118 Uncomfortable as Hell

from KIZUKI the Podcast

Mae explores the surprising discomfort that can arise when lifelong identities begin to dissolve. Through reflections on old roles, pathless woods, and the freedom of not needing a new job description, she invites listeners to consider that perhaps what’s disappearing isn’t who they are—but who they believed they had to be. Mae Yoshikawa Mae Yoshikawa is the creator of the Kizuki Journaling™, 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.com Personal Website: https://maey.live/ Instagram: ⁠@maeyoshikawa
