Inner Space Podcast

Nisha, Inner Space

This podcast is for high-achieving, overly responsible women who hold everything together for everyone else, yet quietly second-guess themselves on the inside. Through grounded conversations and practical insights, therapist Nisha explores the patterns that keep capable women stuck in overthinking, people-pleasing, internal pressure and self-doubt. Across topics like family and cultural conditioning, nervous system regulation, boundaries, identity and visibility, each episode offers honest reflections and small shifts to help you rebuild self-trust and inner authority in work, business, relationships and everyday life. This podcast supports women to develop the confidence and clarity to: • make decisions without spiralling into overthinking • speak clearly without shrinking or rehearsing • set boundaries without guilt dominating their thinking • express opinions without fear of judgement • trust their instincts instead of constantly seeking reassurance Just thoughtful conversations and practical tools for women who are ready to trust themselves more and lead their lives with steadiness and self-authority. If you're a high-achieving woman who is capable on the outside but still finds herself second-guessing decisions, overthinking conversations or struggling to set boundaries, this is exactly the work I support women with.

    Truth, Marriage, Identity & What We’ve Been Taught to Believe

    This episode wasn’t planned. After Nisha & Charni finished recording the previous episode, around expression writing and books, we kept talking - and left the camera on. What followed was a completely unfiltered, unstructured and unexpectedly powerful conversation. No agenda. Just honesty.. It's become its own episode, and rightly so! We talk about the realities many women quietly navigate - marriage, identity and the slow loss of self. We question the narratives we’ve been handed, from societal expectations to what we consume online and why it's vital we question everything we read, see and hear on socials and the news.  This is the kind of conversation that doesn’t usually get shared. The kind that happens behind closed doors, when there’s no pressure to perform or package things neatly. And towards the end, something unexpected happens - a moment of reflection that turns the lens back onto me, my work and what it really means to hold space for others. If you’ve ever questioned the roles you’ve been given, the beliefs you’ve absorbed, or the version of yourself you’ve had to become - this one will land and change your perspective.  If you've already been through that, then you'll agree with a lot of what we say...

    How To Build The Life You Want Without Losing Family, Fear Or Guilt, ft Rupinder AWMB

    Today's episode is taken from a recent conversation I had with Rupinder from Asian Women Mean Business. We explore why so many South Asian women struggle with self-trust, guilt, people-pleasing and self-doubt and why becoming yourself can sometimes feel like risking the relationships that matter most. We discuss the hidden cost of living according to other people's expectations, the fear of disappointing family, and what it really takes to build a life that feels authentic without losing your sense of belonging. If you've ever felt torn between being yourself and keeping the peace, this conversation is for you.

    Words, Healing & Self-Expression for South Asian Women

    In this episode, Nisha is joined by author and poet, Charni Gill. Together, we explore what it really means to find your voice as a woman - especially when you’ve grown up without the space to be fully seen, heard or emotionally validated. This conversation goes beyond surface-level self-expression. We talk about the subtle ways we learn to perform instead of express, dilute our truth to feel safe, and carry the weight of being misunderstood when we finally do speak honestly. Charni shares how writing can become a powerful tool for self-expression and healing- not as something polished or performative, but as a raw, honest space to process emotions, validate your own experience, and reconnect with your inner voice. We also explore the role of storytelling, metaphors and poetry in making sense of complex emotions, as well as the importance of breaking cultural silences around topics many women were never encouraged to speak about. This is a grounded, honest conversation about identity, expression, and what it really looks like to come back to yourself - one word at a time. As promised here's the earlier episode I mentioned from Season 1 -  Fairytales, Myths + Stories that secretly shape us & our view of the world, as children.  Keep in touch with Nisha Work With Me: Request Your Consultation CallKeep in touch with Charni Instagram Website + Purchase her collection of works here

