Female Entrepreneur × AI Beginner
Mari-chan's seminar was my true introduction to AI.
Yuki Anazawa
(Hypnotherapist)
Mari-chan's seminar was my true introduction to AI.
Before that, I had been using stiff, formal prompts to give instructions—and honestly, it never felt right. Most of all, I wasn't enjoying it.Then I watched Mari-chan casually speak into her microphone and create content in no time—I was amazed!
From that moment, I started using ChatGPT like I was talking to a friend.Over the past year, I'd been figuring things out on my own, but video and image tools remained a mystery. I even paid for a full year of Midjourney and barely used it—what a waste!
In this course, I learned to create short videos so quickly—and it actually feels like something I can do on my own. That made me so happy.But what impressed me most was Mari-chan's custom GPT.The "True Dreams Discovery Coach" is incredible!
It starts by helping you release mental blocks, then guides you to put your dreams into words. The whole process felt so natural—I found myself reflecting deeply without even trying.I created a vision video of traveling to Italy with my husband. Through the process, I discovered why Italy meant so much to me. Feelings I had completely forgotten came flooding back—I was truly surprised.
As a hypnotherapist, I help clients realize their dreams. Visualization is a powerful technique, and I'm now convinced that combining it with AI will make it even more effective.I can't wait to turn this into content and share it with my clients.Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart!
Starting a Business from Scratch with AI × Behind-the-Scenes Support
Before taking the course, I had a real mental block when it came to AI.
Kaorun, Mama Sapo
(Producer & Business Partner for Mom Entrepreneurs)
I could manage ChatGPT—just barely—but that was about it.
Thanks to AI Mari-chan's course, I discovered how fun AI can be, and now I actually feel excited about it! ✨
When she taught us how to create animated banners, I was able to monetize my behind-the-scenes skills for the very first time.
Inspired by what I learned, I've now decided to host my own seminar! 😊
Mari-chan's courses are hands-on, fun, and incredibly practical—I highly recommend them for anyone who wants to learn AI for personal growth, as well as moms just starting their entrepreneurial journey. ✨
I'm so excited about the membership community too!Thank you so much! 😊

Bringing Your Vision to Life with Mariko’s Support
Akiko Oikawa
(EQ Picture Book Instructor® / Creative Design Coordinator)
Within the lecture time—in just 30 minutes—I had my dream list organized, a short video script written, and even AI-generated images created!
This was all possible because Mariko built such an easy-to-follow system and guided us so thoughtfully.☺️✨
As I worked through it, I truly felt like the ideas were sinking into my subconscious.🥹
I can't wait to create more! ❣️
Age 60 × First Time with AI × Entrepreneur
I never knew AI could be this fun!
Yoko Fujita
(Maya Calendar Mind Coach)
Thanks to Mari-chan, I was able to approach AI without hesitation and actually enjoy getting to know it—even though it once seemed so intimidating. This is the best!
At 61, as someone from a totally analog generation, my world is expanding in ways I never imagined!(^^)
And the fact that we can resell the materials and use them freely? That's incredibly generous!♡
