Do any of these sound like you?
- I always put work and other people first—I rarely take time for myself
いつも仕事や誰かのために頑張っていて、自分のことは後回し - I have so many things to do that it’s easy to forget what’s really important
やるべき事が多すぎて、大事なことを見落としてしまう - I’m nervous giving presentations and hesitate to speak up in meetings (especially in my non-native language)
どんな言語でも、プレゼンやミーティングで発言することに緊張してしまう - No matter how hard I work, I never get everything done
どんなに頑張って働いても、全てをやり切る事ができない
You’re not alone.
These are common struggles for women in business here in Japan.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
With some fresh perspectives, a few practical skills, and a bit of practice and encouragement, you can start to make a big difference for yourself.
One easy, time-efficient (and fun) way to do that is with the 4-part Women’s Success Mini Training (recordings available until May 11).
新しい視点と実践的なスキル、そして少しの練習と励ましがあれば、自分自身に大きな変化をもたらし始めることができます。

Hello! I'm Helen Iwata
Women’s Success, Leadership, and Communication Coach
Originally from the UK, I’ve lived and worked in Japan for over 30 years.
During my 10 years with McKinsey, I simultaneously managed 3 departments and became one of the few certified trainers in Asia, coaching high-achieving consultants and clients in leadership and communication. I loved that work because I LOVED to see the change in people 💕
After leaving the corporate world in 2013 and establishing my own business the next day, I became passionate about helping women in Japan succeed professionally—without sacrificing their personal lives.
This came from my own insecurities and painful experiences of burnout.
And I realized it wasn’t just me. I’d seen so many other high-performing women telling themselves they weren’t good enough and pushing themselves to exhaustion.
It’s natural to want to do excellent work and keep everyone happy, right? But it’s mottainai (a waste) if it comes at the cost of your health and happiness.
Through years of experience, research, trial, and error, I discovered a different and better way—one that integrates practical professional skills with physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. I call it “Less Effort, More Impact.” And I’d love more women to know how they can start to put this into practice too for more success and less stress.
