So my dear friend is back after living in South Korea for about 3 years and I couldn't wait to get her on my podcast because she has the most outrageously funny and charismatic personality which has always inspired me. She is Donna Sherwani aka Donna Sparrow on socials. We studied together at post grad level and then she was taken away from me by her then boyfriend and now husband. When we recorded this episode she was more than 7 months into her pregnancy. To give you a gist of her life, Donna migrated to Australia from Kurdistan with her family when she was only 12 and the journey was no less than a hellhole. She goes on to to become this fearless and strong person despite all odds and who is now a lawyer. In this episode, we talk about everything. We discuss her migration journey, we explore how interracial relationships can have a positive and a bigger impact, we delve deeper into our journeys of living in Australia and we also talk about how we can overcome cultural identity barriers and own ourselves. We do get a little bit silly at times but it was only inevitable given that I had met her after such a long time. Hope you'll enjoy listening to it.  

On this episode of Let's be Rashional, I have a very special guest. He embodies such amazing qualities that I am keen to share him with my audience. My dear friend Zuhair Rehan is an independent singer and songwriter who already has three amazingly beautiful EPs under his name. They go by the titles Protege, Franklin Road and Stages. Not only that, one of his songs called Mannequin from the EP Protege has half a million listeners on Spotify and is my personal favourite track as well. Being work buddies, I don’t think I could have asked for a more inspiring and awesome human being who makes me want to push harder towards my dreams and goals. He is also one of the most calm, zen humble and honest person I have ever met. In this episode, Zu shares his journey of becoming an independent artist and how he uses his own share of struggles and experiences to help with his creativity and using it to further his dream of pursuing music as a career. This is also going to be a very musical one as I share some of his music throughout the episode.

In this episode of Let's be Rashional, I sit down with my dear friend Catalina Guerrero Torres who is pursuing a career as a self love coach and writer. I have known Catalina for over 2 years now. But since a year or so I have seen her plunge into her deep self and embark on this incredible journey of self discovery and self love. This journey has led her to find her purpose of serving others by helping them realise their immense potential by peeling off those layers of self-doubt that have been accumulating over the years. When I was catching up with her 4 months ago for just a complimentary coaching session she generously offered me, I had no idea that she would offer such great insights that would help me deconstruct the kerfuffle in my head and connect with myself in such a meaningful way. Since then, I've truly become a big fan of hers and I have so much respect and love for her.
