Pacific Empowerment
Pacific Empowerment Podcast was founded by a Tongan woman entrepreneur, Akanesi Kaufusi, to uplift and inspire Pacific Island people to take bold action, chase their dreams, and dream as big as they dare. This podcast challenges the limitations of traditional thinking and cultural expectations that often hold our people back. It’s a space to break free from fear, take risks, and rewrite what’s possible - no matter your background or environment. Your situation doesn’t define you. Your vision does.
Pacific Empowerment
Episode 8 - Why Most People Quit Too Soon
In this heartfelt episode of Pacific Empowerment, we honor the life and legacy of George “Fiji” Veikoso, whose journey from humble beginnings in Fiji to becoming the voice of the Pacific is a true testimony of persistence and passion.
We dive into the powerful lesson of Napoleon Hill’s Three Feet from Gold — a story that reminds us why so many give up just before success. I’ll also share my own journey of building Siuhuu and the struggles that test me daily, plus the inspiring story of a Tongan woman who chose long-term investments over quick gains to build a legacy for her family.
This episode is a call to our Pacific people: don’t chase quick money. Instead, build with passion, invest wisely, and create freedom and generational wealth that will last.
If you’ve ever felt like throwing in the towel, this episode is for you - because the truth is, most people give up right before their breakthrough, and I’m here to make sure you’re not one of them.
Help us continue making great content for listeners everywhere.
