So the title gives it away right? Get ready to hear the word 'boundaries' a million times as we talk about the very important boundaries we need to have in our lives to show up as our best selves. It's a learning process which is never linear, we talk about a few things we need to work on and hope that our struggles with this topic is relatable to you and your journey as well!
We've all heard about body dysmorphia and to some degree we all have probably dealt with it or know someone that is hard on themselves because of how their body looks. In this episode, we talk about emotional dysmorphia, what it means to us, how our mind tricks us into being hard on ourselves and why we think we settle for things in life even when we know we can do better. We would love you feedback so please drop a comment with your thoughts! Appreciate you!
Wellll we all know about the cancelled culture right? If you don't, it's okay, that's why we're here! Just kidding, as you listen to this episode you will find out that Rita didn't know anything about it so either way, we gon learn tuhday! We talk about where this originated from, why it is toxic to society and much more, we would love to hear your feedback as well so please feel free to leave a comment, appreciate you!
Soooo, we talk about the topic everyone wonders about right? Ooh the scandal, we really get in to the nitty gritty, can we really be friends with an ex? Is it worth it to even try? Can we give it a chance with an ex after a few years? Well, we talk about all that and more! Please leave a comment with your thoughts, we would love to know your opinions as well!
In this episode, we learned about the different attachment styles we have as humans and also our own personal styles. We dove into what and why our attachment styles are the way they are, do we deal with the important people in our lives in a healthy manner? Since we are all about that uncomfortable thing called growth, we thought this was an important topic to discuss so we hope you can grow with us as well! Enjoy!
Well, we clearly love them deep questions if you didn't realize it yet lol. We really hope this makes you think of these questions to maybe distract you from things going on right now or just to have different conversations with your loved ones. ENJOY!
Well here we are, talking about our favorite subject, HA GET IT, subject like in school? YOU GET IT! We talk about everything we wish we learned earlier in life because as we all know there are certain real life hacks that would've really helped us as adults now. We hope you can relate and let us know your thoughts and ideas!
We dive into some deep questions about life, just human things you know? We talk about everything from little miracles to why we believe in conspiracies. Isn't it fun to talk and discuss about nothing sometimes? Well it is to us and we hope it is for you as well! Enjoy cuties :)
Well, the title is very obvious right? We talk about them fuck boys, "nice" guys and them emotionally unavailable boys we have come across. I think we all know that they exist, ofcourse there are girls that do the same thing and there are many actual good guys out there but this one is for the girls that can relate to the shittiness that we deal with/ allow when it comes to the unevolved boys so we hope you enjoy!
Sooo, what is the BBE you ask? It's all about that BIG BOOTY ENERGY and we talk about what that means to us and why it should be applied to everyone's life. We would love your feedback on this, let's get that BBE out there in the world and do whatever you need to in order to be confident af!!! ENJOY!
So the title basically says it all, we dive in to everything from Disney to famous celebrity deaths to simulations and also people that deserve to be in jail, lol you will get it when you listen. We hope you enjoy and that this instigates some mind triggering conversations! Appreciate you so much.
Sooo, in this episode we dive in to a concept called Love Languages which was introduced to the world by Gary Chapman. It is meant to help us try to figure out what you and your loved ones require in lurrrv. You know we live for this shit so we hope this encourages you to do this test with your loved ones for them thriving relationships in your lives! ENJOY!
Sooo, can we? We dive into some real life hypothetical situations and talk about what kind of friendships do work between a boy and a girl. This is just our take and we hope that this sparks some awkward conversations with you and your loved ones!
Well, in this episode we talk about quotes that touch the soul, atleast it did for us! Hopefully these help you through some tough times in life and also uplift you whenever you need it. Please enjoy and consume some of this soul food with us on our journey together!
So if the title didn't show you how confusing this podcast episode was for us as we learned about zodiac signs, astrology and compatibility according these signs, then you will understand while you listen for sure! Since us millennials really like to believe in astrology and it is seen all over social media, we thought it would be great to do some research and talk about everything we learned. We hope you have a good laugh with us and hopefully it helps in your understanding of this subject as well!
Sooo, 1+1=3 huh? We swear we're not stupid, it makes sense once you listen to it. It's a concept we heard about from the queen herself, Shan Boody, we wanted to talk about what we learned and it gets pretty intense. In this journey of figuring ourselves out, it's important to be upfront about yourself to yourself and we hope that you can relate to all the topic we covered. We would love to hear feedback on this and hopefully this can inspire good conversations with yourself and the people you love. ENJOY!
