Kuʻuleianuhea Awo‑Chun, Director of Education and Culture‑Based Learning at the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, joins us to talk story about ʻāina‑based education, identity, and healing. Drawing from her decades in Hawaiian‑focused charter schools, she reflects on how land teaches reciprocity, how to center children's potential, and why belonging matters in education and healthcare. A grounding conversation on kuleana, community, and remembering who we are.
