What’s truly possible if we remove the barriers of fear and self-doubt? If our character shapes our destiny, how do we hone our individuality into something aware, independent, and effective? What can we do to optimise our physical and mental performance? What role does faith play in designing a truly successful life? Most importantly, how do we get past the narratives society is hell bent on feeding us and seek out paths that lead straight to our desired destination, be it success, happiness, thriving relationships, or simply a balanced life
Experible podcast with its guest interviews and solo episodes answers all these questions and more. Join Krati Mehra for radically transparent, unapologetically vulnerable, no BS conversations that will challenge you to consider new perspectives, adopt new attitudes, explore unfamiliar ideas and avenues so you can finally, live a life that is not defined by old fears or dysfunctional narratives.
In the interview episodes, we dive deep into the stories and struggles of experts (entrepreneurs, scientists, authors, creators, and coaches) with strong convictions who, through their experiences, show us to what is truly possible and how we can turn our ambitions into reality. We also talk to subject experts with knowledge that can enhance our lives in unexpected ways.
In the solo episodes, Krati discusses concepts, tools, and practices relevant to developing a strong character, a healthy mindset, and the emotional weaponry that allows you to live by design and even on bad days, love what you see in the mirror.

Dr. Perpetua Neo: How to Overcome Toxic Codependency, Own Your Identity, & Demand Better in Life
Are you downplaying yourself without realising it? Do you struggle to set boundaries, assert your needs, or confidently own who you are?
In this powerful Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Perpetua Neo, we explore why self-confidence isn’t just about being bold—it’s about knowing who you are and standing in that truth. We unpack why many people, especially women, feel pressured to soften their presence and avoid being seen as ‘too much’—and how that impacts relationships, work, and self-worth.
This episode also dives into codependency—what it really looks like beyond the stereotypes, why even high-achievers can fall into codependent patterns, and how to break free from relationships where you feel like you’re giving too much.
If you’re ready to step into your power, reclaim your voice, and build relationships from a place of confidence—this episode is a must-listen.
