Out of the Box: A Candid Talk with Raven on Authenticity and Life in Japan

In this episode of The Transformations with Jayne Podcast, I welcome guest Raven Takahashi to discuss their life in Japan and being "neurospicy".

The conversation covers a wide range of topics, including why performance reviews are nonsensical, the impact of societal expectations and the importance of being true to yourself.

Raven shares some interesting stories about being labeled confrontational from a young age.

Raven and I also the importance of not being an 'ass'—to others or oneself. Tune in for an insightful discussion about navigating professional and personal life in Japan.
