Mai Nguyen is a creative entrepreneur, lifestyle influencer, and the voice behind Little Mai Sunshine, a lifestyle brand and sophisticated personal publication striving to openly share intimate conversations in various aspects of everyone's lives—wholesome living, mental health, personal style diary, travel, and simply everyday life—in an effort to help us all achieve a deeper connection with our realities and build healthier communities.
In today’s new episode, Mai shares her version of her story - in the form of a poem, “These Stars Are My Words.” She always believed that her mind was her enemy, a clutter mess of her triggers, anxiety and fear. She was always questioning herself, and it was an every day battle with the negative voices in her mind. She speaks so beautifully on nourishing our thoughts with love and positivity, and cultivating a powerful connection and presence with our thoughts and our minds. As Mai shares, we can find peace in our madness, and hope in our universe.

Mayuko Okai is an Intuitive Eating coach with over ten years of experience as a Registered Dietitian. In her past life, she was a clinical dietitian, seeing over a dozen patients a day in the hospital.
Growing up, Mayuko always sensed that her purpose was to help others find good health and happiness. Hearing about people becoming terminally ill, she felt a calling to help prevent such tragic stories. In 2009 she started her career as a Clinical Dietitian at one of the largest public hospitals in the country. But Mayuko hopes quickly crumbled as she spent her days reciting nutrition spiels to patients at their bedside. Her role didn't feel valuable or reflective of my calling.

Victoria Albina is a Certified Life Coach and Certified Breathwork Meditation Facilitator with a passion for helping women with their most important relationship: the one with themselves. She’s also a nurse practitioner and functional medicine expert with a Master’s degree in Public Health as well as a certified breathwork facilitator, an herbalist, a life coach, and the host of the Feminist Wellness podcast.
Victoria shares her journey coming to this work after a lifetime of being sick, and her realization that her mindset, thoughts, and sense of self were all at the core of her health issues. After a lifetime of co-dependent and perfectionist thinking, she decided it was time to make a change. Keeping others happy with her, and approving of her, was more important than her joy. She kept coming up short, because she wasn’t in alignment with her own authentic self. She was living for other people, and it showed in her physical and mental health. It wasn’t until she learned to listen deeply to her body, to feel her feelings, which she had been expertly avoiding for decades, how to understand and give love to her nervous system responses, and that her thoughts create her feelings, that everything began to shift.
To learn more about Victoria, her free meditations, and her work visit her website https://victoriaalbina.com and on Instagram @victoriaalbinawellness and on Facebook @VictoriaAlbinaWellness
