Faith is Akua in motion.
Piha began with a vision of living as one with ʻāina, growing organic food, and creating a puʻuhonua where people can feel safe, reconnect with ʻāina, establish kuleana with ʻāina, learn, and build pilina with one another.
At its heart is aloha ʻāina, a relationship built on reciprocity. When we care for ʻāina, ʻāina cares for us.
He aliʻi ka ʻāina, he kauā ke kanaka.
The land is chief; man is its servant.
We are caretakers of ʻāina, entrusted with the kuleana to mālama her for future generations.
Piha is still growing, and so are we. From learning to live 100% off-grid and regenerate our soils to nourishing our kino and strengthening our pilina, every day brings opportunities to learn.
Piha Life is where I share that journey, the people who inspire us, the lessons we’re learning, and the resources helping us along the way.
Regenerating ʻāina. Nourishing kino. Puʻuhonua.
Welcome to Piha Life. 💜
My journey toward better health changed my relationship with food. I’ve come to appreciate that nourishing our kino begins long before food reaches our table. It begins with healthy soil, the farmers who care for it, the practices that bring life back to ʻāina, and the people who formulate and prepare the food we consume.
Regenerative health is about more than what we eat. It’s about the choices we make every day, the habits we build, and how we care for ourselves so we can continue caring for others and living our best lives.
Through Piha Life, you’ll receive personal experiences, ʻike from farmers and mentors, and practical ways to nourish our kino through regenerative living.

Living 100% off-grid at Piha has taught me that sustainability is about how we live.
From building infrastructure and harvesting rainwater to managing solar energy, conserving water, staying connected without cell service, and composting responsibly, every day brings opportunities to learn and adapt.
Off-grid living comes with challenges, unexpected expenses, and plenty of lessons along the way. But it also brings a deeper appreciation for our natural resources and the kuleana we have to care for them.
Through Piha Life, you’ll gain hands-on experiences, practical solutions, honest accounts of our mistakes, and resources that help us build a sustainable life.
Living simple. Living consciously. Kuleana.

Rooted in aloha ʻāina, natural farming teaches us to work with nature rather than against it. To kilo, understand, and nurture living soil using resources Akua has already provided.
At Piha, we’re practicing HINA (Hawaiian Indigenous Natural Agriculture) under the guidance of Kumu Alika, a master of Korean Natural Farming (KNF). HINA incorporates Hawaiian values, protocol, and ʻike kūpuna.
We’re experiencing the benefits firsthand through more abundant harvests, nourishing and flavorful food, and shorter growing times, all while reducing our dependence on outside resources.
Natural farming is more than growing food. It’s about restoring our relationship with ʻāina, sharing ʻike, and building a kaiāulu of natural farmers committed to regenerating Hawaiʻi, one acre at a time.
Through Piha Life, you’ll share in our experiences, the teachings of our kumu and mentors, practical natural farming methods, and the pilina being built along the way.
Healthy soil means a healthier Hawaiʻi, and our keiki deserve us to step up today.

My Network Marketing journey began in 1994. Over the years, I’ve experienced significant success, unexpected setbacks, and company changes beyond my control.
My experiences were not typical, and I understand that many people in Network Marketing earn little or nothing after expenses.
Our kūpuna understood that ʻike is meant to be shared, not kept to ourselves. What we learn, we pass on so those lessons are not forgotten.
That is why I’m sharing the ʻike gained through my experiences, the pilina built along the way, and the lessons that have taught me to stay true to my core values.
Today, I’m no longer recruiting or building a Network Marketing team. But I’m happy to share my experiences with those who may benefit from an independent sounding board.
Considering a Network Marketing opportunity?
Sometimes it helps to talk with someone who has experienced the profession firsthand. I’m available to listen, share my perspective, and help you consider questions worth asking before making your own decision.
Already involved in Network Marketing and need someone to talk to?
I’ve experienced the highs, the lows, and the unexpected. I’m not here to convince you to stay, leave, or join another company.
I’m simply here to listen.
Your journey. Your values. Your decision.
FAITH > FEAR. One prayer at a time.
