    Ep5: Beauty And Social Media

    For our very last episode of Season 1 of "The Friday Catchup", we're talking about the idea of beauty, particularly in today's climate where social media is a constant in nearly everyone's life. We chat about our own ideals of beauty growing up, how social media usage impacts it, instagram filters and lots more.
    We've been so grateful for you company all through these weeks and conversations. And will be back soon with another Season. Thank you for everything.

    In today's episode, we decided to have a cosy, late night hangout, talking about random things and somehow we ended up discussing relationships. It's a light, casual chat, more of a conversation starter, and we're opening up the floor for your relationship queries. We want to have more chats on this in detail, so let us know what you'd like to listen to :)

    Ep2: Hustle Culture and Women Doing It All

    In today's episode, we chat about the hustle culture that we all seem to be surrounded with. At home, at work, in life. We talk about why it's important to find meaning outside the hustle and how social media impacts our perception of "women doing it all".
    The comments are open on YouTube and Instagram, if you want to come join (link below). We'd love to know your favorite parts. And we truly hope this chat stays with you for a very long time.

    Ep1: Real Talk About Desi Women & Identity

    Ep1: Real Talk About Desi Women & Identity

    For our very first outing of "The Friday Catchup", we wanted to start at the very beginning. What is that 'something's missing' feeling? Many of us play "perfect" roles all through our lives - perfect daughter, perfect mother, perfect career woman - but while it can feel like we've got most things figured out, for many of us, something can feel "off". To put a spotlight on that, to cut through the noise that surrounds us, and to understand why I even need my own unique identity; this is a question that has been life changing for the both of us. We talk about identity loss, how sometimes we can feel like we "let go" of ourselves, societal expectations that we perform for, trailing spouses, homemakers, the influence of social media. AND SO MUCH MORE. We truly hope this chat stays with you for a very long time.

Cannot wait for more !!!!

I do not think I have ever been this excited for a talk show like EVER. I can already tell that these conversations are going to stay with me and change me for good. And I am so ready to learn everything these two amazing women have to offer. It's 1am here. I have three kids and work in the morning. But the introduction episode was so entertaining and exciting that me who is usually snoring at this time is wide awake. I cannot wait to see whatelse is in store for us.

Need to work on hmmmm

Over all it was great listening to lovely ladies. But plz stop saying hmmm, hmmm, hmmm when the other person is talking , not only did it sound unprofessional but also annoying at time since it was distracting! .
Saying yes or yeah still sounded better !

Personally I think you should not make any hmmm, yes or yeah sounds, when other person is talking, put yourself on mute. At least that’s how it is in other podcasts.

Fizza has such a sweet voice , it’s calming to listen to her. No wonder she is a coach, Sheezeen you did great too.
