Title: My Journey with Cancer and the Birth of the Mana Ribbon

My name is Brianne Kealoha, and I am the founder of Mana Wahine Designs LLC, a Hawaiian-inspired custom apparel brand. In early 2024, I was diagnosed with a rare form of breast cancer. As I began my fight on July 2nd 2025 against this disease, I drew strength from my Hawaiian heritage and the concept of "Mana" – the spiritual energy and life force that flows through all things.

Inspired by my journey and the desire to create a symbol of hope, resilience, and cultural pride, I designed the Mana Ribbon – a unique pink ribbon entwined with beautiful Hawaiian elements. The Mana Ribbon represents the unity, strength, and support that we can find within our cultural roots as we face life's most difficult challenges.

Through my own cancer battle, I've discovered the importance of sharing our stories, raising awareness, and building a supportive community. By sharing my journey with you, I hope to inspire and empower others who are facing similar struggles. Together, we can fight cancer and celebrate our resilience through the Mana Ribbon.

As I continue my treatment and recovery, I am committed to keeping my business alive and thriving. Mana Wahine Designs LLC is not only my passion but also an essential source of support for me and my family during this time.

Join me on my journey to spread hope, raise awareness, and empower cancer warriors worldwide through the Mana Ribbon. By donating to my GoFundMe or  purchasing our custom Mana designs, sharing my story or your own stories of resilience, you are helping me keep my business alive while supporting others who are battling cancer.

In the spirit of aloha and Mana, let's stand together and show the world that no matter the obstacles we face, our roots run deep, and our spirit remains unbreakable.

With love and Aloha
