In today's episode I'll share how to harness your reason for being, your ikigai. 

I regularly hear that health and safety professionals feel stressed, anxious, frustrated and burned out because their job feels like such a grind.  Some feel unfulfilled, some just unsure about their career and job decisions. 

 

I find that when things aren't working as well as they could in my life, especially when there is high uncertainty, I can always rely on my core beliefs and values to guide me, which come together to form my collective reason for being.   

 

The Japanese word ikigai roughly translates to mean 'reason for being'.   I use this idea of ikigai when coaching people inside Safety on Tap Connected.  NOW you can head over to safetyontap.com/ep059 to download the full, free transcript of this episode PLUS a worksheet to help you take action from this episode.
