Design A New Life with Ikigai & Yutori

A 2-hour live workshop to help you find clarity, purpose, and breathing room.

In Japan, there's a word for the life you're meant to live — ikigai. And another for the unhurried spaciousness that makes living it possible — yutori. Together, they offer something most of us are quietly craving: a way to live with both purpose and ease.

In two focused hours, you'll explore what ikigai and yutori actually mean — not as abstract philosophy, but as practical tools for designing a life that feels unmistakably yours. You'll leave with more than knowledge. You'll leave with direction.

LIVE 2-HOUR WORKSHOP WEBINAR

WHEN

Thursday June 18th.

HOW

The webinar will be held via zoom.

YOUR HOSTS

NICHOLAS KEMP

Nicholas Kemp is an international keynote speaker, facilitator, author, and founder of Ikigai Tribe.

He spent over a decade living in Japan and collaborates with leading Japanese researchers, including Prof. Ken Mogi and Professor Daiki Kato, on ikigai and related concepts such as rolefulness and ibasho.

His Ikigai Coach Certification represents the culmination of his lived experience in Japan, together with more than six years of dedicated research and study into the psychology and practice of ikigai.

CHIE SAWA

With over 20 years of clinical experience and a lifelong passion for psychology, Chie Sawa has had the profound privilege of witnessing human transformation up close, including co-founding and leading a group private practice.

From that foundation, she felt called to create something beyond traditional psychotherapy: a sanctuary for thoughtful, creative, intuitive, and introspective leaders. A space to pause, breathe, and set aside the roles they carry before returning to the world with clear energy and a light heart. That vision became Thrive Life Design.

It's especially for you if you are:

Coaches and facilitators wanting to bring deeper purpose frameworks into your work

WARNING!

IKIGAI IS NOT A FRAMEWORK!

THE ABOVE VENN DIAGRAM IS NOT THE IKIGAI CONCEPT

Most coaches unknowingly use this misrepresented version of ikigai. In this workshop, you’ll learn the culturally accurate meaning backed by Japanese research — so you can coach with authenticity and authority.
