Description

In this episode, Nimesh is joined by his friend, leadership coach and facilitator Neerja Bhatia, for a powerful conversation on self doubt, perception, and conscious leadership.

Neerja shares how her spiritual journey and corporate leadership path came together, revealing how easily our minds create stories that disconnect us from others. She and Nimesh explore what happens when we misread behaviour, how assumptions shape our reality, and why brave, clean questions can dissolve conflict instantly.

They discuss the growing identity shifts leaders are facing, the impact of AI and post-COVID uncertainty, and why emotional intelligence is truly spiritual work in the workplace. Neerja also recently delivered a TEDx talk, which is linked further below.

If you have ever told yourself it’s all my fault or worried someone was judging you, this episode will help you pause, soften, and see what else might be possible.
