A significant portion of the discussion focuses on Ikigai, a Japanese concept meaning "reason for being." Kavita explains its four critical elements: passion, mission, vocation, and profession. By identifying the overlap among these elements, women can discover their true calling and live a more fulfilling and resilient life.π
