Episode Synopsis

Aloha friends - today on Heartbeat Narratives, we’re sitting cross-legged on the floor in Kaimukī, Honolulu, with the windows open and the trade winds carrying stories. Our guest, Angelina Elido, is a traveler in every sense of the word. This past year, you could find her dog sledding across icy Minnesota landscapes, building earthships in New Mexico and ideating a wellness retreat in Turkey. We talk about what it means to come home to Kalihi, Oʻahu, and how to dissolve old patterns and reframe our thoughts. By prioritizing her interests, Angelina shares how she is chasing her joy by proactively cultivating communities of connection. The conversation is about finding our own rootedness and how to follow your dreams NOW. Enjoy this larger than life interview with Angelina - the girl who is everything, everywhere, all at once. 👉 Follow Angelina’s journey on📸 Instagram: @angelinaelido🎥 YouTube: Angelina ElidoEpisode Highlights01:21 — Home in Kalihi, Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi02:37 — Minnesota to New Mexico adventuring: homesteading, acting, earthships03:53 — Building a regenerative community through earthships08:31 — “Dog sledding was epic”12:03 — Unplugging from technology, campfire connections14:31 — Travel business ventures17:03 — “Life is short” — follow your dreams20:06 — Life hacks and the power of reframing24:41 — CONNECTION is everything26:18 — Next big project: “It requires a village to make a village”29:43 — Creating a new reciprocal economic model for community32:56 — Book recommendations35:23 — Building an empathetic world, starting from withinBooks That Guided Angelina on Her JourneyBelonging: Remembering Ourselves Home — Toko-pa TurnerThe Way of Integrity: Finding the Path to Your True Self — Martha BeckWhen Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times — Pema ChödrönHow to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy — Jenny OdellThe Secret Life of Plants: A Fascinating Account of the Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Relations Between Plants and Man — Christopher Bird & Peter TompkinsPhoto Credit: Angelina Elido
