Listen "062 Unfamiliar Territory"
Episode Synopsis
Mae reflects on the subtle ways our bodies resist what we most long for—especially when it feels unfamiliar. Through a vivid dream and a childhood memory of a hotel closet in Hawaii, she explores how cultural coding, family dynamics, and emotional safety shape our capacity to receive love, space, and abundance. She shares what it looks like to gently rewire the nervous system, expand into new territory, and begin to let goodness in—not just conceptually, but somatically. Mae YoshikawaMae Yoshikawa is the creator of the Kizuki Journaling MAE Y method™, a powerful tool for self-awareness and transformation. A pioneer in wellness and personal development, Mae was the first Japanese woman authorized by the founding school of Ashtanga Yoga in India in 2006. Her work bridges Eastern and Western traditions, shaped by profound life experiences—including the loss of her mother, the sudden passing of her husband, and her ongoing journey as a mother to two sons. Mae’s upcoming books share her path of healing and becoming, and her online community, MAE Y, continues to support a growing circle of those on their path of inner growth. She has served as a global ambassador for adidas since 2015.Kizuki Journaling Website: KizukiJournaling.comPersonal Website: https://maey.live/Instagram: @maeyoshikawa
