Monica Wadwa on Dating, Self-Worth & Emotional Responsibility

We dive into her book Queen Treatment, the moment she realized she was the common denominator in her relationships, and how that realization changed everything. Monica shares what inspired her to write the book and how our internal beliefs shape the relationships we attract. We talk about dating, self-worth, emotional responsibility, and why the love we attract is often a mirror of what’s going on inside us. From recognizing repeating patterns to understanding what healthy love actually looks like, this is an honest and thoughtful conversation about growth and choosing differently. *In this episode, we explore:* ● Why Queen Treatment is about empowerment, not “princess energy” ● How repeating relationship patterns begin internally ● The role of self-worth and emotional awareness in dating ● Taking responsibility without self-blame ● What it really means to choose healthier relationships If you’ve ever wondered why the same relationship patterns keep showing up, or what healthy love truly looks like, This episode is for you.

Episode 3 | Shift Happens by Ayesha Khan ft. Allaoua Gaham | Breath, Discipline & Presence

In this episode of Shift Happens, we slow things down and explore what truly shapes us as human beings - breath, awareness, purpose, discipline, and the choices we make when life puts us under pressure. I’m joined by Allaoua Gaham, a well-being expert who works closely with global CEOs, elite athletes, fighters, and leaders around the world. A certified yoga master, TEDx and Mindvalley speaker, and a name featured in Forbes, Men’s Health, and Arab News, Aloa brings a rare blend of physical training, breathwork, lived experience, and deep reflection. Our conversation begins with something simple yet powerful: breathing. Allaoua shares his philosophy that every inhale is an act of gratitude and every exhale is an opportunity to heal. We talk about how breath affects the body on a cellular level, the role of oxygen in clarity and healing, and why learning to breathe properly is foundational to living well. From there, the discussion moves into real-life pressure - the kind faced by fighters, athletes, CEOs, and anyone carrying responsibility. We talk about stress cycles, burnout, emotional resilience, and why discipline and recovery must coexist. Allaoua also opens up about his own health crisis, surrender, and how anticipation of the future often creates more anxiety than the present moment itself. We explore deeper themes such as: Emotional and mental health in high-performance lives Masculinity, identity, and purpose Fear versus panic - and learning how to respond instead of react Vulnerability in men and why it’s not weakness Communication, relationships, and knowing when silence is wiser than words Why comfort teaches us nothing - and growth requires experience This episode isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level motivation. It’s a thoughtful, honest exchange about learning through life, staying present, and building clarity - one breath at a time. If you’re someone navigating stress, relationships, purpose, or simply trying to live with more awareness, this conversation is for you. 🎧 Listen with presence 💬 Share your thoughts in the comments 🔔 Subscribe to Shift Happens by Aisha Khan for real conversations on growth, healing, and transformation

Episode 2 | Shift Happens by Ayesha Khan ft. Adil Hussain & Maria Aziz

In Episode 2 of Shift Happens, host Ayesha Khan creates a space for the conversations many of us were never taught how to have - honest, uncomfortable, and deeply necessary 🤍 Joined by Maria Aziz (Relationship & Trauma Healing Coach) and Adil Hussain (Founder of The Man Cave Project UAE), this episode explores how childhood, culture, and conditioning shape the adults we become - in our relationships, self-worth, careers, and emotional lives. Maria shares her personal healing journey, growing up in a South Asian household where love existed, but wasn’t always expressed in the ways she needed. From chasing approval and validation to unlearning people-pleasing and healing childhood wounds, she explains why everything starts with the relationship we have with ourselves 🪞✨ Adil brings a powerful male perspective, opening up about growing up in a culture where emotions were suppressed, vulnerability was discouraged, and “boys don’t cry” became a lifelong belief. He reflects on how this shaped his identity and why emotional intelligence - not emotional shutdown - is essential for healthy masculinity and strong relationships 💪🏽🧠 Together, they dive into: - How South Asian culture influences love, attachment & identity - The impact of “log kya kahenge” and guilt-based conditioning - Why emotional intelligence matters more than emotional expression - The shift between generations when it comes to love, marriage & choice - Why healing yourself isn’t selfish - it’s generational work This episode isn’t about blaming parents or culture - it’s about understanding, unlearning, and choosing differently. If you’ve ever felt misunderstood growing up, struggled in relationships, or found yourself repeating the same patterns, this conversation will hit home 🏠✨ 🎧 Shift Happens - and sometimes, it starts with one honest conversation.
