Podcasts about Ikigai

As AI tools like ChatGPT are increasingly capable of analysing financial data, generating reports, and answering complex questions in seconds, many have asked: could AI truly replace a human wealth adviser?Being trusted advisers to our affluent clients for over two decades, this Providend series began with an article by our Client Advisers on clients navigating major life transitions. The podcast goes further, exploring the thoughts behind these transitions.In this podcast episode, Chin Yu and our host, Isaac, explore the challenges of managing a significant inheritance through the case of Nicholas, 35, a regional marketing manager who recently received $3 million following his father's passing. They discuss how inheritance often comes with emotional overload, feelings of guilt, and the pressure to make the “right” financial choices, especially while still grieving and managing the estate.Chin Yu highlights the role of AI tools like ChatGPT, which can provide fast, structured guidance, but stresses that thoughtful wealth planning requires deeper reflection on what a meaningful life, filled with Ikigai-driven decisions, would look like.To better understand the discussion, you may start by reading Chin Yu's article here: Can AI Replace a Human Adviser in Inheritance Planning?Music courtesy of ItsWatR.The host of this episode, Isaac Ong, is a Client Adviser at Providend, the first fee-only wealth advisory firm in Southeast Asia and a leading wealth advisory firm in Asia.Did you know that our Providend's Money Wisdom podcast is now available in video format on YouTube?

Most realtors try to do everything alone. That is exactly why they stay stuck. In EP 288, Maude sits down with David Wen (Royal LePage) to break down how top agents actually scale in 2026: by hiring smarter people, building real systems, using AI like a real business, and creating deep relationships that generate repeat clients and referrals. David shares how he grew from solo agent to leading a team, why he focuses on discovering underutilized talent, how he uses tools like ChatGPT and AI workflows to save time and increase execution, and why “doing more” is not the answer. He also explains his team's PD Days (professional development led by the agents), his approach to prospecting without burning out, and how business cross-pollination creates leverage most agents never tap into. If you want to scale without doing everything yourself, this one is a must.   Timestamps 00:00 Intro: Stop doing everything alone 02:40 David's growth story and building infrastructure (not just sales) 05:20 Ikigai: the alignment framework for real fulfilment 07:15 Prospecting without cold calling (relationships and hobbies) 09:20 The real scaling shift: hire smarter than you 12:00 Discovering underutilized talent (handyman story, real leverage) 15:20 AI adoption: why it is not optional (workflow + time savings) 19:00 Cross-pollination: restaurant, networking, real estate leverage 22:20 PD Day: how he develops agents into leaders 31:30 Advice for agents in a down market (prospecting, avoid shiny lead traps) 36:55 2026 focus: sustainable growth, no burnout 44:00 Outro + book a strategy call   Connect with David Wen Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wen.davidd/ & https://www.instagram.com/uprealty.ca/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/uprealty.ca Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-wen/ Website: https://uprealty.ca/   Connect with Maude Léger & Sold Right Away:  Website: https://www.soldrightaway.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/soldrightaway Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soldrightaway/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/soldrightaway Links & Resources: https://linktr.ee/soldrightaway  

In deze aflevering van The Autonomy Show gaan host Leandro Valentino en Chai Lin Lim (Monflo) in gesprek met Niels Lunsing – oprichter van Studio Nieuwe Tijd, voormalig AVRO TROS-radiomaker en fulltime ondernemer.Niels startte zijn podcast in 2018 omdat hij zag dat de mainstream media niet het hele verhaal vertelden. Wat begon als een nieuwsgierige zoektocht naar "hoe het echt zit", groeide uit tot een wekelijkse videoshow met een eigen studio, een groeiend netwerk en een missie: bewustzijn vergroten en mensen inspireren om andere keuzes te maken.In dit gesprek gaan we diep in op:

