In this episode of the GCUC Podcast, we chat with Nyambura Gichohi, the dynamic CEO and co-founder of Ikigai, a coworking brand that prioritizes wellness and sustainability in Kenya. Nyambura shares the inspiring journey of how she and her sister combined their backgrounds in real estate and conservation to build Ikigai into one of the most unique coworking spaces in the world. With lush, natural settings and a focus on community, Ikigai has truly embraced the balance between productivity and well-being.
Nyambura also dives into the challenges of running a business while balancing family life, including being a mom of two. She talks about the importance of self-care, how Ikigai fosters collaboration through intentional design, and the growing coworking scene in Nairobi. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, coworking operator, or simply passionate about creating meaningful workspaces, this episode offers valuable insights into how to create spaces that foster wellness, community, and sustainability.
