065 Letting Joy In Without Earning It

from KIZUKI the Podcast

Mae reflects on a profound moment that uncovered an old survival pattern: the belief that joy must be earned. Speaking directly to the part of us that doesn’t know how to rest, she shares a personal realization—and a collective truth—that we are allowed to receive joy simply because we are. Mae Yoshikawa Mae 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.
