Let’s say Aloha to our next guest Xeana Kamalani - aka, Kama! Kama is a model, actress, Philanthropist, founder of Kama Training, and is the first pro league pitcher in softball that’s from Hawaii. And being only 25 years old, she has accomplished so much.
Today we cover,
· What growing up in Hawaii is really like and how her hometown, Makaha, would be best described as the ghetto.
· The hardest part growing up poor.
· How her parents really pushed her to venture outside of Makaha and pursue her studies and softball.
· Getting full scholarships to Fresno State then UC Berkely to be able to play softball.
· The decision to continue with softball and what it means to her to be the first ever pro softball player from Hawaii.
· The biggest frustrations of being a female pro athlete.
· Almost losing her mom to a stroke and realizing the army she had supporting her.
· Not letting other’s opinions affect her.
· What Kama Training is.
I am amazed by Kama and how well she has her head on her shoulders. She is an inspiration and I can’t wait to see where else life will take her.
