Aloha friends! I just wanted to reintroduce myself since I’ve been MIA for a bit (My original intro is somewhere below 😉). My name is Michelle A. G. Ebalaroza Kawano—I’m an award-winning author, speaker, artist, and creative coach. But more than that, I’m a woman on a mission to help others rise, heal, and walk boldly in the fullness of who God created them to be. I’ve spent years pouring into my education—gathering wisdom from classrooms, certifications, and life itself. Now, I’m sharing those tools with the world… not just through my books and art, but by speaking life wherever God opens the door. That’s why I’m actively growing my speaking business alongside my work as a published author and visual artist. I'm still looking for those paid speaking opportunities but I know when creativity is aligned with calling, and your voice is rooted in truth, it becomes a force for transformation. As a creative coach, I help others embrace their identity, express their testimony, and turn pain into purpose. Whether it’s through writing, painting, or public speaking, I walk alongside Kingdom Creatives ready to rise and be seen. ✨ That’s why I started the Voices of ALOHA Movement— A faith-driven initiative created to help everyday people turn their testimonies into legacies of hope, healing, and impact. It's not just a book series—it's a call to remember that your voice matters. 🎙️ And through the Walking In ALOHA; Let’s Talk Story Podcast, I provide a safe and sacred space where real stories rise, shame falls, and voices are honored. 👉 It’s through both the Voices of ALOHA Movement and the Podcast that I’m inviting others to share. If you have a TMI story—not “too much information,” but a Transformational, Motivational, and Inspirational testimony—I’d love to hear from you. This platform is still growing, and I welcome new voices from all walks of life. 📩 DM me “TMI” if you're ready to share your story. No pressure. Just presence, purpose, and power. Through my company, Blessed To Be A Blessing Worldwide, I’m building bridges of hope—one voice, one book, one story at a time.
