Many of us lose our true selves in our day to day, in taking care of those around us. We lose touch with who we truly are. Who we are meant to be. We get so busy that we forget we are our own protector - our own "Kahu" - that there is divinity within us.
It took me a long time to remember this - three children, two bouts of cancer, a move across the world, going back to the work force, and one puppy, to find myself again, find my Kahu. Now I finally feel like I am home. Safe and sound and at peace. Don't get me wrong, I am still juggling - the work, the puppy, the family but I am doing it with awareness, giving myself time and space.
Nothing has changed, and yet everything has changed.
I can help you do the same. Be the powerful, beautiful, peaceful Kahu that you are, for yourself, and all the beings that you encounter in all directions of your life.
Your wonderful magical beautiful life.
You are feeling out of place after a big or a small change in your life. You feel unworthy and lost. I've been there! I felt that way when I moved back to Japan from the US when I was 15 and again when I moved to the Netherlands as a new mom. I felt that way when I took on a new job and lived in Hong Kong. I felt that way when I got married ! Changes are good but it can be a struggle because you think you don't understand the culture, or the language. Yet you are desperate to make it work because you think it's the best option for everyone in your family - everyone except for you. You're miserable but you tell yourself to toughen up and make sure everybody else is happy. You don't want to be the complainer so you try making friends, take on new hobbies to embrace the new life but you still feel like you are dying a little bit everyday. You are blaming yourself, or your partner, or your children, or your work, or the universe! for putting you in this position. Amidst the inner chaos, you have a career to build and wonderful children to raise -in an environment where you are not in your full power. It's overwhelming. You feel like you lost in the game of life. The charisma and confidence you had back at home isn't coming out because you feel so vulnerable and worthless. If that's you, we should talk.
Hi I’m Yukiko. I'm Japanese but I see myself as someone who belongs to nowhere but to myself. I've moved to a foreign country both as a child, and as an adult. I moved to New York when I was 7 , then back to Tokyo when I was 15 and I now live in Holland. I have always worked in the financial industry, and have worked in 4 different countries, two of which I didn't speak the language. Moving countries got more challenging as I got older and I became an expert at adapting to the environment – at the expense of myself. I always felt the need to please to fit in, “just enough.” I would reveal “just enough” of me so I would be accepted. Then in 2021 I got cancer. I kicked and screamed and blamed my life in Holland for "getting me sick. "I even found a job in Tokyo with the intention of leaving my kids and husband to go back home, convinced that that was the answer to my happiness. But after a lot of inner work thru reading and Coaching, I realized that family prevailed and that I could be happy regardless of where I resided. It's all in the MINDSET. I was able to confirm that I had had a mindset shift when I got my second bout of cancer later the same year. This time, I swam through the treatment. I faced it with much more grace, gratitude and peace.
I'm raising three wonderful kids with my wonderful husband. I'm so proud of myself when my daughter tells me that she thinks I'm the most positive person among the 5 of us. I know I'm now happier and more open because that's who I DECIDED to be. I decided to acknowledge myself and to check in with myself everyday, sometimes multiple times a day. and make sure I am doing onlly things that light me up. Oh and I LOVE Zumba. And I LOVE Astrology. I love them so much that I got certified. We can dance, we can read your astrologial blueprint of your life in our sessions if you want.
