IS COACHING YOUR IKIGAI?
If you are a coach, psychologist or educator then ikigai is a life philosophy that you can use to help your clients live a fulfilling and meaningful life.
A concept relatable to positive psychology, ikigai offers you a way to guide others to live with motivation and resilience in times of hardship, opening them up to the path of self-actualisation.
Ikigai has become one of Japan's most misunderstood words and culturally appropriated concepts.
Ikigai is not a term from Okinawa. It’s not the Japanese secret to longevity. It's not a Venn diagram showing you how to find your bliss or become a successful entrepreneur. And it’s not the pursuit of a single life purpose.
Become an Ikigai Tribe coach and gain access to an evidence-based methodology supported by Japan's leading researchers.

IKIGAI MISUNDERSTOOD
The below Venn diagram does not accurately represent ikigai. It is not a framework of doing something that you love, that you are good at, that the world needs, and that you can be paid for.
