<p>In this episode, Mae reflects on her spiritual development through the metaphor of the spiral, exploring the quiet shift from mental mapping to simply being—letting go of the personality’s need to plan or perform. A journal entry from two years ago reveals she’s been here before, contemplating surrender. But this time, it’s different. The episode gently invites listeners to recognize their own patterns not as stuckness, but as a sacred rising into a new level of awareness.</p><p></p><p><strong>Mae Yoshikawa</strong></p><p>Mae is an author, yoga & meditation practitioner, teacher, and mother.

<p>Mae reflects on a lifelong narrative she’s carried about her parents’ divorce—and the realization that the deepest wound wasn’t the event itself, but the unintended self-blame that followed. Through this powerful kizuki, she explores the difference between pain… and the pain we cause ourselves in reaction to pain. A gentle but profound invitation to release what no longer needs to be carried.</p><p></p><p><strong>Mae Yoshikawa</strong></p><p>Mae is an author, yoga & meditation practitioner, teacher, and mother.

<p>In this quietly powerful episode, Mae shares a raw, present-moment realization: that surrender isn’t one grand moment, but a hundred tiny ones. She speaks tenderly about what it means to soften, to be shaped, and to keep walking—through storm, grace, and even breaking apart. A deep, human reminder that we’re never alone in the unraveling.</p><p></p><p><strong>Mae Yoshikawa</strong></p><p>Mae is an author, yoga & meditation practitioner, teacher, and mother.
