Maryum Talks Podcast

2020 has been a tough tear for all of us in many ways... we need to realise the importance of mental health even more than ever and the help available in the online community for men and women. Today I talk to Sonam Patel (Founder of Mental heath support group @reroute_org) and Madhu Kapoor (Co- Founder of the sister group @mentalwealthorg) - we discuss the importance of mental health support groups platforms for the different generations as well as for men and women and why this is the best way to express yourself.

In this episode I talk to @pamammylifestyle - two daughters and mother team (Pam, Ammy and Kiran) who showcase the progression of women empowerment within the south asian culture in their content. We talk in detail about the difference in the younger generation and older generation within the south asian community as women and how we bridge that gap today through our voice and culture.

As we are currently hit by a global pandemic which we never expected to take the world by storm in 2020- here we are... self isolating and waiting until all this is over. (we hope) - In the comfort of my home I talk to Jameela (@jameelch ) about the impact of the current Coronavirus crisis which has changed 2020 forever and what we can do as individuals to take this opportunity to help ourselves and our community..
