Let's have lunch

I’m having 50 honest lunch conversations with people I admire — about meaning, work, and what actually matters.

Hi, I'm Ken

Curiously exploring what's next...

I’m exploring what’s next in my life and career — but instead of sending CVs, I’m running an experiment: 50 Lunches.

I’m inviting 50 inspiring people to have meaningful conversations about their life choices, their work, and what gives it meaning.

This process has previously led to roles at
- Google (Head of startups)
- An investment firm in Stockholm
- Chief People Officer at Ultimate Beauty in Barcelona.

Re-inventing Ken

I've spent most of 2025 on a "Micro Retirment", travelling throuhg Europe in a camper van, and then visiting Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and the Phillipines. I've been reflecting about who I am, and how I want to spend the second part of my career.

I've documented it al through my YouTube channel Re-Inventing Ken.

Why

Purpose

I've come to belive my purpose is to use my natural abilities, and life experiences to contribute to something bigger than myself

IKIGAI

Ikigai is a Japanese framework, to help align passion, skill, contribution and work. I'll be sharing mine, during our 50 lunches.

Who should I invite for lunch?

I’d love to hear from you—whether it’s about lunch, work, or just a hello.