„Der Coaching-Markt ist doch völlig übersättigt, oder?"   Eine Frage, die wir in den letzten Jahren immer häufiger hören – von angehenden Coaches genauso wie von erfahrenen Kolleg:innen.   In der aktuellen Podcastfolge der Coachingbande gehen wir dieser Frage ehrlich und differenziert nach. Ohne Marketing-Versprechen. Ohne Panikmache. Ohne Schönfärberei.   Wir sprechen über: ▪️ Zahlen, Trends und Mythen rund um den Coaching-Markt ▪️ Warum „übersättigt" keine hilfreiche Kategorie ist ▪️ In welchen Segmenten es tatsächlich eng wird – und warum ▪️ Wo nach wie vor echte Chancen liegen ▪️ Warum Qualität, Haltung und Positionierung entscheidender sind als Lautstärke ▪️ Und weshalb schnelle „Coach-werden-Versprechen" der Branche eher schaden als helfen

Have you ever felt like your real life will begin after you lose the weight? In this deeply honest episode of The Confident Body Podcast, we explore one powerful question: How do I find my purpose? This conversation began with a simple question from my daughter, and it led to something so many women are quietly wondering themselves. If you've been waiting to feel confident, worthy, or ready before stepping into your calling, this episode is for you. Because your purpose is not hiding under your body. It's available right now. In This Episode, We Cover: The real science behind discovering your purpose Why waiting for weight loss keeps you stuck The difference between “life purpose” and “season purpose” Four research-backed ways to uncover meaning in your life Why your path may feel slow, unclear, or meandering How to stop postponing your gifts You'll also hear my personal story of searching for purpose, including a pivotal 1am moment of asking, “What's the point of all this?” There was no lightning bolt answer, but that question began a trail of breadcrumbs that led me exactly where I was meant to go. If you've ever felt behind, confused, or unsure of your calling, this episode will remind you that growth often feels like wandering while it's happening. We explore four research-backed pathways to discovering purpose: Ikigai – the intersection of what you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for Values clarification – identifying what truly matters to you beyond a number on the scale Energy audits – noticing what lights you up and what drains you Service-based meaning – how contribution expands your life Your life does not begin after the scale changes. It begins when you decide to show up. PS: Let's spread this message There are women who need to hear that their purpose is not 20 pounds away. If you host a podcast, or you know someone whose audience includes women stuck in the weight loss waiting room, I would love to bring this conversation to them. You can reach me at: lizzie@confidentbody.coach Let's get this message into the hands of the women who are ready to stop waiting.   Get the book my new book LIGHT: The New Psychology of Weight Loss CLICK HERE to get it in ebook format.

"If you say something over and over often and enough, it becomes true because perception is reality."  Paul O'Callaghan has built a career at the intersection of water science, wastewater realities, and the practical question every operator and executive eventually faces; what actually moves innovation from idea to adoption.  As Founder and CEO of BlueTech Research, Paul explains how his team helps decision-makers put capital to work more efficiently in water by reducing uncertainty and separating signal from noise. He describes patterns he's watched repeat across water entrepreneurs, pilots, and product market fit, and why "innovation" often breaks down simply because utilities, investors, and founders are using the same word to mean different things.    Capital, fit, and the language gap Paul unpacks what it takes to align an investor's expectations with a technology's true pathway to scale. He contrasts different "types" of innovation and why matching the right investor, entrepreneur, market, and timeline matters as much as the technology itself. The conversation also highlights why solving a problem someone has today is often a safer starting point than betting everything on a problem that might arrive tomorrow.  Regulations as a driver and a risk  Regulation matters in water and wastewater, but Paul cautions against building an entire business on the hope that rules will create a market on schedule. He walks through timing risk, enforcement uncertainty, and why tracking policy momentum matters as much as tracking the text of the regulation itself. He also notes a shift toward more "aspirational" regulation focused on reuse, regeneration, and systems-level outcomes.  Storytelling that changes adoption  From Brave Blue World to Our Blue World, Paul shares what he learned about making water personal and compelling without reducing it to doom-and-gloom narratives. The stories he tells connect to a core professional challenge: technologies enable outcomes, but adoption accelerates when people can see and want the "better" future those outcomes create.  Listen to the full conversation above.

