages grounding and the celebration of tangible manifestations. By cherishing life's simple pleasures and creating everyday magic, we enhance our connection to the world around us, fostering personal growth and a collective focus on light.Don't miss next week's Talk Story episode, where I share passages from my books and the inspirations behind them.

Today we will continue our Sustainable Leaders series and have a Talk Story with Rebecca Staron the founder of HI-RES Grant Writing and Consulting. We will learn about the world of grant-writing and what it takes for sustainable nonprofits to secure grants and funding. Rebecca began her career in a small Connecticut restaurant and was immediately hooked on feeding people. She attended Johnson & Wales University earning Bachelors degrees in both Culinary Arts and Nutrition.  During this time, she participated in a term abroad in Singapore and Thailand doing an intensive study of South East Asian cuisines, it was here she fell in love with international cuisine, spicy foods, and traveling.  After over 20 years in various facets of the food service industry Rebecca decided it was time for a change; however, her passion still remained food and feeding people.

Through grant writing she discovered that she can take the knowledge and experience she's amassed over the years and help communities in ways that she had never imagined before. She is very passionate about food literacy and expanding access to healthy foods for everyone through improved food systems, hands on education, and sustainable farming and gardening programs. Her and her team work in Hawaii and across the United States to help organizations find and secure funding to elevate their work and create a positive impact.
