Episode 7 - Ikigai : The Meaning of Life Lies Within You

from Lisa wanna talk · host lisawannatalk

Hi, I'm Lisa and welcome to Lisa wanna talk. Today, I’d like to gently open a conversation with you—about Ikigai, and the quiet question of what makes life feel worth living. Ikigai is a concept that comes from Japan, a word that doesn’t quite settle into any single translation. If we follow its literal meaning, it speaks of “a reason that makes one want to live.” Yet even that feels like only the surface of something deeper.It is the thing we all, in our own ways, are searching for—sometimes loudly, sometimes in silence. A sense of purpose. A quiet joy. A reason to rise, to continue, to be.And perhaps the most beautiful part is this: what we are searching for is not far away. It has always been there—softly waiting, somewhere within us.That,in essence, is Ikigai. You are welcome to write or leave a comment, and it would be great if you could share or follow this channel. [email protected] Support me or buy me a coffee: https://pay.firstory.me/user/lisawannatalk
