||  Dance ..... My way of expressing what I can't say.  ||

This week on the #readswithrosapodcast I sit down for a talanoa with Shilohm Filipi, a creative and owner of the small business Teines Creations. She shares stories about her love for dancing, the inspirational movement that is Ura Tabu Pacific Dance, and how from a very young age she dared to dream that one day she would be able to compete in a Miss Sāmoa pageant. This dream came to fruition in July this year when she was crowned Miss Sāmoa New Zealand, and then she had the opportunity to travel back to our homeland to represent our Sāmoan communities in Aotearoa at the Miss Sāmoa pageant.  

Tune in as Shilohm share's her journey as a tama’ita’i Sāmoa and reflects on the people who have paved the way and helped to foster in her a love, appreciation and respect for our culture and values.
