Kuilei Courageous Conversations
Kapi‘olani Community College is an extremely special place because we are named after Queen Julia Na-pela-kapu-o-Kakaʻe Kapi‘olani. The Queenʻs motto is Kūlia i ka Nu’u, Strive for your Highest, which can be felt through the words in our podcast. Kuilei Courageous Conversations hosted by Kapi‘olani Community College’s Kuilei Outreach Program is a series of talks and interviews around students success through the lens of our students, staff, and faculty. We will cover topics around our outstanding community of students and employees, the application process, how to finance college, and other exciting highlights that make Kapi‘olani Community College the place to Kūlia i ka nuʻu, strive for your highest. We truly appreciate the opportunity to share what we have to offer. Check us out at www.kapiolani.hawaii.edu. Mahalo.

Thank you for tuning into another Kuilei Courageous Conversations podcast. In this wonderful episode, we talk story with Ohana Waikiki East by Outrigger General Manager, Mrs. Kiana Beimes. This honors graduate from Kapiʻolani Community College's Hospitality and Tourism Program (she also won an Outstanding Student award...just sayin') provides FABULOUS insight on what it means to take on challenges, face your fears, reframe obstacles, and to stay humble. We were also joined by Kapiʻolani CC Hospitality and Tourism Faculty (and former Department Chair), Dr. Dave Evans who provided some amazing stories about Kiana.
Please enjoy and share widely!
