SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND

What is “Ikigai”?

Ikigai is a philosophy originating in Japan, and literally means “purpose of life”. Originally it was developed to help people find personal peace and balance. Today, it is often used to describe a concept of being or working that is rooted in the confluence (overlap) of four areas: two internal ones (What are you good at? and What do you love?) and two external ones (What does the world need? and What will people reward you for?)

What is Positive Intelligence? And how does it work?

Developed by Stanford professor and best-selling author Shirzad Chamine, the Positive Intelligence (PQ) approach is a revolutionary method that actually helps you rewire your brain to respond positively (in the sense of with empathy, curiosity, insight, clarity and focus) to any situation, rather than falling prey to the traditional, fear-based responses which have often become habitual, rather than rational.

How much does PPC cost?

We have decided on a tiered, multi-layered remuneration model that reflects and respects both our time and your benefit.

For the initial process of discovery - consisting of four 60-90 minute coaching sessions - we kindly request a symbolic remuneration of the time invested (400€, plus expenses, should any arise). Additionally, the StrengthsFinder analysis will cost you approximately €65, depending on your location.

For the second stage of enablement, consisting of a six-week app-supported programme (including weekly coaching sessions) we charge €1200.

For the ongoing part of the programme, that provides you a process and a structure to continue your newly learned habits and apply them to various aspects of your life, we charge €40/month (that’s just €1.15 a day - less than a cup of coffee - for consistent growth and development, plus access to a wide range of supportive resources, including personalised coaching*.

Further, should the Personal Purpose Coaching process have been beneficial to you, we would like to invite you to make a voluntary contribution that reflects the value you have gained from the process.

Subsequent coaching sessions will then be calculated separately.

We also recognise that not everyone needing or wanting coaching can always afford it right away, so we are open to adjusting the remuneration framework to your personal situation. Just talk with us!

* for an additional fee of €100/hour

Can PPC help me even though I have a good job?

Absolutely! That’s because Personal Purpose Coaching doesn’t focus on changing (only) the “what”, but also the “how”. You can still achieve great things in your current position, AND feel more satisfied because you are doing it the way that works best for you. This is the benefit of a Strengths-based approach and the fluid way of Ikigai - there is no one right answer. There are multitudes!