Macht im Coaching – ein Thema, das wir gerne vermeiden. Und genau deshalb so relevant ist.   In der aktuellen Podcastfolge sprechen wir offen über ein Thema, das im Coaching immer präsent ist – auch dann, wenn wir es nicht benennen: Macht. Denn Coaching ist kein machtfreier Raum.   Allein durch Rolle, Expertise, Prozesssteuerung, Deutungen und Fragen entsteht Einfluss. Die entscheidende Frage ist nicht ob wir Macht haben – sondern wie bewusst und verantwortungsvoll wir damit umgehen.   In dieser Folge geht es u. a. um: ▪️ Definitions- und Prozessmacht im Coaching ▪️ subtile Formen von Einfluss und Zuschreibung ▪️ Machtmissbrauch vs. professionelle Verantwortung ▪️ Macht in Firmencoachings und Dreiecksverhältnissen ▪️ Diversität, Privilegien und blinde Flecken ▪️ und ganz konkret: Was Coaches tun können, um Macht reflektiert zu nutzen – statt sie unbewusst wirken zu lassen

"Die Sache mit der Schweigepflicht – rechtliche und ethische Basics für Coaches" Die unbequeme Wahrheit: Coaches haben KEINE gesetzliche Schweigepflicht. Schockierend? Ja. Das Ende professioneller Vertraulichkeit? Nein! In dieser Folge sprechen wir über: Warum "Coach" rechtlich nicht geschützt ist – und was das bedeutet Welche Verpflichtungen wir trotzdem haben (Spoiler: jede Menge!) Firmencoaching: Wer ist eigentlich mein Kunde, wenn die Firma zahlt? Die harten Fragen: Wann MUSS ich die Vertraulichkeit brechen? Online-Coaching & Datenschutz: Was du unbedingt beachten musst Supervision & Kollegialer Austausch: Darf ich über Fälle sprechen? Für wen ist diese Folge? ✅ Coaches, die professionell arbeiten wollen ✅ Klient:innen, die wissen möchten, worauf sie achten sollten ✅ Alle, die verstehen wollen: Was bedeutet Vertraulichkeit wirklich? Unser Fazit: Keine gesetzliche Pflicht ≠ keine Verantwortung. Wer seriös coacht, setzt sich selbst hohe Standards.

“Ikigai" felsefesinden yola çıkarak, sadece portföyümüzün değil, hayatımızın da "indirgenmiş nakit akışını" hesaplıyor ve mutluluğu yarına ertelemenin maliyetini tartışıyoruz. Kendi yolunu çizen penguenden sessiz istifaya uzanan bu yolculukta, iş kimliğinin ötesine geçmenin ve Robert Frost'un bahsettiği "gidilmeyen yolları" seçmenin formülünü masaya yatırıyoruz.

Anxiety isn't a malfunction to be silenced; it's a message asking to be heard. We sit down with therapist and educator Catherine Deeks Gnocchi to rethink fear through the lenses of evolution, mindfulness-based psychotherapy, and Japanese ikigai—revealing how anxiety can guide you back to your values and toward a life that actually fits.Catherine breaks down the nervous system in plain language: anxiety mobilizes the sympathetic “protect” response, while empathy and connection restore the parasympathetic “recover” state. We trace how early defenses like fawning or avoidance become adult habits, why shame can freeze growth, and how healthy guilt, curiosity, and self-compassion help us update old patterns. Catherine shares insights from her research on anxiety and empathy among university students, why these traits can rise together in demanding environments, and how lived experience of suffering often deepens compassion.From there, we get practical. We map values-based therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Self-Determination Theory into simple steps: clarify values, spot triggers, name roles, and take small, repeatable actions that honor who you are. We explore ikigai as everyday meaning—not a grand purpose but a daily feeling found in small rituals, mindful walks, shared meals, and moments of real connection. Ibasho, a sense of belonging you can carry anywhere, becomes the anchor for authenticity across life's roles. Along the way, two mantras keep us grounded: thoughts are not facts, and anxiety is your friend.If you're ready to replace reflex with awareness and turn fear into direction, this conversation offers science, story, and tools you can use today. Listen, share with someone who needs it, and if it resonated, subscribe and leave a review so more people can find the show.

