Knowing Where We Come From Matters

Ali and Kate talk about oral history and genealogy and knowing where and who we come from.

About the Guest: 

Kate’s love for the history of the Hawaiian journey to the Pacific Northwest and other points in North America began with her sitting at the feet of her Uncle Paul listening to his stories of the early Kanakas.

Kate has been a musical performer and storyteller for over 35 years. With a passion to better understand her roots, Kate dove deeply into studying Hawaiian culture and history. These blended together creates a powerful atmosphere for her listeners.

Kate’s experiences as a public speaker have placed her in front of audiences from Universities, guided tours, historical societies, churches and museums; where she has shared the rich Hawaiian history of her ancestors.

Her presentations captivate and delight crowds of all ages, Kate makes history as fun as it is informative.

About the Podcast

Find Your Joy
Alison Perry-Davies’s belief is that wherever we come from, we have all known some level of pain, loss and trauma, these things do not need to define us. She doesn’t ignore that these things have happened; however, she decided this is not the way her story ends. Using integrated creative therapies along with sound and vibrational therapies she continues to explore and share complimentary healing modalities.

In this podcast she shares her story as well as having many other people sharing their stories about ways that they have found their healing and their way to find joy. Some of the guests will include authors, artists, painters, singers, songwriters, musicians, doctors, healers of different modalities, people who love to organize people who love to build things, people who find ways of raising dogs and kids and, you know, it really doesn't matter exactly what it is. It's all about finding our joy, and finding a way to make life work.
