What happens when cultural traditions collide with the whirlwind of modern dating?
Welcome to Love-ly, the podcast where our host (@whathemehak) explores the beautifully messy, deeply personal stories of love, identity, and connection.
From first and second-generation immigrants balancing family expectations to Gen Z navigating dating apps and “situationships,” Love-ly dives into the heart of what it means to love in today’s tech-driven world.
Every Friday, tune in for heartfelt conversations that remind us of one universal truth: no matter where you’re from or what your relationship status is, everyone has a lovely story worth telling.

Why I’m Not Rushing Love: The Power of the In-Between Era
In this week's episode, Mehak opens up about being in her “in-between era,” a space where she’s rediscovering herself. After a recent breakup, she reflects on emotional maturity, intuition, and the lessons that come with letting go. From unlearning survival habits to recognizing relationship patterns, Mehak shares what it means to stop romanticizing potential and start honoring her inner voice. She also gets candid about reentering the dating world — including her experience on the exclusive app Raya — and the performative side of modern dating. This episode is about slowing down, growing alone, and finding comfort in your own company before diving back into love.
