In the 6th installment, we spoke to Miku Ando, ​​who is involved in the launch and management of the women's career school "ICORE." Based on her own experience, Ms. Ando, ​​who is working to create a world where women can choose their own way of living and working, what does it mean to be an authentic person?

===Profile===

After graduating from university, joined Denso Corporation and gained experience in sales and human resources. Afterwards, she loses her career when her husband is posted overseas and worries about the meaning of her existence. I decided not to give up on my life or career due to the change in life stage, and after returning to Japan, I worked at four side jobs in addition to my main job, and became independent in 2020. Currently, she runs ICORE, an online career school for women , with Sakurako Kita .

<About the past>

As I entered the workforce and was worried about my changing life stage and career, I decided that I wanted to work on my own, so I tried various jobs in addition to my main job, including blogging, web design, and fitness-related work. . The things I do seem to be disjointed, but my core has always been ``I want to contribute to women's happiness.''

I started living my life according to my true feelings, ``I want to do 〇〇, instead of ``I should do 〇〇, and now, for the first time, I feel like I'm living my own life. Rather than being bound by what others think is correct or common sense, I live my life in a way that is true to my heart and what I really want to do. I think so.

<About MELE MELE jewelry>

I thought the streamlined design, or rather the simple and timeless design, was really nice, and I thought the price was just right. If it's an expensive item, I don't know what to do if I lose it...

<Future goals>

ICORE is a place where women who often worry about changing life stages and careers, who are self-centered in an era of change, can find what they want to do, and learn the skills to make it a reality all at once. Most of the people who come here are in their late 20's to early 30's, and we launched with the theme of being a place where people can live and work in their own way, for example, when getting married or having children. I am.

First of all, I really want to give ICORE a solid shape and make it a place where people can say, ``ICORE is the place where you can live and work in your own way.''

<Jewelry worn by Ando>

A ring that will make your hands look gorgeous just by wearing it.

The silver color is the same as the surgical stainless steel material, so there is no need to worry about discoloration.
