In this issue of Taking on Tomorrow, our focus is on working towards good health and well-being. 

Omidyar Fellow Lia Hunt reflects on a recent experience in the Wai‘anae forest of Palehua, where she and other Fellows reconnected with the self, the present, and the ‘āina. Fellow Landon Opunui encourages us to extend our “healthspan,” a proactive approach that underscores the quality of life—not just the quantity of years. Fellows Sondra Leiggi Brandon and Stephany Vaioleti share how The Queen’s Health Systems is expanding mental and physical health care services to underserved communities, including rural areas and our youth. 

We also spotlight Fellow Nicole Velasco and her journey making the connections between health, leadership, community, and family. Fellow Yunji de Nies shares reflections as she and her cohort reach the midpoint of their curriculum.