At fifteen, her first song emerged from an English class assignment, built on three chords and sung with friends. That simple moment with a guitar quietly began a path she could never leave. Born in Santiago, Chile, she was raised among films, music, and poetry, where art persistently called to her. Through mentors and fellow artists, she found stages, collaborators, and the understanding that art was a way to inhabit the world.By nineteen, she began recording and performing with bands. She rebuilt her project, co-founded the independent label Caída Libre, and adopted the name Mueres en el Mar, embracing a sound that merges technology and nature, emotion and instinct. Inspired by artists like Björk and Aurora, she chose to create freely, allowing contradiction, tenderness, rage, and silence to coexist.Under that name, she released the EP La timidez de los eucaliptus and the album Ikigai (2023), supported by Chile's Ministry of Culture. She performed at major festivals and earned national recognition. After a period in Toronto, she is now based in Nova Scotia, rebuilding her project, writing in English, and performing with renewed clarity. Alongside her own work, she studies and supports other artists through creative management. Her story continues to unfold.More @maca.mnm@wearemueres@sellocaidalibre

"MOURN", es una joven banda catalana con una historia sorprendente; cuando algunas de ellas eran todavía menores, giraron por varios países y publicaron discos con uno de los sellos más importantes de Brooklyn. Todas esas experiencias, más allá de ser sorprendentes, forjaron una amistad y una complicidad muy fuertes entre las componentes del grupo. Y eso se nota en sus directos y en sus discos. Ahora nos presentan lo que es ya su sexto trabajo grande, "Letra Ligada". Todas las canciones de este nuevo disco están cantadas en castellano y hablan de imaginación, fantasía y también de historias cotidianas. En la producción han contado con el noruego Kenneth Ishak, que ha hecho un trabajo excelente, con un resultado luminoso y cargado de detalles sutiles. Hablamos de esta nueva entrega y de la trayectoria de "MOURN", con Carla Pérez Vas, cantante y guitarrista de la banda.""Francesc Miralles" es escritor, conferenciante por todo el mundo y habitual colaborador de los medios de comunicación. Entre otros libros, es coautor del ensayo "Ikigai", traducido a 70 idiomas y líder de ventas durante meses en muchos países. Ahora viene a nuestro programa con una novela en la que se plantean las grandes cuestiones de la vida, gracias a un diálogo telefónico entre Dios y el protagonista del relato. Este libro inspirador y cargado de humor, nos hace reflexionar sobre la naturaleza y el sentido de nuestras vidas y, sin duda, puede resultar revelador para muchas personas que lo lean. Hablamos con Francesc de todas estas cuestiones y de cómo se gestó el libro."Escuchar audio

Scopriamo insieme l'Ikigai.

Welcome to Part 2! Goals are only as good as the systems you create to support them. Today we're diving into the HOW.Don't have your workbook?

Start with a vision, test it in the dojo, and forge it in a studio where code becomes sculpture. That's the journey we explore with Tokyo-based French-Spanish artist and independent curator Baptiste Tavenir, whose life bridges Japanese martial arts, musicology, and 3D-printed fine art in ways that feel both unexpected and inevitable.We talk about the leap that changed everything: leaving a Paris lab for Budo University and discovering that discipline, patience, and community dynamics aren't just for the mat. Baptiste shares how years of training in tankendo, jukendo, and naginata sharpened his focus and taught him how groups actually work—lessons he carried into his creative practice. When tinnitus undermined his work with sound, he translated composition into space, building a unique visual language from Polaroids, carved plastics, and modular 3D-printed forms. He explains why plastic can be beautiful, how open-source culture shaped his “modules” collection, and why he set intentional limits to keep quality high while still inviting others to play.We also confront the “made by a machine” objection to 3D printing. Baptiste unpacks the design decisions hidden inside CAD, the handwork that follows printing, and the broader history of tools in art—from cameras to presses—that mediate but don't replace human intention. The thread running through everything is a grounded take on ikigai: the joy of making something uniquely yours, without compromising under pressure. His line lingers: fear is the enemy of ikigai.If you're curious about where craft meets code, how martial arts can rewire creative focus, and what it takes to defend a niche against doubt, this conversation will resonate.

Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Ikigai, this sleep hypnosis gently guides you back to the quiet place within you that remembers why you're here.If you've been feeling disconnected, uncertain of your direction, or carried along by daily responsibilities, this session invites you to soften, slow down, and listen inward. As your body relaxes and your mind drifts toward sleep, a deeper sense of meaning can surface — not through effort, but through stillness.This is not about searching for answers.It's about allowing what already lives inside you to speak.Best listened to at night, in bed, with the lights low and nothing left to do. Let the words wash over you. Your subconscious knows how to receive what it needs.Tonight, you rest.Tonight, you listen.Tonight, your Ikigai gently returns.

