Jayne Nakata is the host of the award-winning Transformations with Jayne Podcast and a podcast producer and manager helping more women to find their voice and launch their own podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n

And I\u2019m thrilled to feature Jayne – last but definitely not least! – in a 4-part series of interviews with inspiring women to celebrate International Women\u2019s Month, following <\/span>Catherine O\u2019Connell<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>Tia Haygood<\/b><\/a>, and <\/span>Ayako Tejima<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

I first met Jayne online and we\u2019ve met up in person several times – including to carry a <\/span>women\u2019s omikoshi <\/b>together at a festival in her current hometown of Yumoto in Iwaki Prefecture. I LOVED that red lipstick was essential for this!!!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Episode 125 of The Sasuga! Podcast, Jayne shared these eight insights and more to help you discover the power of being kind to yourself first:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Take care of yourself first, and you\u2019ll start to see new possibilities for yourself (fact: this is because your brain comes out of \u201csurvival mode\u201d where you can only focus on what\u2019s right in front of you – as you relax, you gain a broader perspective)<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. You can\u2019t do anything straight out of the gate \u2013 whether it\u2019s podcasting, speaking, or parenting \u2013 it all takes learning and #imperfectaction<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Learn and practice – how to speak clearly, listen, and then help others<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Keep to your own lane and look around for inspiration, not comparison<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. It\u2019s normal to want to go \u201cscreaming back into your comfort zone\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Work on becoming more radiant in any way you can #redlipstick<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. Don’t believe that nobody will want to listen to what you have to say. Others will love you even when you\u2019re not perfect – just share you<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Have a morning routine for your selfcare, then deal with family – husbands can cook their own breakfast! \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
