Who am I? What does it mean to be human? Why does the world seem so screwed up and how do we fix it?
You’re invited to join me on my quest to find answers to these and life’s other great questions. Nothing to Lose but Yourself is more than just another self-help or motivational podcast, it’s an engaging and enlightening journey into us.
In some episodes, I will invite you to eavesdrop on the insightful and often irreverent conversations that I have with thought-leaders, fellow artists, entertainers, and friends from a diverse cross section of society about current events and the power of loving and embracing one’s authentic self. In other episodes, I’ll engage in direct conversation with you and reflect on the things I’ve learned and the challenges we face. And I’ll do all of this from my unique perspective as an African American male.
Equal parts spiritual, motivational, educational, and entertaining, Nothing to Lose but Yourself invites us to re-examine long held beliefs and inspires us to discover and love our authentic selves and each other. Together we’ll unearth the power of self-love, learn to live the lives we were created to live, and, in the process, we just may change the world. We owe it to ourselves to at least try, after all life is short and you have Nothing to Lose but Yourself.

Akari has been keeping a personal journal for years that captures her thoughts and feelings about her daily life on Maui, Hawaii. The journal will be read in both Japanese and English, so if you want to improve your listening and speaking skills in either language, this podcast will provide a rich source of learning material. At the end of each episode, we will explain a couple of vocabulary words and idioms from the episode. It will be like listening to someone’s diary. Each episode is about 20 minutes long, so we hope you can listen while you do your house chores, commute to work or school, during your lunch break, etc. Visit AkariTranslations.com, and you will see both English and Japanese transcripts.
ハワイのマウイ島に暮らすあかりが、日々感じたこと、想ったことを英語と日本語でつづったものを読みあげます。英語を学ばれている方にも、日本語を学ばれている方にとっても、リスニングの力を伸ばす助けになるかと思います。誰かの日記を聞くようなものと思っていただければ、分かりやすいかなと思います。それぞれのエピソードの最後には出てきた単語や慣用語の説明もあります。どれも20分ほどのエピソードなので、家事や通勤・通学をしながら、もしくはお昼休みなどに聞いていただければと思います。AkariTranslations.comでは原文が英語と日本語の両方で読めるようになっています。

Everyone has a story. Life can be crazy, and sometimes life hands you something that you never asked for or could never see coming. In the classroom called "life," we are under the false illusion that the formula of "2+2" would always yield the "correct" answer of "4." Sometimes it works out that way, but when it doesn’t, it’s a total bummerama.
We can't make any promises, nor do we have a magic wand that we can wave over you to make it all go away, but we can promise real stories of people who are struggling too. And, because neither of us know how to tell stories without having some fun at the same time, we're going to throw in a few laughs along the way.
So, if you feel isolated, discouraged, or embarrassed by a life circumstance, or, even none at all, hang out with us and hopefully you won't feel so alone. And if you're at all curious about how vomit, a blue man, a bar of soap and the number #25 in a toilet can possibly be topics of our conversation, we welcome you into our craziness.

Peace Out,
Sarah and Courtney
