MAI SERENITY SPACE TEAM COACH, Professional Organizer
FOUNDER OF MAI SERENITY SPACE AND COACH MAI
My name is MAI. I was born in Japan, where organization and tidiness is embedded in my education and culture.
When I went to school, organization was a key skill I worked on and perfected.
At home, my mom was a big collector.
Even though the house was filled with objects, I realized that as long as my room was clean and organized, I was happy. My room was where I found serenity and peace.
After finishing University, I traveled, lived in other countries lived with strangers from all over the world and observed their life style habits. I began to help my roommates understand that tidiness was not only important for your mindset, but also for your health.
I started teaching people the Japanese lifestyle of living in tiny spaces with a good organization system.
Soon after returning to Japan, my organizational services and teaching was recommended to many foreigners and I became the " go-to girl " for foreigners in Japan .
I moved to Los Angeles in 1999 to study Child Development and in my spare time, I taught people how to discipline their children. Because of the positive impact that I made on their children, I became very popular amongst nannies and babysitters in various families of all socioeconomic classes.
I was successful in my work environment, however I was struggling with my personal life in my marriage and with step children. I felt like I had a dual personality, I was smiling outside, but I was suffering inside and was unsure what to do with my life. I was depending on psychics almost daily because I could not make any decisions. I was lost.
I was blaming my husband and his children for the misery in my life. My house was always tidy because I was the one doing everything. However my vibration inside the house was miserable, and I was always angry and screaming and yelling. I hated myself and I didn't know what to do.
My step daughter's sudden death throwing our family into a tailspin. My two other step children started having drug and mental issues. My husband nearly died from the stress. We were barely surviving, and I didn't know what to do. I escaped and left but always came back . My body started deteriorating little by little and I was growing angrier by the day..
No matter what I did to try to heal myself, I was unsuccessful.
Until I decided to change and take charge of myself.
.
It was a bumpy road but I didn't give up. I started accepting and loving myself just the way I was. That was a beginning of my true organizing journey. My shift made a huge impact on the environment. Either people stay or leave. I learned how to listen to my true voice who I truly am and I found myself. Authentic MAI.
Now my husband and I are together over 23 years and have been happily married for almost 10 of those years.
I want to teach everyone to find a way to be truly happy with themselves from within. My Intention is to help and support you in surrounding yourself only happy the stuff that makes you feel good and happy. Also to surround yourself with a healthy happy and harmonious environment.
My passion is to help you together we will create your own inner and outer
" Serenity Space " .
SERENITY LIFE COACH CYNDI
My name is Cyndi Sorrell and I am a Certified Life Coach.
As young as 6th grade, I had developed a passion for human behavior and had planned to major in Psychology. As life often works, I ended up taking a different route and I now thrilled to be back on course with coaching. I became a Certified Life Coach from Jay Shetty Coaching School in June of 2024.
I have already been a coaching for many years assisting friends and co-workers and quite often complete strangers facing life challenges without knowing there was a name for this!
Because of my own childhood trauma and life experiences that have dealt with narcissism, rejection, divorce, loss, single parenting and surviving cancer, I have a deep understanding of the need to be heard, seen and not judged. I have become a natural at creating those safe spaces for others.
As a coach, I am listening to what is being said and left unsaid and examining the gaps between where you are and where you want to be. As your Coach we will be working together to learn how to connect fragments of your life that may feel unrelated, and weave them together to gain new perspectives on identity and problem solving. Together, we use those fragments to build a bridge and develop new approaches to overcoming daily life challenges.
My desire to help create internal harmony also extends to creating interior harmony at home. I have always had a passion for décor, design, and art and recognize that an organized, beautiful and balanced living space optimizes mental clarity and functioning.
I am passionate about helping people create homes that feel authentic and that we feel genuinely energized, happy, and at our best. I believe that creating a joyful home is essential. As a previous small business owner focused on home décor and fragrance, I will be working with Mai on offering budget friendly staging to compliment the work of decluttering and organization. Your home should be your place of peace that welcomes back again and again. Together with Mai, we will work to create holistic and sustainable approaches to care for your home and your spirit.
Outside of professional endeavors, you will find me practicing Capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian martial art I have embraced since 2017. To deepen my understanding Capoeira. I spent the month of January, 2024 in Brazil immersing myself in the rich cultural heritage of the discipline.
I am also the mother of four remarkable adults, all living in the Los Angeles area.