Smoke in your lungs, fire at your back, and a decision you can't postpone: run or turn around and help. That's where our conversation goes when a Marine walks us through an Osprey crash in Australia—alarms, hard banks, treetops, impact, then blackness split by orange flame. He unstraps, bolts, then sprints back to push guys farther from the heat, watching crew pull a barely conscious crew chief from the wreck. The pilots didn't make it. The adrenaline masked pain for hours; the paperwork later masked responsibility.To watch the full episode in studio, visit: https://youtu.be/Z03jag9JUtcBefore that day, he'd already been recalibrated by the world. MSG duty stationed him at embassies where suits, diplomacy, and three‑letter agencies share space and secrets. Tokyo set a new high bar for food quality, cleanliness, and civic discipline—Ikigai made visible in daily work. In Riyadh, he discovered how rules and reality diverge, where expats and elites create an underground nightlife, and how scarcity turns access into currency. Those scenes weren't about flexing; they were about understanding how networks, incentives, and culture really move people.Back in the fleet, Australia's ranges delivered heat, snakes, crocs, and the kind of miles that make you question why the range is always twenty clicks away. Then came the flight he couldn't shake. Afterward, flying became a ritual of white‑knuckled prayer. The VA process added its own turbulence. Meanwhile, travel kept tugging. Ancient stones in Egypt and temple quiet in Kyoto didn't just awe—they argued. Over time, he found his way back to faith, this time owned and practiced: Orthodox prayer morning and night and a willingness to speak plainly online about politics, war, and conscience because he's stood close to the consequences.If you're here for action, you'll get it. If you're here for meaning, stay to the end. Tap play, subscribe for part two, share with a friend who needs a dose of courage, and leave a review telling us which moment changed how you see service, risk, or faith.If you're here for action, it's here.

Ever study hard and still wonder why it feels empty? We dive into academic yarigai—the lived, situational meaning that makes learning feel worth doing—and map out nine practical factors that turn study from grind to growth. With Dr. Yu Kanazawa, associate professor at Osaka University, we explore how a refined approach, adapted from the Ikigai-9 scale, unites engagement, curiosity, flow, social contribution, and purpose into a single, usable framework.We walk through each factor—intrinsic fulfillment, curiosity and intellectual stimulation, personal growth, social contribution, engagement and flow, recognition and appreciation, overcoming challenges, real-world relevance, and a sense of purpose—and show how they interact. Rather than treating motivation as fuel you either have or lack, we focus on lived qualities you can cultivate from different starting points. Maybe you're not enjoying a subject yet, but you see its social value; maybe you love the topic but haven't tied it to real problems. Each factor is a gate into meaningful study, and you only need one to begin.Yu shares insights from his study with Japanese undergraduates and explains cultural nuances like utori—mental space that makes flow possible—and how cramming cultures can crowd out deep engagement. We also unpack why recognition is more than reward; it signals that your work matters to others, which stabilizes effort. For teachers, coaches, and learners, the nine-item scale becomes a reflective tool to diagnose strengths, spot thin areas, diversify sources of meaning, and reduce burnout. Language learning shines as a case study, linking curiosity, connection, and real-world use in a way that naturally builds yarigai.If you're ready to trade blunt motivation hacks for a humane, research-backed path to purposeful learning, this conversation offers a clear map you can use today. Subscribe, share with someone who needs a study reset, and leave a review telling us which “gate” you'll try first.

Use "no-brainer" offers to get in the room and learn from pros. (20:07–22:36) Let purpose lead the model. When work sits at the intersection of talent, joy, and need (ikigai), consistency becomes easy. (37:26–38:24) Grow through connection, not discounts. Reward referrers; keep pricing strong; become the story people share. (28:55–31:13) Main Topics, Timestamps, Explanations & Notable Quotes Bold reinvention & "no-brainer" apprenticeships — 20:07–22:36 What it means: Proximity compounds.

In this episode, he breaks down what Ikigai really means for builders and leaders: how to design your processes so they're not just efficient but enjoyable.
