– An Interview with Aya Jean
What can you learn from a Japanese woman who ran one of Japan’s premium model agencies for nearly two decades, was a model for four decades, and now works closely with global changemakers to help them craft their unique style and have a bigger impact in the world?
Well, you can learn how to look fabulous for a start!
But more than that, you can learn how even those who we see as beautiful, savvy, and successful have faced frustration, doubts, and adversity to reach where they are today.
In Episode 54 of the Sasuga! Podcast, I interview Aya Jean, who took me on an eye-opening and fun style journey in 2019.
You’ll hear
- How Aya went from being frustrated with a long to-do list to being happy with a few small achievements
- How it took Aya many years to build up the confidence to go into Yoshinoya on her own – and how you can build confidence faster
- How challenging it was to be a CEO in Japan as a female model in her 20s – and how easily you can start your own business now
