I really enjoyed this piece , Suresh. I know that when I put down the scalpel and closed my surgical practice and wellness center , three years ago, to transform from Plastic Surgeon to SOUL surgeon, I was aligned with both my Ikigai and Swadharma.

This article offered me a beautiful breakdown of each of the points under each concept. Well done 👍🏻🥰

this is a brilliant Post. When i reflect back on what i followed as i left my corporate life to become a full time coach. I think i followed IKIGAI, ( I didn't know about it when i left my corporate career back then). But before i left my corporate career i did make an attempt to create awareness about coaching in my organization and was able to create an initiative which later on became a big hit within that org. However i left the org since my family was facing some health issues and even i was not happy with my role and was thinking that i wasn't doing justice. Net net, it feels that i did follow both these concepts to get to where i am today. Thank you for clearly defining swadharma and it will help me to help others when they are at cross roads
