What if you could break free from the confines of societal expectations and truly embrace who you are? Join me, Sunny Lamba, as I share my personal journey from the "good girl" who ticked all the boxes to someone who shed restrictive labels and found authentic self-love. In this episode, I am sharing 9 pieces of advice based on my life journey.

We celebrate South Asian women and the transformative power of unlearning unhelpful beliefs, letting go of age-related limitations, and pursuing passions that light up your soul.

I share advice like:
- You are more than the labels
- Age is just a number
- Unlearn what doesn't serve you
- Follow your gut feeling
and much more..

Together, we tackle the impact of societal and self-imposed labels that often stifle our potential. From battling the pressure of beauty standards to challenging the notion that certain achievements must be met by a certain age, I discuss how to rise above these constraints and redefine fulfillment on our own terms. Through anecdotes and rapid-fire advice, I encourage listeners to view age as just a number and explore new avenues of growth at any stage of life.

Ever found yourself constantly criticizing yourself in order to motivate yourself to get things done? You're not alone.  

I, Sunny Lamba, know this struggle all too well, especially as a South Asian woman conditioned by cultural expectations. Join me on "Flawthentic Me" as we unravel how these patterns of self-criticism sap our motivation, making us believe we're inherently flawed or lazy. Through my own experiences, we explore how easily we can slip into negative thinking but more importantly, how we can break free by understanding our brain's potential to rewire these patterns.

In this episode, we’ll explore:  
- How swapping self-loathing with neutral affirmations like "I am learning to be consistent" transforms our mindset and fuels long-term motivation.  
- The impact of societal conditioning and ancestral fears, and why these patterns no longer serve us today.  
- How small victories build confidence and foster a positive self-identity.  
- The importance of celebrating your accomplishments—no matter how small—and embracing your true, empowered self.

How much control do you truly have over your happiness in a world dominated by screens and instant gratification?  
Join me, Sunny Lamba, as I recount my personal battle with phone addiction and how it led me to uncover the profound effects of dopamine on our daily lives. Over the summer, while taking a break from podcasting and coaching, I fell into the trap of seeking constant pleasure through social media.

- We'll discuss practical steps, like keeping your phone out of the bedroom, to regain control and enhance overall well-being.
- We explore the damaging effects of comparison on self-worth, especially magnified by social media.
- We’ll tackle how endless scrolling numbs us and prevents real growth.
- You'll learn about real dopamine sources like regular exercise, meditation, and meaningful interactions.
- We emphasize the benefits of discipline and delayed gratification to nurture lasting happiness over fleeting pleasure.

Tune in for an insightful discussion on transitioning from fake to real dopamine and discovering genuine happiness.

Do you feel overwhelmed by constantly chasing the high standards and  perfection that you've been conditioned to achieve? 
In this first episode after a long break, I recount my personal journey of stepping away from my podcast for three and a half months to prioritize my mental well-being. Through reflections and journaling, I realized the pivotal importance of resetting to ensure my business stays enjoyable and sustainable. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that taking breaks is not a sign of weakness but a necessary step for nurturing our mental health.

We'll also shed light on the multifaceted roles women often juggle and the guilt tied to taking breaks. We'll discuss how societal pressures and learned behaviours fuel this guilt, underlining the need for rest and self-care. By recognizing life and business as cyclical—times for creation, nurturing, and enjoyment—we can better embrace proactive rest, distinguishing it from laziness. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation about seeking support, receiving love, and understanding that rest is an indispensable part of thriving.

What if you could rewire your brain to create positive change in your life. In this episode, I am sharing three key concepts for transformative  self coaching in any area of your life. We kick off with our first key concept that our thoughts fuel our emotions that further lead to our actions. We further discuss the second key concept that your thoughts are not real and they have no moral value. The third key concept is to feel your feelings before changing the original thought. 

This practice can lead to significant improvements in health, finances, career, and relationships. By understanding the societal and cultural conditioning that shapes our thoughts and feelings, we can release the narratives that hold us back. 
Learn practical exercises for identifying and processing your emotions, and challenge the age-old belief that hurt people must hurt others.
