 Ever wondered why some people seem to wake up full of purpose while the rest of us hit snooze five times? The secret might be Ikigai—Japan’s unique concept of a meaningful life. But forget the complicated life-coach diagrams! In this episode, we break it down the real Japanese way—through small joys, daily rituals, and things that make you smile (yes, even your morning coffee counts!). Tune in to discover what Ikigai really is, where it comes from, and how you might already have it without even realizing it! 

 目覚めた瞬間からやる気に満ちている人がいる一方で、スヌーズを5回も押してしまう人がいるのはなぜでしょう?その秘密は、日本独自の「生き甲斐」にあるかも!! でも、よくある自己啓発の考えは忘れてください!このエピソードでは、本当の日本流の生き甲斐をわかりやすく紹介します。小さな喜び、日々の習慣、そしてあなたを笑顔にするもの(そう、朝のコーヒーなど!)を通じて、生き甲斐とは何か?どこから来たのか?そして、あなたもすでに生き甲斐を持っているかもしれないということを一緒に探っていきましょう!
