On some Top Chef vibes, we pulled off a 40-person dinner at my farm site in Waimānalo for my 40th bday. Ambition is my third middle name, right after adventure and audacious. All I want is to feed my people. My life is a sacrifice to what matters most.

If you were at the pajama jam on the rooftop of my BK crib for my 28th, then you already know,I love taking care of others, especially on my birthday. I live a good life, but it feels miserable if my people aren’t on this journey with me. I’m not really living unless we’re all living.

Enter Chef @rebelkimmay . I gave a soft version of this whole spiel when I was looking for someone to help cook up this experience. Not gonna lie, I didn’t have big expectations. I wasn’t even sure I could pull it off. But when Kimmy told me this was the kind of project they’d been dreaming of, I knew we were in alignment. I’m a firm believer in the power that shows up when two or more come together. Maybe that’s why the Most High’s kept me in a season of solitude—so I understand the value of real connection.

Long story short: we did it.

Big love to the folks at @kualoagrown for providing theextra proteins and carbs. I’m growing light stuff (lettuce, basil, tomatoes) and learning how to keep produce diversity aligned with a balanced diet.

These photos were taken after my motley crew of childhood and lifelong friends came through to volunteer in the field and help prep for the gorgeous dinner Chef Kimmy brought to life.

Huge mahalo to @__chuckchuck__ from @theloftstudio.hnl for capturing the moment.

Na na na na nah nah nah

@getredyfarm

If ur watching, willing, and waiting for your moment to connect, wait no mo.

Hickory Farms, Church Punch, Taco Bell, Vienna Sausages, Squeeze-Its, Pop-Tarts… 6 months of only Korean food (shout out Aunt Sookie), gas station delicacies, Sizzler, Carl’s Jr., El Torito, Old Tyme Burrito… and no Jack in the Box because that salmonella moment was loud.

That was my 90s diet. Two parents working and in school. We made it work.

I understand scarcity. I understand stretching something out of nothing.
What I don’t understand is not doing better when we know better.

I remember how it felt eating dead food.
And I know how different it feels to eat things that are actually alive.

Not here to preach (the algorithm already confused trying to decipher my riddles), just… sharing perspective.

Apologies to any of my tomatoes I may have offended.I’m still evolving.

What do you control?

With all the depression, cortisol, and stress sloshing through your body and out your pores… what do you actually have power over?

It’s not gas prices. Not oil. Not your job, your workday, or whether anyone even reads that email you rushed to send. You can’t control your partner, your kids, or even your support animal.

What you can control is what you put into your body. That’s yours. Change the conversation and change the energy. Change the stress of your situation by volunteering time to help others through tough situations.

What are you going to do with your power?

Still learning the balance between being seen and letting the work speak.

My name is Nai Vasha. It's been hard to explain myself to people who have lost their ability to dream.

I’ve never been easy to define. The personality has always been silly, wild, strange, sharp, and cool. The path was nonlinear, layered, built outside of permission. I spent my youth dodging literal and physical bullets. And yes, I’m a Black woman. Understanding me often asks one to confront their own limits, their own bias. How do you truly engage with someone whose life you’ve never taken into consideration?

I think about the first time I saw an albino peacock. Pure awe. It existed whether or not I had language for it. Whether or not I could comprehend it. I saw myself in this beautiful creature.

I chose early in life to build range. Raised by stages, sharpened by audiences, studying human behavior in real time while working every job behind and in front of the camera. The last decade plus, I’ve been consistently creating connections, systems, magazines, activations, and community opportunities to help people find their way back to themselves.

Call it resilience but I consider it inheritance.

I’m multi-hyphenated because I’ve lived. Deeply. Repeatedly. I’m not interested in being softened for comfort, especially by those who haven’t done the work of living. Sensitivity without experience is just noise.

I’m not interested in tiptoeing around people who can't even hear themselves think. The older I get the more I promise the stomp. The whole stomp. And nothing but the stomp.

If you're new here. Nice to meet you.
More information available in bio.

peace to my brother @chris_nec for being on this journey with me.

Common sense left the conversation a long time ago.

No other mammal or species chooses to eat garbage when it's time to replenish the system. We know so much about nothing while spinning in circles when it comes to our health.

Ain't nothing cute about being this ignorant.

Many thanks to everyone who’s reached out, sent donations, listened to me babble, and jumped in to see this vision through.

I’ve been in fight-or-fight mode. You’re either fighting with me or against me, but either way there’s friction. Something about a little abrasion in times this numbing feels necessary.

Since all my people are going through it, I’m using this comment section to drop a little more free IP: bring back the casserole business, just make it modern. Lord knows I love a phone call and could use every dollar to rebuild this farm—but I damn sure would’ve appreciated a warm pot pie made with local ingredients.

Maybe I’ll just add this as another bullet in my human decency course. Anyways, still taking donations, slanging merch, and I might show a pinky toe to get us back up and redy to grow.

More @getredyfarm and in my bio.

Stunt on 'em!

To help fund the rebuild, we're dropping limited edition merch.
Pre-order only.

Every purchase goes straight back to the farm — replanting, rebuilding, and getting food back to the community.

This is how we grow back.
Link in bio to pre-order.

Share, save, comment and send to a friend.
We need all the help we can get.

Tried to outrun rest. Denied myself restoration until there were no options left.

Then everything flooded.

The past two weeks unraveled every plan I had. I couldn’t imagine stepping away in the middle of that kind of devastation. But Thursday night, I chose to leave anyway. It didn't make sense but I needed to see beyond the clouds to find a way forward.

What I found at @thepalmwood was the recalibration that I needed.

Months ago @amybenson808 invited us out for a Sacred Pause weekend and I almost didn’t make it. Between Spring equinox, crop timelines and this @notionhq I use to keep myself organized, everything has order. When that rhythm broke, I had to disappear.

The forecast said rain yet delivered light. Sun peaked through in soft intervals. I had a sliver of space to breathe.

The Palmwood is energy . Every detail is intentional. Every corner holds a quiet understanding of what it means to restore the body, clear the mind, and return to something deeper than productivity.

It pulled me out of my cerebral circus and put me back into an environment where I actually thrive.

This is where you need to be.
