‘A Trip Into The Beautiful Mind of Hanalei Swan – Author, Speaker, Fashion Designer’
It’s with pleasure, I would like to introduce my daughter, Hanalei Swan as we take a trip into her beautiful mind. She is not only my daughter, but she’s also a very successful fashion designer and artist. She’s an author and speaker, and a very special human being on this earth. It was so inspiring to have her on The Rhonda Swan Show. #TheRhondaSwanShow #TRSS #podcast #rhondaswanshow #podcast #business #hanalei Host: Rhonda Swan: @rhondaswan Executive Producer: Neleke McDermott @nelekejean Booking Producer: James Clark @clark_public_relations Filmmaker: Denis Gapone @dgapone Hair: Fikri Halim @fikrihalim Guest: Hanalei Swan @hanaleiswan

Most kids are asked, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” But I wasn’t asked that, I was asked, “what do you want to be now?” This question changed my perspective on what I could do at such a young age, and instead of thinking I had to wait to become a fashion designer until i was 20 or 30, I decided to do it now and started designing at the age of 7 years old.

Most kids are asked, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” But I wasn’t asked that, I was asked, “what do you want to be now?” This question changed my perspective on what I could do at such a young age, and instead of thinking I had to wait to become a fashion designer until i was 20 or 30, I decided to do it now and started designing at the age of 7 years old. (I’m currently 12). I was one year old when I started traveling. I left the USA to travel abroad with my parents. They wanted me to learn from real life, not from a text book. In that time we have visited and lived in 6 continents and over 36+ countries. Most people think I have grown up different than other kids my age but I think it’s pretty normal. I’ve attended schools in countries like Brazil, Panama, Peru, Mexico, and Indonesia. I’ve had the opportunity to see some incredible places and meet amazing people.
