UNCUT Hawaii
As filmmakers with decades of combined experience, we’ve interviewed hundreds of people from various walks of life with some of the most inspiring, life-changing, fascinating stories. But, like any filmmaker knows - what actually makes it into the final film is just the tip of the iceberg. Due to run time or brand restrictions, most of the interview gets left on the cutting room floor. From Hawai'i's top leaders to creators, entrepreneurs to change-makers, we’re on a hunt to share their inspiring and thought-provoking stories, UNCUT and in their own words.

Episode 82: Kali'a Wasson on Authenticity and Body Positivity at Hawaii Swim Show
Kaliʻa Wasson is a Native Hawaiian designer, dancer and co-founder of Hawaii Swim Show. Originally from Hilo, she danced professionally before starting her swimwear line "Leimakani Swimwear", an all-inclusive brand rooted in Hawaiian culture. She was featured in Sports Illustrated Swim and became the first Native Hawaiian designer invited to Miami Swim Week. That bucket-list experience inspired her to start Hawaii Swim Show and this week kicks off its 3rd year and first time on O'ahu. In this episode we talk about her humble beginnings as the oldest of 7 girls, her journey of self-discovery and the best part of Hawaii Swim Show.
