Description
Should You Quit Your Day Job to Pursue Your Ikigai? World-renowned Francesc Miralles Reveals the Smartest Path to Fulfillment, in Part One of this live Interview with Kavita Ahuja!
If your heart sinks at the thought of Monday morning, world-renowned author Francesc Miralles - co-creator of the global phenomenon Ikigai - has a life-changing perspective you need today.
Mid-career pivots, toxic workplaces, and the fear of “purpose won’t pay the rent” stop far too many high-achievers from stepping into their next chapter. In this episode, you’ll hear Francesc’s candid stories - quitting a prestige publishing job, backpacking through India with nothing but a notebook, and uncovering the Okinawan secrets that launched the Ikigai movement - all recorded live beneath the Matterhorn, during a live interview at the Ikigai in Nature retreat organized by TravelGems.
In this episode you will discover:
- The signal that your current role has expired and discover the “Sunday-night gut check” Francesc uses to decide when to move on.
- How to build a runway, not a cliff: craft a practical plan that lets passion projects fund themselves before you leap.
- How to map your hidden strengths so you can pivot into work that lights you up—and still pays the bills.
Press play now and let Francesc Miralles show you exactly how to turn dread into durable Ikigai. And stay tuned for Part 2 of this incredible episode which will drop next week!
