Kauaʻi Unscripted | Failing Forward, Fatherhood & Kaua‘i Community with Addison Bulosan

In this pilot episode of Kaua‘i Unscripted, each conversation begins with the draw of a card — moving through roots, path, truth, and impact. Allegra sits down with Addison Bulosan for a thoughtful, funny, and deeply grounded conversation about fatherhood, failure, health, community, and what Kaua‘i needs most right now. Addison shares how his two-year-old son Kilaʻa brings him peace, why “done is better than perfect” has shaped his life, and how learning the hard way led him from music into chiropractic care. The conversation also explores what makes Kaua‘i unique, from growing up after Hurricane ʻIniki to the island’s ability to rally together in times of crisis. Together, they reflect on the hard truth that “no one is going to save us” — and why that is not a message of hopelessness, but a call to take action, show up whole, and rebuild connection in real life.
