Art of life

Redesign your life with peace,
purpose and joy.

My IKIGAI invites us to ask:

—How do I truly want to live?

—What brings me joy and meaning?

—How can I bring out my best self in service to others?

You’re not here to live on autopilot.
You’re here to live meaningfully—in alignment with who you truly are.

Through Ikigai coaching, I help you reconnect with your values, clarify your vision, and create a deeply fulfilling life you love—without the constant hustle.

 This is for you if...

You’re in a life transition—and you need clarity to see your next step with confidence.


You’ve done everything “right” on paper—but something still feels missing or misaligned.


You feel stuck in your current situation, and you know change is needed, but you don’t know where to begin.

“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success.

If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”

— Albert Schweitzer

Hi, I’m Minako Horaguchi—an educator, certified life coach, and NLP practitioner guiding people through Ikigai-based transformation.

I was born and raised in the peaceful countryside of Takayama, Japan, where simplicity, nature, and deep connection were part of everyday life. Those early values still shape my work and the way I see the world.

With over 20 years of experience in education, I’ve walked alongside individuals through growth and change. I’ve always asked:
"What allows each of us to truly flourish?"
That question led me to Ikigai—living in alignment with who you are.

Today, I help people redesign their lives with clarity, alignment, and intention, so they can live each day with more peace, purpose, and joy—without hustling through the busyness of life.

If you're navigating a transition, feeling stuck, or simply ready to reconnect with what matters most—I'm here to walk with you.

Because when you live in alignment with your Ikigai,
you don’t just do more—you live more.

Testimonial

It was great to meet with Minako regularly to tackle challenges in different parts of my life.There's a lot of self reflection in the coaching process. The sessions kept me accountable to the goals that i set. I learned how to clarify goals, examine obstacles, and focus on how to keep moving forward by deconstructing my blockers. I gained confidence and achieved many of my goals through coaching. “Stop worrying, start doing!”   _Designer and Mom
