Who is Your Ikigai Guide?
Welcome to Your Ikigai Guide, a space dedicated to exploring the concept of Ikigai—a Japanese philosophy that helps individuals find their purpose in life. But before we dive into the journey of discovering your Ikigai, let me introduce myself and share the story behind this platform.
About Me
My name is Claire, and I’m the face and voice behind Your Ikigai Guide. I’m a busy lady with a corporate career, a side-hustle as a Life coach, a Mommy and a wife! But most importantly, I'm passionate about finding my purpose and supporting others find purpose, fulfilment, and joy in their lives. My journey to discovering Ikigai began when I found myself unfulfilled by my part-time business. It was taking a lot of my time and I felt that it simply didn't fulfil me, something was missing. At that point I decided that if I were to identify another side-hustle or a new hobby, it had to something that I loved.
This realisation sparked my interest in self-discovery, personal growth, and the deeper meaning behind our daily lives. I started researching the principles of Ikigai, and put together a plan for how I will find my purpose! Now, I’m on a mission to share this knowledge, find my Ikigai and live my life accordingly! Hopefully, I can also support others in their quest to find their own Ikigai too.
Why Your Ikigai Guide?
This is not just another self-help Instagram account and blog; it’s a journey we’re taking together. I’m not an expert claiming to have all the answers—I’m a fellow traveler on this path, committed to sharing my experiences, learnings, and insights with you. I genuinely have no idea where this is going to go!
Through this platform, I aim to:
Educate: Provide valuable content that breaks down the concept of Ikigai into simple, actionable steps.
Inspire: Share personal stories and examples of the things that have worked for me and how to apply them yourself.
Support: Create a community where we can share our challenges, successes, and insights as we work towards finding our purpose.
What You Can Expect
I'll be on Instagram daily from day one of my search. Each day will be a post with a new 'idea' to try to find your Ikigai. You'll see me exploring the idea and coming to my own resolutions. Also in my stories, you'll see my reactions, which I imagine will hold a variety of emotions. Here on the website, you'll find my weekly blog, where I'll aim to summarise my findings. You can sign up to the newsletter, where I'll send the blog directly to your inbox each week.
My Vision
I believe that everyone has a unique purpose, a reason for being that aligns their passions, talents, and values. My vision for Your Ikigai Guide is to be a supportive resource that empowers you to find your Ikigai, leading to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
Join the Journey
Whether you’re feeling lost, searching for more meaning in your life, or simply curious about Ikigai, I invite you to join me on this journey. Together, we’ll explore the principles of Ikigai, challenge ourselves to grow, and ultimately find the purpose that brings us joy and satisfaction.
Thank you for being here—I’m excited to walk this path with you.
