Welcome to the second episode of our miniseries on Finding Your Ikigai, where we invite a series of guests to explore what it truly means to live a good life, incorporating the concept of Ikigai alongside Providend’s Philosophy of Sufficiency. 

As trusted advisers to affluent clients for over two decades, we’ve always advocated that clients prioritise life decisions before financial ones. These life decisions are what we refer to as "Ikigai" decisions. 

In this episode, our Founder and CEO, Christopher Tan, sits down with Stanley Ng, Founder of Mindful Circle, a not-for-profit social enterprise, and Founder and Managing Director of Sage Capital Management Advisors, a private advisory firm for top management within corporates, banks, and financial institutions. 

Stanley, also a client of Providend, shares his journey from being law-trained, transitioning into the banking industry, becoming a consultant, and now being involved in the philosophy of mindfulness and the importance of being present in the moment—injecting Ikigai moments even into the most mundane tasks. Listen to the full podcast conversation and share it with a friend.

Through deep conversations with our advisers, you will gain clarity on what matters most in life and what needs to be done to live a good life, both financially and non-financially—with your Ikigai goals at the forefront of your wealth plan.
