What the F happened next? Check in with Mei Sawada

I am thrilled to welcome back the beautiful, talented, and incredible Mei Sawada for a “What the F happened next?” episode. I'm so interested to know what happened to people over the last two years, how COVID was for them, what they did and what things were on the back burner. I spoke to Lindsay in S4 Episode 2, who is Mei’s mum. She talked about the changes she's made in the yoga studio. But also we threw in a teaser for what happened next for Mei after she moved out of home. Here is your chance to find out what the F happened next to the breathtakingly accomplished and determined Mei Sawada.

If you enjoyed this episode and it inspired you in some way, we’d love to hear about it and know your biggest takeaway. Head over to Apple Podcasts to leave a review and we’d love it if you would come and say hi over on @sarahfuruyacoaching on Instagram.

In this episode you’ll hear:

  • Who this amazing woman called Mei Sawada is if you don’t already know!

  • What happened since we last spoke to Mei in S2 Episode 3 (link below)

  • Mei’s introduction to the discipline of calisthenics and the friends she made from this practice

  • Mei’s adventure into the world of professional circus performers and how she’s getting on being overseas

  • How Mei uses aerial silks performance to express herself

  • Mei’s foresight in becoming certified and having a skill outside of circus performance

  • Absolutely brilliant advice from a wise woman making her dreams happen

About Mei

May is an elite athlete. She is a circus performer and a highly skilled aerial dance performer. She started her aerial dance journey with the aerial arts dance project nine years ago. She has devoted her life to her body and to being the very best she could with the view of becoming a Cirque du Soleil style performer.

Mei left regular high school when she was 15 and continued her education at an external high school so she could dedicate herself completely to her craft. She has since devoted herself to calisthenics, learned micro blading and is currently in Las Vegas training
