Krati Mehra
Beyond the Goals is an attempt to help you design a life that goes beyond the conventional ideas of success and happiness. This podcast is for all those who have lost sight of what makes life truly meaningful. Or maybe you’re living your ideal life but find it drained of any real joy. If so, let me help you revel in all that life has to offer without pressing pause on your hustle. Through interviews with experts and solo episodes, we cover a wide range of topics that can help us create healthier relationships, a healthier lifestyle, a career that brings us true joy, and a life that satisfies us on every level. Together, we’ll learn how best to live a life of value and create an impact that speaks to our place in the world.
7 Steps To A Supportive & Rich Inner World
Our inner world creates our outer experience and when we face challenges, make difficult choices, our inner world keeps us anchored. In choosing to live an authentic, purpose oriented life, we invite judgement, uncertainty as we step away from what's known and familiar and when things don't go as planned, we need something to lean on and in such an event, our inner world becomes our #1 defence against external negativity and chaos. In this episode, we cover the 7 steps to creating a supportive, strong, and joyous inner world.
