I’m glad I set the record straight with my parents early on and let them crash out sooner than later because I don’t have the capacity to be dealing with their crash out in my 30’s. 

Anyways, today it a chill one, yappa yappa yappa. identity is a weird, one minute I’m pretending to be the perfect Indian housewife in front of my relatives the other I’m shaking ass with my home girls and crushing on that fine girl with short hair. 

If you need something in the background and can relate with today’s title, I’m sure this, will be ya cup of chaa. 

Hope you enjoy!

EPISODE 14: DESI’S ON THE ✨SPECTRUM✨

On today’s episode I attempt to self-diagnose myself, talk about the importance of acknowledging neurodiversity, invalidate my brain ANDD try to figure out if I’m on the spectrum. 🙃

Imagine if our desi parents had access to the knowledge and education we have now, I wonder if they would’ve had an easier time understanding their brains. Being more aware of my parent’s mental health has helped give them more grace and allow for forgiveness. It only took 25 years :) 😗

I’m not a doctor, but I hope this episode inspires you to speak to your friends and family about mental health/ neurodiversity which hopefully results in you understanding each other better, and maybe you’ll figure if you’re on the ✨spectrum???✨

ENJOY!

Sat Sri Akal! On today’s episode I’ll be talking about the expectations of taking care of the elder generation and parents in the south Asian community. 

Firstly, has anyone realised I’ve uploaded a day later? No this wasn’t intentional and very unlike me, blame my WIFI :( To be honest it’s a happy accident to see what works better in terms of upload days. 

Being 25 has made me really appreciate the time I have with family and relatives because suddenly everyone is dying their grey hairs and adamant I need to start taking an arranged marriage seriously. Luckily for my parents they are less cunty and won their retirement ticket to being taken care of just in time. (Joke, I would have till taken care of them if they were cunty) 

As a desi woman, care giving has been deeply rooted in me so that’s what I talk about, do you feel the same, what do expectations look like for you when it comes to care giving and has your culture, relationship or faith played a role? 

Hope you enjoy!

It’s nice to finally see my parents enjoying life after waking up at silly hours of the morning! 

In todays episode I cover the conversation of brown people working overtime; never taking breaks, not receiving enough credit for their efforts, how different work life is in India and how I’ve truly enjoyed unemployment, what a blessing!!! ✨✨✨

Thank you for all the engagement, enjoy! ❤️✨

Yes, you did read that right.😅

Imagine being told you look fat before saying good morning in the house of GOD! Oh get a grip.😒

The thing is, I’m not really surprised but I also wonder if gossip culture is common in most places of worship? 🤨

Have a listen and let me know what you think, oki byeee! 😜

Enjoy ! ❤️

This episode is for anyone struggling with complicated family relationships, believe me I know how ugly it gets. 🥲

I thought the day would never come where I get to actually say that out loud… so me and my mum are now besties and we can finally sleep at night in peace. 🥹💤

After years of blocking, fighting, arguing and ghosting, my relationship with my mum has reached a point of acceptance, that we are no longer the people we once were and it’s comforting to know we both cared enough to move forward with forgiveness both to ourselves and each other. 🙏🏽

Your feelings of anger, resentment and frustration are valid and I’m not here to tell you to get on with your parents, do what feels right FOR YOU ! 🫵🏼

For all my friends, brothers and sisters, I hope this small win brings you a little comfort, and know that the younger Amma is smiling ear to ear 🩷🫰🏽😄

I’m back from traveling and reflecting on what feels like a never-ending checklist. AM I THE ONLY ONE FEELING THIS CHAOTIC??

Since 2024 has felt like Gotham City in real life—and let’s be honest, it’s a bit of a write-off—here are three lessons I’m taking into this year:

1️⃣ Listen to your intuition—it will guide you away from toxic situations.  

2️⃣ Time keeps ticking; don’t wait for the ‘perfect’ moment, live NOW! ⏳  

3️⃣ You can’t outrun your problems—they’ll catch up. Face them head-on!

What’s one lesson you’ve learned recently? 💬

ITS CHAA NOT CHAI FFS. I bet you’ve never tasted what real chaa tastes like, made on a chulla (open flame) with fresh cow’s milk off the cow on my left. Yeah, that’s a real village experience I had the other day. (see IG highlights for proof) ☕️ 🐄

When I tell you I’d love to live in India, I mean it. The village life is a simple life and on today’s episode I talk about just that. I share all the things I’ve learnt, how you must be grateful for what you have, and important tips for visiting the villages of Punjab. 🌾

If drinking chaa; learning about the lives of old people, visiting some of the world’s most beautiful temples, immersing yourself with history and culture, eating incredible Indian food and connecting with the earth sounds like your thing, tune in on today’s episode!!!

💖Produced in a day, all whist being sick best believe I love this podcast. Thank you as always for helping me decide what to talk about, I hope you enjoy what I create.

Much love, Amma!
