I sit down with Samina Rai to discuss therapy in south asian culture, breaking the trauma cycle and generational trauma. We discuss therapy in south asian desi cultures, whether seeking therapy is taboo, relationships and attachments, how patterns in our childhood keep us stuck, and how we tap into ourselves for self healing capacity as well as the difference between therapy and coaching. Samina discusses how patterns can be changed and are not stuck with you.

Back with a new season!! Traditionally, men were seen as being weak or unmanly in some way if they expressed themselves through crying,” So linking this back, When I see my male friends, colleagues, and family members suppressing their feelings, hiding tears and shutting off their emotions for the fear of being called “girly” I realize how flawed our cultural upbringing has been. In fact From a young age, boys are encouraged down this route by a culture and environment which cheers a laddish and overtly masculine mind frame.

This weeks podcast is a bit different. I know you’re usually used to a conversation between me and someone else or even a group of people, chatting about something or another, but you know me, I like to spice things up. So this week, I thought I’d take a break from the usual routine of that to bring you content that’s a little different. I present to you,  30 of the life lessons I have learnt from my 30 years of being alive.
