200 Episodes Later: 7 Things I Wish I Knew Before My First Hawaii Trip

Описание: What if the biggest mistakes I made in Hawaii weren't about what I did, but how I showed up?


After 200 episodes and 30 trips, I'm sharing seven hard-won lessons that changed how I experience Hawaii and travel everywhere else.


You'll walk away with a clearer sense of what respect really means, why slowing down creates better memories, and how to see Hawaii as more than just a backdrop.

👉In this episode, you will:

• Understand why Hawaii is a living culture, not just a vacation setting, and how that shifts your entire experience
• Learn why planning ahead in 2026 protects your trip instead of limiting it
• Discover how slowing down and exploring beyond Waikiki creates the memories that actually stick
