A business coach introduced this exercise to me a few years ago & it really helped me get more clear on how I wanted to show up as a coach & help others… in a way that would be most fulfilling to me, AND sustain me financially.

So, I thought I’d pass this along to you!

This is an exercise that helps you explore a few different perspectives on yourself to help you gain more clarity on your life purpose.

It originates from Okinawa, Japan, a region known for its high life expectancy and low rates of chronic disease.

“Ikigai” translates to “reason for being” or “purpose in life,” & is deeply rooted in Japanese culture and philosophy.

This concept + exercise combines what will help you find joy in life, pursue what you’re passionate, and contribute to society.
