🍵✨ Ikigai Spotlight Series: Rica Takeuchi — now live ✨🍵
As we wrap up 2025, we’re honoured to close the year with a story that invites stillness, balance, and gentle reflection. 🧘🏻♀️
“中道 — choosing a way of living that is neither too much nor too little, but in harmony with this moment.”
This philosophy sits at the heart of Rica Takeuchi’s journey through tea, mindfulness, and Japanese cultural arts. 🍵✍🏻🤍
In our final Ikigai Spotlight of the year, Rica reflects on how her Ikigai has unfolded through self-acceptance, balance, and learning to live in tune with her inner rhythm — across Japan and beyond. 🍃
Her story feels like a quiet offering for this moment in time: a reminder that meaning often lives in the middle path — not pushing, not retreating, but choosing what feels right, right now. 🌿
