What does it really feel like to be out of alignment, and why can letting go of something you love still bring grief?

In this personal and unfiltered reflection, I share the difference between being in and out of alignment through my own experience of letting go of the dance school I built and led for two decades.

It was not a failure. It was an identity, a community and a version of my life that I had outgrown. Releasing it meant facing a kind of grief that is rarely talked about.

In this episode, I explore:

The difference between being in and out of alignmentWhy leaving something you love can still feel like lossThe grief that comes with a change of identityWhat I understood afterwards, and how creativity helped me find clarity

If you are questioning a role, a career, a business or a version of yourself that no longer fits, I hope this reminds you that grief does not mean you made the wrong choice. Sometimes it simply means something mattered.

What lies beyond the thinking mind, and how might expanding our identity change what becomes possible?

In this episode of the Journey from Karma to Dharma™ Podcast, Nikita Thakrar is joined by Dr Carol Talbot, visionary speaker, author and architect of Multi-Dimensional Intelligence.

Carol brings wisdom, analogies, metaphors, humour and lived experience to a rich conversation exploring identity, intuition, consciousness and human potential.

Together, Nikita and Carol discuss what happens when we move beyond analysing life solely through the mind and begin listening to deeper forms of intelligence.

In this conversation, we explore:

• Moving beyond the limitations of the thinking mind

• The relationship between identity and consciousness

• Intuition and other ways of knowing

• Recognising the patterns that shape our experience

• Expanding our sense of who we are

• Living with greater awareness, authenticity and possibility

Journey with Nikita. Real conversations. Deeper truths. A fuller you.

Where is the journey from Karma to Dharma® actually taking us?

In this episode, I explore Karma as the familiar patterns, identities and conditioning that keep us repeating what we know, and Dharma as the conscious expression of who we truly are.

The destination is not perfection or one fixed version of purpose. It is alignment. It is feeling alive in your own life and allowing your deeper truth to shape the way you live, create and contribute.

At its deepest level, this journey is one of remembrance, bringing us back to ourselves and our connection with the Divine.

Perhaps purpose is not somewhere we finally arrive. Perhaps the destination is aliveness.
