131 The Suicide Widow
from KIZUKI the Podcast
In one of the darkest periods after losing her husband, Mae went searching online for other widows—and encountered a woman whose loss forced her to look beyond the walls of her own pain. Reading directly from her memoir manuscript, she revisits an uncomfortable truth about comparison: sometimes witnessing the depths of what another person has survived can become a reason to keep going. 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.
