    Domestic Violence I S1

    This episode dives into the harsh reality of domestic abuse, a crisis that continues to grow yet remains deeply hushed across communities. In many South Asian households, the fear of shame and social stigma keeps victims silent, allowing abuse to stay hidden behind closed doors. The conversation also explores a difficult truth, how cases are often dismissed as “domestic matters” and pushed away instead of being addressed with urgency. There are instances where responsibility is shifted elsewhere, leaving victims without the support they truly need when it matters most. Alongside this, the episode sheds light on the organisations working tirelessly to support women and their children, despite being severely underfunded. It’s an honest, uncomfortable but necessary discussion that forces us to question the systems around us and the role silence continues to play.

And why are the organisations trying to help women and their children still 6x less funded than others?   At what point does silence become part of the problem?   Full episode coming soon 🎙️ #Explore #FYP #RealTalk #DomesticAbuse #SpeakUp     Produced by Imagine X Global Remember to subscribe to the 'Lyca Radio UK' channel on YouTube for exclusive content.   Download the 'Lyca Radio' mobile app to listen to both radio stations.

    Creating Dream Celebrations | S1

    Weddings today are no longer just about two people coming together, they’ve turned into large-scale productions with big budgets, bigger expectations and guest lists that can go from 80 to 800 in no time.   In this episode, host Doni Brasco sits down with Dr. Diya Gokul, Sunny Sethi and Kajal to unpack what really goes into planning a modern wedding.   From Diya sharing how her mother wanted to invite 800 people, to Sunny revealing how wedding budgets can range anywhere between £50,000 to £500,000 for grand celebrations, this conversation dives deep into the realities behind the glamour. Kajal adds her perspective as a wedding host, talking about managing emotions, expectations and making sure everything comes together perfectly on the big day.   They also explore how social media has completely transformed weddings, where every detail feels like it has to be picture-perfect, pushing couples to go over budget and do something “different” just to stand out.   With so many opinions, pressures and trends, is the idea of a dream wedding getting lost? Or can couples still create a day that truly reflects them?   Watch till the end to hear what really matters once all the lights, décor and celebrations fade away.   Let us know in the comments, would you go big or keep it intimate for your wedding? 💬 Produced by Imagine X Global   Remember to subscribe to the 'Lyca Radio UK' channel on YouTube for exclusive con Download the 'Lyca Radio' mobile app to listen to both radio stations.
