"Log Kya Kahenge?" (What will people say/think, a question about others’ judgements) @lkkpodcast in which we will discuss issues surrounding mental health in underprivileged and underrepresented communities such as within South Asian culture.

Log Kya Kahenge Podcasts (What Will People Think/Say?)
Life experiences and growth. Conditional love and family expectations. South-Asian culture and American/Candian/Western upbringing and influences. Choosing your own path and facing hardships, broken relationships, and gaining a deeper understanding of self-worth in the process. We talk about all of the above and a lot more in introducing one of our newest LKK Log, the beautiful and strong, Natasha Khawja-McGowan (@purposeandchai), ❤️ a Pakistani-American/Canadian actress, blogger, and all-around positive influence promoting a love for life we are so inspired by. ❤️ Tune in this week to hear Natasha talk about her take on life, the difficulties she faced, and the beauty in finding the strength to keep going regardless of what’s thrown her way. Our favorite piece of wisdom Natasha shared with us? Feel the fear and do it anyway. ✨

Imagine telling your parents in 9th grade that you don’t want to go to school anymore and then you actually don’t go for the next two years. This one is long overdue but our next episode is a conversation with one of our bravest Log (people) who is an inspiration to say the least. When @aimen_malhi was talking to us about our first episode together, we had planned to talk about bullying in schools but when we sat down to chat, just the first ten minutes of listening to her story had us in awe.

The word ‘addiction’ holds very obvious connotations for many of us, but in Episode 13, we talk about the not-so-obvious addictions which our culture has a hard time understanding. Food addiction is a real thing but is passed off as “he/she eats too much”. Gossip is passed off as casual conversation but is detrimental to mental health when left unchecked. In this episode, ‘The “other” Addictions’, as we talk about the addictions South Asian people have a harder time acknowledging but are as dangerous as the obvious ones.

An entire episode dedicated to emotions, expression, healthy outlets and regulation strategies. We talk about how important it is to bring awareness to how we are feeling and how important it is to realize it is an integral part of who we are.
