At an age when youngsters can’t look beyond their next adventure, young Edi Matsumoto travelled from her native Japan to volunteer at the Mother Theresa’s Home for Dying Destitute in Kolkata, India. Still in her 20’s, she decided that she wanted to work in health care and moved to the U.S. to become a nurse practitioner/ health and wellness coach. 

After 30 years of working in clinics and hospitals across the United States, Edi retired from her hospital to start a new creative life in art as well as coaching. she shared,

 “I started as a health coach in my hospital. After taking a spiritual course in 2015, I became one of its facilitators. At about the same time, I went back to school to study art and earned a Master’s degree in Visual Art. Finding that many fellow healthcare professionals were burned out and stressed, I explored various ways to reduce stress and maximize mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. I launched a coaching business to help burned-out professionals reevaluate their lives and shift their paradigm toward a more fulfilled life and career. I often used art to help people get unstuck and express themselves.”

Edi’s maternal great-grandfather was a traditional Japanese artist who painted birds, flowers and snow-capped mountains using an ink brush technique. Thus her interest in art was cultivated at a young age, something that reaped rewards in adult life. “While I worked for hospitals and clinics, I often felt that I was in a rat race. I worked hard and was productive. As a result, I could retire and devote my time to my art and coaching business,” she adds.

Edi Matsumotois the creator of the Satori Method based on 30 years of healthcare, coaching and spiritual experience. Satori is a word for awakening or enlightenment in Japanese. Unlike the traditional spiritual methods in which one devotes decades to one discipline, she combines positive psychology, meditation, the law of attraction, theory, practicum, and modern technology, all in one program, to meet individual needs.

In addition to art and coaching, Edi also launched a third business recently – empowering wearable art. Speaking about her endeavors, she told us, “I enjoy working with spiritual and artistic people who want to improve their professional and personal lives. I use positive psychology, meditation, breathing, art, and other modalities to support them. My paintings and wearable art are created with empowerment in mind by using symbols, representation, and healing colors. I don’t fit in one category because I love doing all of these and this is who I am.”

Edi is especially passionate about supporting women to find the freedom to express and pursue their dreams. “I want to share what I have learned from my mentors (from my third-grade teacher, local business coaches, and Tony Robbins to Mother Teresa) – each of us can learn to shift our mindset to be the best version of ourselves and create the best life possible. I want to pass on the wisdom I have acquired in a fun and beautiful way by using my coaching and art skills. I want to continue offering empowering art, wearable art, group and private coaching tools. To know more about Edi, check www.passionvista.com or to nominate email, [email protected]
