How to contour your vision - and maybe even your religion- in order to achieve the life of your dreams. I start with sharing a recent tiff I had over instagram, where apparently I offended a lot of Muslim people - but in MY opinion, they were actually the ones being offensive. We dive into the process of figuring out how to find your vision, and what steps to take to define it further into a career or life purpose. I also share my own current struggles with my Faith - and Dr. Kholi shares her insight and advice, and I learn to see things from a new perspective on religion - hearing her thoughts as a Queer Christian woman.

If you want to continue your journey to defining your vision, you can find concrete steps to do that in this book I mentioned in the segment.

My guest today Priya Shah is one of those people you meet and are instantly inspired by. She is the Founder and Executive Director of the Simple Good which is a Non-Profit Organization whose mission is: to connect the meaning of ‘good’ from around the world to empower youth to bring positivity into communities through art and discussion. 

'Through Social-Emotional Learning and Mindfulness-based youth art programming and public art projects, we transcend the message that no matter where you go in the world, good means the same to all of us – and that is what connects us as human beings.' 

 On top of that Priya is an author, a Tedx speaker, Forbes 30 under 30 finalist, AND Model. I talk to Priya about how her life shaped her work, the challenges she has overcome, and how she finds her own simple good in the world.

First interview and video recording of the podcast! Video version will be available on Youtube soon! Apologies in advance for the technical difficulties - I *think* I've got things figured out now. Fingers crossed...

I'm Chatting with LA based Stand-up Comedian, Producer, Host of @minorityreportz Mona Shaikh! Her story is one of triumph and great courage, immigrating to Jersey City from Pakistan at age 15, living through a childhood filled with violence and managing to break out, all while forging her own unique path. She's not a fan of Monarchies or corrupt Mullah's, and we discuss it all in this episode of Conscious-ish the podcast.  Enjoy ~

Even though I am grateful, know I am very lucky to be able to stay home and quarantine, I can still complain a bit right? Sharing some of the good and bad of my new lifestyle, my views on the upcoming election sans Bernie, fasting in Ramadan, and something really interesting I learned about the Moon energy this time of the month. I hope you enjoy!

In this episode I go on a hell of a lot of tangents but eventually share some nuggets of wisdom that I've gleaned from my 9 years of parenting experience. Topics include: coronavirus, my favorite cereal, and I'm also singing a very random intro song that I have no good explanation for.
