Voices of ALOHA; Daughters of the King VOL. 1: A Choir of Hope

Voices of ALOHA: Daughters of the King - A Choir of Hope is a collaborative anthology of courageous, Christ-centered testimonies from women who have walked through trauma, loss, fear, and brokenness-and discovered hope, healing, and purpose on the other side.

More than a collection of stories, this book is a sacred gathering of voices. Each contributor shares her lived experience with honesty and grace, offering readers the reassurance that they are not alone and that God is present even in life's darkest chapters. These testimonies do not minimize pain, nor do they rush healing. Instead, they honor the slow, faithful work of restoration.

Anchored in the ALOHA framework-Affirmations & Actions, Leadership & Love, Overcoming Obstacles, Health & Healing, and Acute Awareness-this anthology invites readers into a gentle journey of reflection and renewal. The framework serves not as a rigid structure, but as a harmony that allows each story to sing freely while pointing toward God's redemptive power.

Curated and edited by Michelle A. G. Ebalaroza Kawano, Speaker, Author, and Creative Coach, Voices of ALOHA: Daughters of the King was born from obedience, community, and a calling to amplify voices that might otherwise remain unheard.

This anthology is for women who are searching for hope, wrestling with faith, navigating healing, or rediscovering their voice. It is also for those who desire to listen, learn, and walk alongside others with compassion.

With a commissioning invitation at its close, Voices of ALOHA extends beyond its pages-welcoming readers to recognize the power of their own stories and consider becoming part of future volumes.

This is not just a book to be read.

It is a choir to listen to-and an invitation to join in.

I am a survivor of childhood abuse, neglect, and abandonment. I have many battle scars, and I'm proud of them. It wasn't always this way.

Age 0-3 ~ Born into Chaos, Raised in Neon Smoke

1972 May 8th - a little girl was born to a journalist mother and a trailblazing rock and roll bar owner father. The happy family's union was short-lived, and they divorced before I was 3. I lived with my dad while he managed the bar. Soon I learned to serve the bar patrons by changing their ashtrays and delivering their food orders. I claimed the corner booth where I slept. This bar, called The Penthouse, was a popping place in Roppongi, "The City that Never Sleeps", in the heart of Tokyo.
