Explore Your Ikigai - Purpose Beyond the Venn Diagram
My talk, "Explore Your Ikigai" encourages the audience to look at “life purpose” and meaning in a different way to the conventional (Westernised), quick-fix explanation of ikigai, thus removing the suffocating pressure that comes with striving for perfection, people-pleasing and valuable life time "running out." Ikigai is NOT a magic formula for finding that elusive life purpose, but it is a total game-changer for living life with a greater sense of purpose. If you would like your teams to explore the benefits of living with more purpose, let’s continue the conversation.

I delivered my talk, "Explore Your Ikigai" at the International Festival of Yoga in Manchester last July. It encourages the audience to look at “life purpose” and meaning in a different way to the conventional (Westernised), quick-fix explanation of ikigai, thus removing the suffocating pressure that comes with striving for perfection, people-pleasing and valuable life time "running out." Ikigai is NOT a magic formula for finding that elusive life purpose, but it is a total game-changer for living life with a greater sense of purpose.
