  • Ep 24: Confidence, Culture, and Confrontation: Part 2
    Given that hustle culture is ever-present in today’s society, do you find you’re comparing yourself to others’ work habits? In one way or another, this applies to all of us; so how can we collectively work towards resolving this issue?
    In part two of this episode, we centre the focus on people-pleasing and how that can dominate all aspects of one’s life, from work, to school, and even friendships and relationships. We cover how to deal with confrontation as well as how you can help others who may be struggling.
    Listen to part one of this episode for more background info!

    • Ep 22: What's Happening in India? The Sikh Farmers' Protests
      Why have you not seen many pictures of the Sikh protests lately? Similarly to other conflicts foreign to North America, the Sikh farmers' protests had their moment on our Instagram stories before being taken out of the spotlight. The Indian government's control dangerously limits the amount of media coverage this issue receives. However, the Sikh community continues to fight for their land and rights as this 10-month crisis progresses.
      We are so very grateful to have had Arshpreet Rattan join this episode! As a Sikh, Arsh depicts how the Indian government is seizing control of its Sikh citizens and its impact on her family and community.
      The farmers' protests never ended. Sikhs continue to fight for the land that has belonged to them for generations.
      Do your part by reaching out to your Sikh friends and family, and educating yourself and others.

Listen in to hear about everything from fossil fuels to Tesla in the Stock Market.
      How have YOU contributed to the climate crisis? What are you doing to minimize your impact?
