Throughout his career, Scott Nishimoto has served as an advocate for equity and peace-building in Honolulu. He shares an array of stories about how his parents, partner and children have influenced his perception of aloha and valuing every person's experience when it comes to embracing the human condition. In his early days as a nonprofit executive, he met Pono Shim and that initial encounter led to years of friendship and growing to understand the power of storytelling. This podcast title, "Part of this World," is inspired by a movie song (you may know it!) that Pono shared with Scott. Enjoy Scott's powerful and humorous narrative. Mahalo!
