How often do you take time for yourself to reset, recover, explore, experiment and develop a new skill? What if this was a normal part of our lives - how different would you life be right now? We don't believe in vacations, we believe in Sabbaticals. Listen more about it in today's episode! :)

This japanese concept translates as: a reason for being, and it talks about finding your purpose in life. The question that we have is - How often does our purpose change and what to do about it? For many of us it was a real struggle to find what we love to do and what we are good at. When it came to creating a business around it, that became a challenge of itself.
