It's not a shocker we probably didn't have THE conversation about becoming a woman with our parents as teenagers and it's also not a shocker that having children later on has become the new norm. Where does that leave us.......with a lot of unanswered questions in between along with stress and anxiety from the unknown! Today, I have Dr. Mahima Dhume, a Ob/Gyn resident in Texas to help figure out what are some of the things you should be paying attention to early on or where we can relax our shoulders a little bit. 

We discuss overall reproductive health, fertility, birth control, egg freezing, pregnancy and miscarriages. We hope that you gain some insight for your own path and feel supported if you have gone through any of these topics yourself. Enjoy!

In this episode I had the pleasure of sitting down with Mukti Patel, author of Forever Wala Love - a children's book that was released last month! "Forever Wala Love" is a Hindi phrase that roughly translates to "Love that lasts forever". Mukti talks about what drove her to write this book based on what she has seen with her eyes and her own relationship with her mother. 

This conversation will make your heart melt but also feel some kind of way about pushing yourself to go for the things you want to achieve!

Aishwarya is a serial Silicon Valley entrepreneur, TEDx and global speaker and investor who focuses on identifying tech and consumer trends early. After burning out and getting ill while building her last start up in Web3, Aishwarya turned inward to reconnect with herself and her indian roots. 

She found herself spending a few years digital nomading around the world, doing vipassana, and training herself in several esoteric modalities - yoga teacher , reiki, EFT tapping, and mindfullness/meditation techniques. After spending a decade in high intensity cities (Boston, NYC, SF) she realized when  you blend your personal passion with opportunity she could help herself and others live more intentionally. 

Her mission to help herself and others live more intentionally led to starting A Fresh Sip, as platform in the non-alcohlic beverage space, in an effort to bring more intentionality into drinking culture.

Navigating grief and emotions within a South Asian community can be challenging due to the strong cultural emphasis on maintaining a certain facade and upholding a "perfect family picture". Expressing vulnerability or seeking professional help for mental health issues is often stigmatized, making it difficult for us to openly share our pain and seek support. 

Parthi B. Patel joins me today on discussing what is relatively normal when trying to grieve. She talks about her own journey, the importance of support within your circle and even some helpful tips to start having these conversations with each other!

We live in a society where we are constantly exposed to the lives of others through social media, television, and other forms of communication. This exposure leads to social comparison as we measure our lives against the seemingly idealized or successful lives of others. However, being in different seasons is just how life unfolds and knowing what to do in each one is crucial to your own personal growth!

Let's talk about it together!!
