20 min - Coaching vs Therapy (2026)
The boundary between coaching and therapy has become impossibly blurred, particularly for independent artists navigating both creative ambition and psychological weight. Most distinctions you've heard collapse under scrutiny, revealing instead that what actually matters is scope, competence, purpose, and the specific geography in which support is being offered.
Here's my revised take in 2026

49 min - Self-Loathing: The Signal We Misread
Self-loathing is a harsh word to acknowledge, but what it points to is real.
And what it shows up as in our daily decisions are the buildings blocks of the pattern that threatens to pull us away from our own creative centre.

28 min - The Full Fee: On Worth, Receiving, and Babysitting
I was a toddler when two women at a doorstep decided what I was worth.
It took me decades to hear the lesson inside that deal.
This one is about value decided, not discovered.
About us waiting for circumstances to hand down a verdict that was never theirs to give.
And about the harder half: receiving.
Who taught you what you were worth? And have you been living by their estimate ever since?

22 min - From Rock Machine to Human Be w/ Uday Benegal
Uday Benegal is the founding vocalist of Indus Creed (formerly Rock Machine), the Bombay band that that arguably forced the rest of the world to acknowledge the existence of a culture that had always existed inside post-colonial India amidst the crossfire of an East and West not always as hypothetical as portrayed.
Rock Music.
Indus Creed navigated a global music industry with no label, no budget, and no precedent, and still managed to land an MTV Video Music Award at a time when public internet did not exist in India, and its passport offered access to a fraction of the countries whose culture flowed freely the other way; a one-way traffic that remains a controversial dynamic in the history of the world's largest democracy.
This conversation traces the journey from Bombay bus rides hoping to catch unannounced matinee shows of ‘Woodstock’, to the New York club scene eventually leading to a long creative silence, and Uday’s much awaited solo EP that finally broke it, in his Goa home this May.
Listen to the second half of the episode.

1 hr 2 min - "Limiting Beliefs" — A Limiting Belief?
Most creatives know that beliefs are holding them back.
Some can articulate them, analyse them, even replace them with supposedly empowering alternatives.
Yet the behaviour often remains unchanged, and the resistance stubbornly intact.
What comes up:
- Why "limiting belief" might be the inaccurate terminology
- What self-sabotage is actually trying to do
- The question I used to ask, and the one I ask now
- Why knowing the pattern doesn't always break it
- The beliefs you never chose
