At the start of the pandemic, Saori Okada left her job working in media analytics in New York City to start Mogami Wellness, her wellness coaching business.  Based in London, Saori now coaches organisations and community managers on how to build trustful and authentic teams using Japanese concepts of wellbeing.

In this episode we talk about 'Ikigai' the Japanese concept that is often translated as 'Purpose'.  In fact the concept encompasses much more than that and includes authenticity and living intentionally.

Topics covered in this episode:

1. Ikigai and longevity
2. The Ikigai 'Venn Diagram' and where this came from;
3. What Ikigai really means
4. Self-care practices and how Japanese traditional arts like calligraphy encourage mindfullness.
5. Blue Zones and the importance of looking at longevity beyond diet.
