HOME Planet Consulting

HOME Planet Consulting Consulting: Small Business, Non-Profits, Professional Coaching Your HOME PLANET resides internally. It is your core. As such, I act as your Emissary.

The HOME PLANET concept is one that reflects and honors your purest essence, the most authentic you. Our goal is to help you re-establish the vital connection with the journey to find your own individual HOMEPLANET. With borrowings from Social Psychology, Anthropology, Creative Management, and Chan Buddhism, HOME PLANET employs STORY TELLING (Narrative) and Personal Metaphor as tools to help you i

n your quest to identify and explore personal depths, feelings of personal worth and self esteem, avenues to more effective life path management, and more satisfying personal decision making. HOME PLANET uses a proprietary model for capturing and converting implicit (tacit) knowledge. Once captured, this knowledge can be codified, shared, and built upon. By employing Story Telling and Personal Metaphor, a foundation is established for the next steps. These include identifying and analyzing fundamental symbolic structures, which leads to a more profound understanding of the purposes and philosophies which govern day-to-day operations for both individuals (in life) and groups (organizations, teams, etc). Becoming familiar with what lies below the surface is essential for effective and strategic integration of the lessons found there. As mentioned, both individuals and groups can benefit from “re-tooling” in this way toward greater awareness and effectiveness in the following areas:

Career Management
Entrepreneurial Endeavors
Goal Setting
Job Search
Managing Life Change
Performance
Relationships

So, today I am feeling the effects of my first aerial yoga class (taken yesterday). OMG! I can feel every muscle in my body. I feel so alive. During the class it is imperative to "let go." Fear grabbed me - fear of being upside down, of falling out of the silk, getting so wrapped up you can't get out, and fear of not keeping up with the others. It was an absolute joy to rediscover how this type of physical activity did not only help awaken my body, but it also reawakened my soul. To participate fully, you gotta get upside down; I had to get wrapped up in it; I had to trust that it would hold me (and it did!); and release the fear that was holding my body and mind hostage since losing my Mom and Husband just a few months ago. What a gift! Thank you, Universe, Mother Earth, Gaia, Buddha!

Tonight, my brother, Matt, and I had a glorious bonfire on our beach. May out it all together. He did all the prep. It filled the black night and also let us see the beautiful start sky above. You can see the lights on the shore to the right. So contemplative. Thank you, Matt Scott. The fire was perfect on a perfect night.

The love, support, and care of family members during this very difficult time in my life. This evening, family brought me beautiful blooming flowers in a 'Tree of Life" pot. They get me. Lucky doesn't begin to describe.

The devastating loss of my husband of 40 years. Here is his obituary.

Chicago, IL – Hidemasa Yamakawa, 61, passed away at Lutheran General Hospital on Friday, May 3, 2024, after more than a year-long battle with lymphoma. He was born July 21, 1962, in Ishigaki, Ishigaki Island, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, the son of Shinsaburo and Reiko Yamakawa.

Mr. Yamakawa made a formidable life journey from the small island of Ishigaki to a career in finance on Wall Street, followed by financial positions with JP Morgan, Citibank, and PPMA, selling asset management products and managing portfolios totaling billions. Along the way he touched and enriched the lives of many people in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the United States, where he became a citizen in 2004.

After completing high school on Ishigaki Island, Mr. Yamakawa attended the University of Japan in Tokyo where he earned a bachelor’s degree in law. He then joined the Japanese foreign service and was posted to Lagos, Nigeria where he met his wife, Suzanne E. Scott, an American, working at the Japanese Embassy. He went on to earn a Masters of International Affairs at Columbia University’s SIPA program in New York City in 1992, and a Sloan Program MBA at London Business School in 1998. Mr. and Mrs. Yamakawa resided in West Africa for roughly four years from 1993 to 1997, and New York City from 1999 until 2008, when Mr. Yamakawa moved to Chicago. Suzanne followed to join him there in 2012. They had been married over 39 years at the time of Mr. Yamakawa’s death.

His appreciation for the beauty of life sustained him while working long hours in finance. He was fiercely attuned to the notion of ‘beauty,’ particularly the blooming of the world each Spring, and the inner beauty of the people he met along his journey. “Hide” (He Day), as his friends knew him, was loved for his infectious laugh, smile, and generous spirit. His success in finance can most certainly be attributed to this – he built deep, long-term relationships, and was very highly regarded. He was powerfully moved by the human struggle, often helping others in his network to overcome their difficult challenges. As an artist and art lover, he acquired unique paintings that spoke to him directly and was an avid self-trained photographer and an opera lover. Mr. Yamakawa had a small terrier mix dog named Bo, whom he was utterly devoted to.

Surviving Hidemasa Yamakawa are his wife; his sisters Kimiko Nikai of Ishigaki, Okinawa and Kazumi Yamakawa of Tokyo; his brother, Hidekazu Yamakawa of Ishigaki, Okinawa; and nephews Akihide Nikai and Tomotaka Yamakawa, both of Tokyo.

A Memorial Service is scheduled for May 18, 2024, from 2:00pm to 5:00pm at the Midtown Funeral Home, 3918 West Irving Park Road, Chicago, IL 60618. Donations in lieu of flowers can be made to Slavery International.

Waking up each day, the people who know and love me anyway, music - any and all, my beloved dog - Bo, a healthy husband, sunshine, the entire animal kingdom, Mother Nature, my brothers and my mother. These are the things that give me joy and for which I am grateful. Not just today, but every day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my favorite older brother, Bill Scott. You are caring, thoughtful, funny, informed, and incredibly loyal. You've had my back in all things car mechanics related, and are my hero when it comes to figuring everything out. You are the perfect combination of fortitude and gentleness. Love you like crazy! Your sister, Suzy
