Finding Lōkahi with Shawn Uehira
Shawn Uehira joins us in this episode of "Above the Sides" to share about her experience integrating Hawaiian values into her relationships, life, work and education. Shawn was a former employee at Oʻahu Economic Development Board after graduating from college and in our discussion she highlights some of her experiences with Uncle Pono Shim and how she continues to weave his teachings into everyday decisions through finding lōkahi (harmony, unity, unbrokenness). As a graduate student at Chaminade University, Shawn also co-authored a book, Hawaiian Values for Future Leaders, which focuses on leadership development for island organizations. Enjoy!
