i∙ki∙gai [eye-KEY-guy]: that which makes life most worth living

what we believe 
We all desire to have our lives ‘catch fire and burn blue’—to live a life that takes us to the edge of our horizons and enlarges us and others.  Yet we do not choose vocation; it chooses us.  Our task is to identify its signals—and develop the courage to step boldly toward it.

This is the work of i∙ki∙gai—a practical journey toward meaningful work and a spiritual passage into a ‘big-enough’ life. 


what we do
In the "What Should I Do with My Life?" workshop, we offer a  sanctuary of  time and attention to allow you to dig deeply and listen for the clues that most of us are otherwise too busy to hear or too distracted to honor.

Whereas a 'career’ coach often focuses on finding the closest match between you and currently-available work, i∙ki∙gai recognizes that an authentic calling is unique and involves venturing into uncharted territory. If the road ahead is well-trodden, it's probably not yours.
