SO much to say but so little time. We got vulnerable this time around, y’all! We talked about how we are the harshest critics of Sri Lankan/South Asian/Brown women. We give less grace to Sri Lankan/South Asian/Brown women vs other women, especially when it comes to wearing revealing clothing/being comfortable and confident in our bodies. Is it “culture”? Is it something else? Do we do it in the name of culture but it’s really something else? We had a few revelations while talking about this. Tune in and let us know your thoughts about this topic. 

 

The overall message this week is to be kind first to yourself and then to others. :)

Long-distance relationships aren’t any different from any other type of relationship in our opinion. We talked about some must-have qualities that help sustain an LDR as well as some tips on what might help make LDRs successful.

Hey, y’all! It’s been a minute. What better way to catch up than with a discussion about friendships? In this episode, we discussed friendships - specifically, why we sometimes outgrow friendships. Out of all the reasons we discussed, which one resonated with you the most?

In this ramble episode we got to talking about Monday blues and then how expensive it is to be women. Two random topics but that’s how ramble episodes go for us sometimes. Mondays have a bad rep thanks to it being the beginning of the work week for most folks. And being a woman these days is just expensive af. Give us a listen and share your thoughts. 

p.s.: We didn't have enough time to get into all the things that end up in the expense bucket - we'll go deeper on another episode.

It seemed that week after week every topic that we chose also revolved around another important topic - communication. So much can be said about communication, so, we thought we would switch it up and talk about why miscommunications happen. Of course, we couldn’t cover them all in a 30+ minute episode so let us know what other factors cause miscommunications.

Brace yourselves - we had to record today’s episode during a thunderstorm. While on vacation, we realized that having to justify sometimes the most mundane of life’s activities is a normal thing in our culture. So, we decided to talk about it. What have you had to justify or explain to someone even though you felt it wasn’t really needed?
