One word: Open-mind

A bit about myself...

Hi. I'm Yoko. I've been best known as a YouTuber since 2006.

Just so you get the idea...

I had been a normal Internet nerd/geek who was a depressed metalhead that dreamed of one day becoming a musician.
Back then, I hated my roots and therefore, even though people always admired me for my efforts, fortunes and talent, my life was pretty miserable.

It's only in 2012 fall that I started to have interests in politics, where I met my husband. Gradually, I began re-collecting and re-installing my Japanese self, and in around 2017 fall, I had spiritual awakening. I got married with my husband the following year.
As for my political journey, please check out this English interview by Japan Forward: "Not-So-Random Yoko Mada: An Interview with the YouTube Sensation"

Now, I dedicate my life to the world as the wife of my husband, political advocator and a light worker. I'm fascinated by all kinds/forms of wisdom, beauty, and self-love.
I thank every day for our ancestors and Kami-gami that co-create this world with us. They're also looking over us and protecting us. This is how the invisible world and this world are reflecting each other, and this is the reason why we exist.

My one word is open-mind. The only attitude you need to learn from each other and respect one another.

But hey, I'm still a weirdo that's a goofy dork 8D
