ZESDA Stand UP LIVE #11

On November 20, 2025, the non-profit organization ZESDA, led by Chairman Daisuke Sakuraba, will host the event titled "ZESDA Stand UP LIVE #11". This engaging session will feature Hanako Seto, founder of Rin Hana School, who will share her inspiring journey through the theme "Embracing Life's Catwalk Against All Odds: A Parallel Career Strategy Overcoming Illness and Walking in New York Collections."

About the Live Event

We are truly grateful for your interest in the theme of "parallel careers.” Following a stable career path in urban banking and the aviation industry, I faced a challenging illness at a pivotal point in my career. However, this adversity instilled in me a strong belief that I could live without giving up on what I truly wanted to do.

Currently, I am balancing two careers: working at a smart agency and leading Rin Hana School, which focuses on enhancing both inner and outer beauty. This embodies the essence of a "parallel career," as I strive to achieve personal fulfillment in conjunction with my professional endeavors.

Moreover, my unwavering commitment recently culminated in an incredible experience at the New York Fashion Week runway this past February. Living beautifully and shining brightly is not solely about external glamor; it is also about having the inner strength to believe in oneself and never give up, even in difficult circumstances.

In this lecture, I will share how I converted my "never-give-up" mindset into a powerful business strategy, alongside specific techniques to maximize career potential while refining one's inner and outer self.

“If it’s what you truly want, you can surely achieve it.”

Come and gather enlightening tips to make your life’s runway the most radiant space possible. I am looking forward to meeting all of you!