    Mental Health at Work: What Real Support Looks Like

    In this episode of the Inner Space podcast, Nisha is joined by Jo of Calerae to explore something that is often spoken about but rarely implemented properly in workplaces - mental health culture. We discuss what it actually means to support mental health in a corporate or organisational setting, whether that’s a small team or a large company, and why so many current approaches stop at surface-level “wellness initiatives” that don’t create real change. Mental health in the workplace is not about ticking a box once a year, or offering a wellbeing day here and there. It’s about how people are actually supported, seen, and held within the culture of the organisation every single day. We also look at why mental health at work is not just an employee issue - but a leadership and culture issue that needs to be addressed at the root. This conversation is for anyone in leadership, HR, or business ownership who knows that something needs to shift, but isn’t sure what that actually looks like in practice. Ways to Work With Us If you’re an employer or organisation looking to move beyond box-ticking approaches and genuinely implement healthier mental health practices in your workplace, you can get in touch with Nisha and Jo to explore how we can support you in building a more sustainable and conscious work culture.

    When Your Husband Puts His Mum Before You + What To Do Next

    In this episode, Nisha explore's a complex but often unspoken relational dynamic between women, their partners.... and their partners’ mothers. At the heart of this conversation is the concept of triangulation - where a man who has not fully individuated from his mother may still unconsciously seek her approval, validation or permission, even within his adult romantic relationships. This can create a subtle but powerful imbalance in the relationship system. It’s about understanding patterns of emotional loyalty, individuation and boundary formation - and how these dynamics can impact intimacy, trust and connection within marriage or long-term relationships. At its core, this conversation is about awareness - seeing patterns clearly so they can begin to be understood, addressed, and transformed. If this episode resonates, it may bring up reflection around boundaries, attachment patterns, and what secure partnership actually looks like in practice.

    People-Pleasing, Guilt & Self-Abandonment: Why You Keep Choosing Everyone But Yourself

    In this episode of the Inner Space podcast, Nisha is joined by Teena from Ungaslighted for a deeply honest conversation about self-abandonment and the subtle ways so many women lose connection with themselves in everyday life. We explore what it really looks like when you override your own needs—often not in obvious or dramatic ways, but in the small, repeated patterns of saying yes when you mean no, over-giving in relationships, and prioritising being liked over being honest. For many women, these patterns don’t come from nowhere. They are often shaped early on through conditioning around being “good,” “easy,” or “low maintenance,” where emotional expression or personal needs weren’t always given space or validation. This conversation goes beyond awareness - it speaks to the lived experience of women who look like they’re coping on the outside, but internally feel disconnected, exhausted, or out of alignment. Ways to Work With Me If this episode resonates and you’re noticing these patterns in your own life, I currently have a couple of spaces available for one-to-one work or in my Wellbeing Workshop. This is for women who feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, over-giving, or self-doubt, and want to rebuild a stronger sense of self-trust, boundaries, and internal authority.

    You’re Not Just Watching Bridgerton… You’re Recognising Yourself & Life In It

    Why are we drawn to certain people… and instantly put off by others? And what if those reactions aren’t random, but actually revealing something deeper about us? In today’s episode, we’re using the world of Bridgerton as a lens to explore identity, attraction, and the patterns we play out in relationships. Because we don’t just watch these characters… we recognise ourselves in them. In who we admire, who frustrates us and what we desire - and avoid! And often, those reactions are shaped by years of conditioning - cultural, societal, and relational, that we don’t always question. It’s a light, open conversation with Nisha, Gurkiran and Chanie but one that might just leave you seeing yourself a little more clearly. If you'd like to be part of conversations like this, join us here.

    Debunking Tarot & Oracle Cards: South Asians + Intuition

    In this episode of the Inner Space podcast, Nisha & Gurkiran of Chandraveda have a more open, honest and fun, conversation around tarot and oracle cards, especially through a South Asian lens.  For many of us, these tools have been misunderstood or even feared. We’ve been told they’re “bad,” “spooky,” or something to stay away from. But what if that’s not the full picture? In this episode, we explore how tarot and oracle cards can actually be used as tools for introspection, self-awareness, and connecting more deeply with your own intuition - not something external or to be feared. We also make this episode interactive by pulling cards live and talking through what comes up, offering real-time insight into how you can interpret and work with them in your own life. If you’ve ever been curious but unsure, or even hesitant, this episode will give you a more grounded, balanced perspective. Work With Me: Request Your Consultation Call
