EP: 012 Finding Your Purpose In Life, The Japanese Secret of Ikigai w/ Neil Bage Modern Financial Wellness

    • Self-Improvement

On this episode I talk with Neil Bage about Ikigai, the Japanese concept that combines the words "Iki" or "Life" and "Gai" or "Worth".  Combined the word Ikigai means, "That which gives your life worth, meaning, or purpose".

Finding purpose and living a life filled with meaning are important things to pursue, but these concepts can sometimes feel difficult to approach.   Exploring Ikigai can be a helpful way to get started thinking about the things that are most important to you and how you want to be spending your time making a living. 

During the conversation we delve into... 
The 4 key elements of Ikigai: What you love.What you can get paid for.What the world needs.What you are good at.How the concept connects to our financial world.Why balancing what we love and how we get paid can be challenging and how to reconcile some of the conflict we find in our lives. ... And much more.

WELLBEING:
