Praise for The Ikigai Way
"Do you find yourself wondering 'is that all there is' after hitting your big life goals? Are happiness and purpose still eluding you? Or, are you stuck in the grind of the 'shoulds' on your list wondering if you'll ever get to live life instead of life living you? David Marlow's The Ikigai Way is what you've been looking for: a step-by-step guide to the life you've always wanted answering the questions you never quite knew how to ask."
