Aloha mai kākou, friends! 🌺 Welcome back to the Moana Nui Podcast and our empowering mana bomb segment. Today, we're diving deep into the world of expectations and the inevitable disappointment they often bring. Whether it's expecting others to act a certain way or setting impossibly high standards for ourselves, we're all guilty of it. As someone who battles with perfectionism, I totally get it!

Join us as Kanoelani Davis shares the wisdom and manaʻo that has guided her through life's challenges. We explore the impact of expectations on our mental health and relationships, and how shifting from expectations to acceptance can open up a world of possibilities. It's all about communication, understanding, and letting go of what we can't control.

Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that touches on everything from family dynamics and work partnerships to the pressures of being an overachiever. Let's learn to embrace our kuleana, accept what is, and move forward with an open heart and mind. 🌈

Mahalo for joining us on this journey. Remember, you're not alone in this. Let's keep the mana flowing and continue to grow together. Until next time, a hui hou! 🤙

Aloha, welcome to another exciting episode of the Moana Nui podcast, recorded live at BlerDCon 2024! We had the pleasure of sitting down with the incredibly talented Atandwa Kani, who you might recognize from his role in Black Panther. But today, we're diving deeper into his journey, family, and the importance of representation.

Atandwa shares heartfelt stories about working alongside his father, who played his on-screen dad in Black Panther. It's touching to hear about their unique father-son dynamic both on and off the set. Ever wondered what it's like when the actor you admire at work is the same guy who reminds you to do the dishes at home? Atandwa spills the beans on that!

We also explore the powerful impact of Black Panther on young viewers of color, and how seeing heroes who look like them can inspire dreams and break barriers. Atandwa passionately talks about celebrating African culture and its rich history, emphasizing the importance of unity and authenticity in storytelling.

And of course, we had to ask about the meaning behind his beautiful name, Atandwa, and what South Africa means to him. His love for his homeland shines through, and he paints a picture of its tranquility and his deep-rooted connection.

Finally, we chat about the evolution of diversity in Hollywood and global media. Atandwa shares his thoughts on the ongoing mission for inclusivity and equality, urging us all to keep pushing for change and never settle for complacency.
