Transformations with Jayne episodes

  • What beautiful things are you going to speak into existence?
    Solo episode this week and I'm talking about how one of my gurus Jim Fortin reminds me:
    "We speak our lives into existence".
    We know that the words we use with ourselves and others is important but we often also forget this! 
    This week I'd love you to challenge yourself to notice what kinds of words you are using and what you are "speaking into existence".
    The Transformations with Jayne Mastermind is opening this month (February 2020) and will close to new members on the 23rd of February. To register for a 1-1 call with me to see if you would be a good fit, make sure you head to: https://www.jaynenakata.com/mastermind  to read all about the mastermind.
    I have more wonderful guests coming up in the next few weeks so I hope you will listen and share the podcast with your friends and family!

  • Interview with Jodi Harris

    This week I'm interviewing Jodi Harris from World Tree Coaching!

    Jodi Harris was born in the United States, but from a very early age was fascinated by the idea of living in other countries. Since her first study abroad experience in 1997, she has lived in Spain, Japan (twice), Northern Ireland, the Dominican Republic, Madagascar and now Belgium.

    What it's like to live in Madagascar

She has a BA in Spanish and a BA in English both with a focus on secondary education. In 2003, she shifted her career from education to pursue a Masters Degree in Social Work with a focus on Clinical Social Work and Peace and Conflict Studies.

  • Welcome to 2020!

    Hello!! First episode of the new year today!

    Today I'm talking about some of the things that have helped me decide what I'm going to focus my energy on in 2020.

    Grab a piece of paper and as you listen jot down the things that pop into your head:

    What did you love about 2019?

    What are you going to do more of in 2020?

    I've been experimenting with how things will go now that I'm in Sweden. I've decided that I will definitely be continuing with the things that have brought me so much joy. 

    1) My Women in Japan Mastermind (we might need a new name...ha ha!)

    2) Live events 

    3) Podcasting! 


    Things I'm going to work on more this year. 

    Just the one thing. 

    Fitness and health. Listen to the episode to hear more about the #sasukeonnachallenge ! 

    What did you love in 2019 that you are going to do more of in 2020?

  • Are you looking forward to or dreading the end of the year?
    Hello again from Sweden! 
    We've heading into our third week in Sweden and starting to hit our stride a bit with things! This is the last episode for 2019! I'll be back after the winter holidays with more interviews for you! 
    In this episode I talk about:
    - Rookie mistakes of living in a Nordic country
    - Dreading or looking forward to Christmas and New Year?
    - Creating new traditions and giving up outdated ones
    I'd love to hear what you are giving up doing at this time of year! It's easy to add something new but harder to give up what no longer works for us. 
    Have a wonderful winter holiday and look out for the first episode in January!

  • 5 things I've learned hosting live events

    This week I'm taking some time to discuss the learning I've had from creating live events for women here in Fukushima Prefecture. 

    I talk about:

    The dissonance between what you think you want and what you and the world actually needs

    My top five tips for creating and leading live events

    Feedback from my most recent event


    I hope that this episode will inspire you to go out and create something, no matter the size because it's so needed. 

    Start somewhere, anywhere is fine! It doesn't have to be and it won't be perfect the first time around. That's ok because you are already ahead of 90% of the other events that are still just ideas in someone's head. 

    Stay tuned for more updates as we hit the move to Sweden!

  • Interview with Amanda O'Brien of Jima Designs

    This week I'm talking to Amanda O'Brien,  Designer at Jima Designs and 24 year resident of Osaka. 

    Amanda believes that there are no coincidences in life and that everything will turn out OK in the end. Mostly, her story is a result of living this philosophy wholeheartedly. She studied Industrial Design in Australia and on a whim in her final weeks of study she jumped on a plane and arrived in Tokyo. It was the waning years of the bubble era. She looks back now and wonders how in hell she found an apartment and a job the very next day, even though the only Japanese she knew was “konnichiwa” and “arigatou”. It was tough living in Tokyo though, and she left within two years vowing to not return. After leaving Japan, she returned again to Australia and worked as a kitchen designer. It wasn’t too long however, before she packed up and headed to live in London. It was on her first day here, passing through the train station, that she met Yoshiko the woman who introduced her to her husband. After two years together in London they travelled extensively and then finally returned to Osaka. They have three teenagers. This is her 24th year here. The longest place she has ever lived.

    We talk about:

    How Amanda came to be in Japan - it's a doozie!

    How she started an architectural firm in Japan with her husband

    Funny stories about name mix ups

    Using an architect vs a house building company

    A transformation that Amanda had gone through

    Being introverted and playing the extrovert
