Today I have the privilege of speaking with Internationally Recognized Professional Speaker and Self-Leadership Expert, Clinton Young. His mission as a world-class coach for aspiring speakers and entrepreneurs is to positively impact the hearts, minds, and lives of thousands of people from the stage. He enables confidence and helps individuals overcome fear and live the life of their dreams through a shift in positive consciousness.
Clinton's journey to becoming a speaker was everything but traditional. Back in 2008, after the global economic crisis, Clinton found himself at a crossroads feeling lost, confused, and with the need of re-igniting his human spirit. Just like every human, he had a desire to be happy, fulfilled, and full of life yet lacked the knowledge of how to achieve this.
After a pivotal moment during a public presentation, he realized that inspiring and being of service to others, was where his purpose in life lied.
Now he travels all over the world helping people awaken to their greatness, become self-actualized, and find their Ikigai.
During our conversation, Clinton highlights very important topics about life and personal growth. He recommends not only surrounding ourselves with people we admire but also implementing big thinking, action, and faith in our path to success. He looks at finding purpose from a different angle as he believes this is something that is only revealed to us when we start doing the things we love, rather than chasing after it.
In this uplifting episode, we cover things like how limiting beliefs are formed, how child-like confidence is a game-changer for winning in life, Clinton's process of finding his Ikigai, his magic success formula, the discovery process for when you feel stuck, the law of attraction, and so much more!
Things you will learn in this episode:
-The difference between academic and personal development.
-The importance of surrounding ourselves with people who challenge our thinking.
-Tactics to elevate every area of your life.
-Why you should always follow your intuition.
-How to overcome limiting beliefs and stop the cycle of negative self-talk.

Welcome to this episode of The Ikigaia Podcast!
Wouldn't it be amazing to live and operate in your zone of genius? That sweet spot between what you're great at and what fulfills you at work.
Finding your purpose and making an impact on the world or others and still be able to make a living.
Today's guest is Geoffrey Hucker, CEO, and founder at Work For Impact, a freelance platform targeting environmentally responsible and nonprofit organizations, and connecting freelancers to job opportunities within them.
He is also the founder and director of Beyond The Orphanage, a non-profit organization that enables and empowers at-risk orphaned children from developing nations to become self-reliant adults.
Geoff's path to purpose started 20 years ago during a trip to Ethiopia where he saw first hand the extreme and harsh conditions in which street kids lived around the country.
Such disheartened reality flipped a switch inside him and encouraged him to start working towards making a positive impact in their communities which later on expanded to other developing countries.
During this time, he also saw the need for hiring like-minded people willing and motivated to build a community around his core values while working in their zone of genius and serving a greater good.
In this episode, Geoff gives us a deep insight into what it means to find a sense of purpose at work, and in life, we talk about what purpose and zone of genius mean to him, how millennials are looking to work for companies they believe in and stand for, the lessons he has learned in his time as a leader of these organizations, he even shares his advice on how to get started in the freelancing world, and much more!
In all his endeavors, Geoff seeks to make the world a better place, one life at a time. His work focuses on shaping a world with opportunities regardless of your differences, race, religion, sexual orientation, or physical location.
He strongly believes that even as individuals we can make significant changes in people's lives as long as we find meaning and purpose in what we do.

What if you could combine the joy from doing something and a sense of purpose? A way of feeling that your life is valuable, that you have an impact regardless of your age or social status.

William Reed is a Japanologist and Renaissance Samurai who has spent the last 48 years living in Japan and pursuing his passion for Japanese culture. He is a bilingual professor at the International College of Liberal Arts located in the Yamanashi Prefecture, has an 8th-degree black belt in Aikido, and a 10th-degree rank in brush calligraphy and regularly appears on Japanese television, Samurai documentaries, and radio.
This episode is truly fascinating as we dive deep into the meaning of Ikigai and how this concept can help you live more intentionally.
We talk about Shodō or calligraphy as a way of life, the importance of lifelong learning, how to maintain youthfulness and energy, how he pivoted from in-person to remote teaching, and the online courses he has created as a result of the changes the world is experiencing.
Since the COVID-19 Crisis forced many people to rethink the way that they do business, in the past 4 months, Will has not only successfully shifted his business online, but has created new opportunities and products in the process.
In some ways because of the crisis, he found the focus to bring all of the elements of his IKIGAI to the same place.
