The Ikigai Foundation

Ikigai (, pronounced [ikiɡai]) is a Japanese concept that means "a reason for being." The word "ikigai" is usually used to indicate the source of value in one's life or the things that make one's life worthwhile. We are a collective of International Coach Federation (ICF) Certified Coaches (#lifecoach) specializing in working with professionals to help find their 'IKIGAI'- the point in life where work meets play - where we can find that core purpose in life that not only encompasses what we love; but also what we are good at, what the world needs and what we can make a living on. We help create an overlap between living a life and making a living, where every morning is an energized continuity in our meaningful life.(#theikigaiwarrior) Join our journey to explore the layers of conditioning and self-belief that have buried our authentic self and work with us to help you peel off these layers, brush off the accumulated rust and fatigue to build that which makes you shine. We need to define our own parameters of success and be empowered to face the fears that keep our brilliance under wraps. “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves,'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ― Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of "A Course in Miracles"
