In this episode, I take you back to my teenage years when I wished I could be white. As a young girl, I was caught up in the comparisons and the rejection of my true self, not seeing the bigger picture or the beauty of my cultural differences that were right in front of me.

I share the raw vulnerability of 15-year-old Flora, navigating the complexities of growing up brown in the early 90s. It was a time filled with confusion and longing, but also with moments that shaped my journey towards self-acceptance.

Tune in to hear about my journey from wishing to be someone else to celebrating and embracing my unique cultural heritage. I also reflect on how I now view my parents with empathy and appreciation for the rich cultural tapestry they passed down to me.

This is a big one, we talk about identity, growth, and the power of embracing and celebrating who you are.

Friends. This episode was like a beautiful therapy session for me, because even though we are all well aware that parenting is hard... there aren't many times you can freely speak about WHY it's hard.

Today, I get that opportunity, as Mansi Parikh,  a certified conscious parenting coach, joins me on the Beyond Podcast!

We dive in about what it means to be a conscious parent and the bad rep that any form of "gentle" parenting receives these days.

But even cooler - SO many of these parenting techniques apply to ourselves - tricks that I share with my coaching clients DAILY. But, when instilled in our children in their formative years, they will be set up for a life of contentment, boundaries, and happiness.

There are so many gems dropped in this session and just another healthy reminder that Life is Hard. PARENTING is hard. We need to learn from each other and lean on each other to make sure the next generations are filled with GOOD, happy humans.

Beyond Listeners. Join me as I share a glimpse to the beginnings of one of the toughest chapters of my life - our infertility journey. From the highs to the lows, the heartaches to the breakthroughs, I'm laying it all out there. Coming to terms with the decision to be 'one and done' wasn't easy. It was a journey filled with soul-searching, tears, and tough choices. But through it all, I knew that I had so much more to give to myself, Sanjay, and our Gia. I'm sharing this deeply personal story with you all because, because as I have said before, life is hard, and you don't have to do it alone. Life throws curveballs and it's okay to dream a new dream.
