  • S2, Ep 5: Love is Blind and Coping with Difficult Relatives

    I'm joined by supermum Rummy and we discuss our fascination with the Netflix show Love is Blind. Is it a welcome return to old school romance? or is it impossible to truly feel attracted to someone without seeing them?

    We also talk about how we deal with difficult people or relationships that we just can't get away from. What do you do if you don't get on with a relative or someone in your social circle? 

    As always we tell it like it is! Have a listen!

    This week we talk about our expectations of childbirth and what really happens! I share my birth stories and speak to new mum Rumana about her delivery.

  • S2, Ep 2: The weird and wonderful world of pregnancy

    In this episode, I explore the weird and wonderful world of pregnancy.

    Pregnancy rarely goes how you expect it to. From all-day morning sickness to vaginal varicose veins, mums-to-be have a lot to contend with. I speak to someone who experienced extreme sickness for the whole time she was pregnant, plus sisters from the (mother)hood share their experiences.

    There's also a special appearance from my Auntie-ji who busts some desi pregnancy myths...including whether or not eating lots of ghee makes your baby slip out during labour!

  • S2, Ep 1: The right time to have a baby

    To kick of series 2 of The Sisterhood of Mummyimperfect I discuss the right time to have a baby...is there such a thing? 

    Should women build a career for themselves before starting a family, or is it best to start having kids in your early twenties? Hear about my experience and what other mums have to say.

    Plus an impromptu guest appearance from my Auntie-ji!

  • Ep 18: Moving "Back Home"

    For decades it's been the norm to hear people in countries like India and Ghana talk about wanting to move the UK and live the dream! I am the child of people who actually lived that dream! But what about those who choose to move "back home" after being born and brought up in Britain?....yes these people do exist!

    In this special episode of The Sisterhood of MummyImperfect I get together with my sister Indira and my sister in law Akosua, both of whom have made the move back to the "motherland". 

    We discuss why they chose to make the move? what challenges they faced, and if they'll ever truly fit in there. Plus we talk about whether Instagram is bad for us, and why talking to strangers is good for us.

We talk reality TV and what kind of people go on these shows. And we debate whether or not there is any point being a vegetarian and eating "fake meat', and whether we could actually go meat-free. 

    Plus we share our life lessons for the week!

  • Ep 16: Cosmetic procedures, sexiness and covering up and the best age for creativity

    We discuss the first Muslim model to appear in Sports Illustrated and whether you can be sexy without showing any skin. We talk about how to draw the line between having cosmetic surgery and having a mental illness. And we share our opinions on the best age for creativity and our experiences of online shopping.
