Episode 19 - Is It a Kava Problem or an Individual Problem?

In this powerful episode, I dive into two major conversations happening right now - one global, one close to home.First, we look at the historic peace deal between Israel and Palestine that was signed this week - a moment the world has waited decades for. I break down what this agreement means, the background behind the conflict, and why this event is being called one of the most significant milestones in modern history. We’ll also explore how this peace deal connects to us here in the Pacific, our faith, and what lessons we can take from it as people who value unity, forgiveness, and peace.Then, I turn to a question that’s been flooding my social media lately: “Is kava the problem, or is it the individual?” This topic has sparked passionate debate across the Pacific. I unpack the cultural, health, and spiritual sides of kava - exploring where tradition ends and abuse begins, and how we can reclaim balance in our communities.Join me as we connect global headlines with Pacific realities - faith, culture, and the deeper meaning behind peace, both in the world and in our homes.Support the showHelp us continue making great content for listeners everywhere.Sign the Petition to ban tou'a and protect women and children.            https://pasifikaempowerment.org/campaignsYou can watch the video podcast on https://www.youtube.com/@pacificempowerment
