Ikigai is a Japanese term meaning "a reason for being". Ikigai has a fluid and an evolutive nature, and is not a destination but rather a journey in discovering self. In this podcast, we look at what ikigai means, the nature of it and how one can find it. We also look at what is the relation between a long and fulfilling life and discover the distinction between our purpose and our motive. 

With the beginning of 2021, many of us will plan this year, will define how we aspire to carry this year further. May we all find our purpose by finding our ikigai. Our warmest wishes for a happy year ahead!
