Meet Brandy
You don't have to fit into just one box.
Born and raised in Hawaiʻi, Brandy is a multi-passionate entrepreneur, content creator, wellness enthusiast, and believer that you don't have to fit into just one box.
The daughter of a Native Hawaiian mother and a Filipino father, Brandy grew up with a deep appreciation for family, culture, and community. She is married to her husband, Laurent, whose father is Japanese and whose mother is from Hawaiʻi. Together, they have spent years traveling between Hawaiʻi and Japan, building businesses, exploring new opportunities, and creating a life they love.
Over the years, Brandy has built an online community by sharing the things she's genuinely passionate about — from wellness and entrepreneurship to her mom's handmade blankets, traveling back and forth to Japan, eventually buying homes in Japan, and now helping others do the same.


About a year and a half ago, everything changed. The wellness company she had spent years building her business with unexpectedly closed its doors, forcing her to start over. Instead of trying to replace what she had lost, Brandy chose to build something even more meaningful — one business and one life centered around the things she truly loves.
That journey led her back to her creativity, her love for Japan, her family's handmade blankets, her passion for helping entrepreneurs build their businesses, and a renewed excitement for sharing wellness with her community. Today, HAWAIIBRANDY brings all of those passions together under one roof.
Whether she's helping someone improve their health, find the perfect handmade blanket, purchase a home in Japan, build a website, or simply chase a dream they've been putting off, Brandy's passion is helping people see what's possible.
Her mission
To inspire others to dream bigger, take action, and build a life they truly love.
