#326: Why Your Ikigai Keeps Evolving Through Every Midlife Career and Life Transition

Have you been taught to think of a milestone birthday as the top of the mountain, when it may actually be the ground you build your next climb from? Turning 60 this weekend, Kavita shares one of the most personal episodes she has ever recorded. In it, she walks you through her own evolving ikigai, dimension by dimension, so you can see for yourself how a reason for being keeps unfolding at every stage of a midlife career and life transition. This is not a look back at what is finished. It is an honest, live look at what is still becoming, and a gentle invitation for you to do the same in your own life. **In this episode, you'll discover:** - Why milestone birthdays are not summits but foundations, and what that reframe changes about every transition - How the four ikigai overlaps of flow, mission, calling, and expression quietly reveal your reason for being when you name them honestly - What Kavita's own evolving ikigai has taught her about writing books, building community, and stepping into the next expansion of a purpose-driven life Press play to walk alongside Kavita through her own reason for being, and begin uncovering the one that is quietly waiting inside your own overlaps. Ready to see where your own reason for being is asking to be uncovered? Take the Ikigai Clarity Assessment to discover which of your four ikigai dimensions is thriving right now and which one has gone quiet, so you know exactly where to begin. If you are ready to talk through what your next chapter is asking of you, book a Complimentary Clarity Call with Kavita to map your own overlaps together.