Sooo, we dive into figuring out how much Imposter Syndrome really affects our lives. We also apparently really didn't know what it meant lol what's new? Hope you are able to relate as we learn that we are usually way too hard on ourselves and don't celebrate ourselves enough. Thankyou for supporting us you cute thang!
Soooo in this episode we did the googles on important subjects like Soulmates and Twin Flames because apparently our definition of everything has been wrong for years. We talk about our personal experiences with these two types of spiritual connections and also will be launching an investigation on who comes up with this stuff, very soon. Anyways, ENJOY!
Well, look at us still talking about cheating. In this episode we talk more about the different forms of cheating, our personal journeys with it and of many hypotheticals that we all have thought about. We hope that episodes like these can spark up insightful conversations with your loved ones and yourself as well. Everyone deserves to be loved the right way, whatever the right way may mean to you, we hope you find it within yourself first and then with someone that deserves you. That got deep real quick, anyways ENJOY!
Hey! You! You're freaking awesome, okay? Okay. Thankyou for being here, in this episode we talk about the different types of cheating (shoutout to Google again). We apparently had a lot to talk about since it is very subjective, so we have two parts! Hope you enjoy this chat and learn with us as we discuss what we both think counts as cheating and what doesn't count, according to us. Noone asked for this but we did it anyways, ENJOY!
Sooo, we all go through conflicts in our lives right? In this episode, we learn more about the how we usually deal with tough conversations and situation in our lives through some research we did (Google is the besss). We're all just trying to be our best selves so we hope that through the information we share, we can all learn and grow to be the amazing humans we all are meant to be/already are! Thankyou for listening, we appreciate you.
Sooo in this episode we talk about all the awkwardness such as puberty, acne, periods and much more that we dealt with in our teenage years. Are we the only ones that feel like South Asian girls go through some next level puberty or what? Hope you can relate to the years we couldn't wait to have it all figured out when we grew up and cut to us still feeling that way. Enjoy!
In this episode, we learn so much more about the real life (we had to fact check because it's pretty unbelievable) stuff going on in the world. We didn't really need to know about this but now that we do, we think it's important for us to all be informed about very important topics, obviously. Buckle up, because it's about to get real weird, it is worth listening to, we promise! ENJOY!
Are you back? Woah, crazy. Thankyou for being here, you cool human! In this episode, we discuss our cringey, hilarious and very real experiences in the dating world. The struggle is so real, right? We hope that you can relate to some of these stories and also laugh at/with us as you get to know us better. Enjoy!
Friends are the family you get to choose, so ofcourse we had to talk about our personal experiences in different friendships. Learning about people who bring out the best and worst in you, and acknowledging when we are the problem is a part of growing up, we hope that you can relate to us as we talk about all this and more. ENJOY!
Let's talk about arranged marriages, shall we? They can be wonderful but also not so wonderful, that's everything in life isn't it? Please listen as we discuss and unravel what we have encountered in our personal lives! Hope you're entertained :)
So this one is a little embarrassing for us. Be amused by the stupidity we possess, we hope it's very entertaining. P.S. take a shot (your choice of beverage) every time we say SAUUUCYY. ENJOY!
Sooo Episode 3. This one is about life and career choices and not knowing what to do. A normal quarter life crisis problem ya know? We had a little bit of a pickle with audio in this one but bare with us, the content is worth it. P.S. just a little reminder you're pretty cool dude!
This one was a little bit of a toughy. Be prepared for the whole ass rollercoaster ride of being a brown girl/girl in general. Beware, we do get a little heated. You will hear our snippy side but honestly someone's gotta say it y'all. We talk about the struggle us brown girls go through and how it's not always easy (society sucks sometimes you know?) but we gotta get through it and be aware of our true potentials. Also, as usual thank you for your valuable time, we still don't understand how we're worthy of it. ENJOY!
We're just two 20 something South Asian girls who don’t know shit, but we're still trying and thriving. In this episode you get to know us from the beginning, beginning like poop stories and all to now, the reason we're doing this whole thing. Have a little laugh, even if it's at our expense, grab a coffee, and a big slice of cake (treat yo self) and get on this ride with us. See what we did there? Eh, eh? Ride cause we're on a car? Anyways, we appreciate you and hope you enjoy!
