In this episode we are joined by Rieko Uesaki. Rieko has leveraged her superpower of empathy into building 2 complementary businesses. She the founder of both ISSHONI, a partner to eCommerce merchants from various businesses on how to succeed in Japan and Mindox, where in her role as the resident therapist and life coach, she provides a safe space and the clarity required for her clients to heal from their past experiences and design a life that works for them. Being part of the team that launched Shopify in Japan in 2017 and having worked side by side local merchants, Reiko generously shares her insights on what it takes to launch a successful e-commerce strategy in Japan as well as future trends we can expect over the next 18 - 24 months. We then dive into, how empathy is not an isolated gift we apply to our customers but rather, empathy when first applied to ourselves, in our own lives, is the foundation necessary to create and contribute to our businesses and to the wider community.
Also, I've included some of free resources from Reiko in the show notes. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did and don’t forget to share your feedback with me on your favorite social platform.
