Something to Say

Women want to know! WHY ARE MEN...? Why are they the way they are? How can we understand them? Do they even understand themselves?  I had some burning questions and I had the ONLY man whose opinions I trust join me - my brother, Chetan! This episode also features answers from one of Single to Shaadi's male dating coaches, and a fellow podcaster, Utkarsh Shrivastava.  We talk loneliness, pacif...

If you have dated at all, you have most likely ended up in a "situationship" at some point. I know I did - and I actually loved it.  I don't know if it was because I was "the problem" or my particular situation was just very ideal but I learned a great deal about myself and what the final push was to figure out what it was I wanted out of a romantic partnership.  This epis...

Just 2 single gals in their mid 30s talking around the "grief" of the life we thought we'd have by now. Except we're not THAT sad about it! Vaidehi Patel (@lifeofvaidehi) is the host of "Chai and Chemistry" on the Single to Shaadi Podcast Network and we've podcasted together before. It's been a year since we have come to know about each other and we touch on...

This episode is for the ones who have a hard time believing.  It could be related to anything...love, career, sense of self. It's really easy to SAY you believe that you deserve the best.

Do you ever wish you had all the answers to what you needed to do for your life? Or maybe why you are the way you are? Over the years I've become a fan of astrology since it has helped me figure out what kinds of things I can expect for my life. Especially when I feel like I'm "doing all the right things" otherwise.  Recently I've discovered human Design and how that can a...

WE. LOVE. GROWTH.  I do not wish I was any younger than I am today because of the kinds of growth I have faced that makes me a better version of myself today, than I was yesterday.  In this episode I go into various areas of growth: friendships, family, and romantic. We even have a special gust chiming in to cover an element I don't have experience of! If you're feeling stuck in any sort...

We have THE Aparna Shewakramani on the pod! We definitely talk about Indian Matchmaking and how she is depicted as 'unlikable' for having standards and how having standards are not flaws. My conversation with her was absolutely wonderful and she is such a kind person who reads you in the best of ways. I admit I was a little nervous and she totally put me at ease.  I hope you enjoy our co...

We're starting off strong. Talking about Judgement.  As a South Asian, we affectionately call the other women our mom's generation, Aunty. They hold the trophy of being known to say the quiet judgements out loud.  However, the truth is we ALL judge. Each other, ourselves and everything around us. In this episode I talk about the ways I AM a judgey aunty, how I have handled judgement and...
