Seriously?! Another one coming our way?!

I had to get this out. It’s been non stop here on the islands and Kaua’i has a LONG road to recovery.

Breathe deep friends ❤️‍🔥

If you’re looking for me, you will find me deep in the water, in peace & tranquility far away from the hustle & bustle of the human world.

I never understood why the little mermaid wanted to escape to the human world, do you? 🤔

I’m also under the water keeping clear of the hurricanes that keep bashing our beloved Hawaiian Islands! 🌀 😂 🏝️

Many thx to the talented crew at Submerge for my once in a lifetime experience learning how to be deep underwater sans regulator. What an experience it was! 🔱

Mahalo to seastar DIana The WonderFish 🧜‍♀️💫 for the use of her Mertailor Twisted Cichlid tail & Merman Chatravee for the use of his corset belt thingy. 🙏🏽

The second interview with my brother Ted Cheeseman of Happywhale is out! 🎉

My first interview with him was created 2.5 years ago. I figured it was time to create an updated video with all the progress Happywhale has achieved in the last years.

👉🏽 Link to interview in comments 👈🏽

In this interview, Ted shares an update about the important work Happywhale is doing tracking whales around the world, how successful it’s been in aiding whale science and inspiring stories infused from a lifetime of being a whale watcher.

Other topics include: Ted's spiritual connection to whale: I always love to infuse spirituality into a topic and although Ted is a scientist, it is truly his love for whales and his love of nature (which our beloved parents taught us) that fuels his work.

Stories: Ted shares inspiring stories to give much needed hope for the state of the world, the ocean and the incredible cetaceans we call whales.

In big sister style, I thought I would get creative and wove in some childhood and family photos. I thought some of you would get a kick of seeing younger kid photos of us. (Yes, there was a time when I towered over Ted, but that day rapidly vanished when he hit the age of 13. Since then, I have needed binoculars to see the top of his head! 🤣)

Words cannot express how PROUD I am of Ted for his success with Happywhale!

I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Posing in a cave 40 ft down in the depths below the ocean took great courage & truly pushed me past my comfort zone‼️

Scuba diving down, removing the regulator, trusting the safety diver team at Submerge & Turquoise Divers to tend to me. This was a huge accomplishment and one that reminded that I can do whatever I put my mind to, as long as I am dedicated to the goal at hand. 🙌🏽

Facing fears is real‼️

F - False
E - Evidence
A - Appearing
R - Real

I remind myself this constantly when I am faced with another scary thing, like the non stop storms & hurricanes that have been effecting our beloved Hawaiian Islands the last two months. 🌀

We are so much stronger than we think we are ❤️‍🔥

Mahalo to the Submerge team: The Everyday Mermaid©️ Justin Lutsky Brooke Adair Walters Turquoise Divers for helping me face my fears! ♥️🙏🏽♥️

This is one of many photos, isn’t it gorgeous?

It’s SO extremely beautiful to see the Kaua’i community step up to help one another after Hurricane Lowell, close to two weeks ago.

Do you want to help and are not sure how to?!

There are many people who are giving generously out of their own wallets, sharing time and resources to help those in need now.

I found a group of people through the coconut wireless who are arranging for food to be made and given for free to the north shore community everyday. Hundreds of people who have experienced damage to their homes, still don’t have electricity, water or a way to communicate with the outside world are being taken care of. Brava Kaua’i community!

I recently connected with Palika, Paulina and others who are helping the Kilauea, Haena and Wainiha communities and asked if I could help.

Today I went to Costco and spent $392.07 of my own money to buy all these groceries. I was supposed to buy beef for stew but I knew I would not have enough for it.

If you feel inspired to help on a ground level the people of Kaua’i, I would be happy to take Venmo donations to cover these expenses and do future shopping trips for the Kaua’i community. ♥️

It feels so good to give back to those in need.

I am happy to offer my time and try to raise money, so the generous people who are doing this don’t have to consistently pay out of their own pocket.

Please PM me if you feel like donating and I can give you my Venmo address.

Mahalo for caring. 🙏🏽

There is much to be done to rebuild after Lowell, it’s hurt the community in a devastating manner, where many people have lost everything, their homes, jobs and so much more.

Aloha friends, I thought I would take a break from posting about the hurricane to post something joyful! I recently made these stickers that I am so proud of! (No, I did not draw them, I commissioned an artist and she drew them and I got them printed.)

Would you buy a sticker or stickers like this? Should I post them on my website?

I am PROUD to say the whale stickers are WHALE SCIENTIST APPROVED, which is no easy feat! 🤣 My brother is one of the top world whale scientists, creator of Happywhale and I ran the whale sticker design back and forth with him a million times..

"No, the eye is off"

"No, the fluke needs to be higher up"

And on and on it went, it was quite comical really!

So, you know if you get a whale sticker, it will be anatomically accurate. 🤣

I have more sizes too, this is just a sample. Please let me know if I should post these for sale on my website!

Mahalo ♥️🧜🏽‍♀️♥️
