I didn’t know what a powerhouse of nutrition lūʻau is until I met and we started to collaborate on postpartum foods that regenerate women’s health and ʻāina at the same time.

And then I found myself anemic during my second pregnancy and the lessons about Lūʻau and nutrition during pregnancy became real.

Join us the weekend after Lā Kūʻokoʻa for a free workshop on lūʻau including a tasting of dishes from Hawaiʻi, the Philippines and Guåhan that feature taro leaves + a giveaway of cooked lūʻau from 💚

Hi 👋 I’m Kelsey the founder of Motherwit and these are my babies. Reintroducing myself since our IG has gone by the wayside and needs some new energy (that I hope is coming soon).

My grownup job is Co-CEO of but my inner child wanted to pretend to be a kitchen witch and start a cultural postpartum soup company and and I let her. (Who else is permissive re-parenting their inner child?)

I want to reclaim all our women’s ancestral knowledge, feed the highest quality locally sourced soups to all the tired new moms, and feel like a woman who lives and belongs on healthy thriving ʻāina. It’s a work in progress.

Buy our frozen jook and tinolang manok on and check out our digital cookbooks made with and limited other frozen postpartum soups on our website. Currently and are keeping us afloat.

Who would come to a community cooking day and make chicken soup with us?
