Episode 10: The One Where We Flip The Script: A Man's Journey Through Relocation And Self-Discovery

Hey, podcast family! Get ready for a rollercoaster of laughs, insights, and a whole lot of real talk in our upcoming episode as we sit down with a remarkable guest who's rewriting the rules of masculinity.

We share the male perspective on relocation, job hunting in Dubai, grappling with identity etc., all while the wife is the breadwinner. How does it feel to fight for the remote with the kids? 😅 😅 Who is the man/father/ husband..when the noise dies down and the veil is lifted?

Join us as we peel back the layers of traditional gender roles and explore the triumphs and pitfalls of a man daring to challenge societal expectations in his own self discovery journey, clawing through the darkness and peeking into the light! Mr. Smiles' story is not just about flipping the script; it's a celebration of vulnerability, resilience, and the courage to redefine what it means to be a partner in the 21st century.

Get ready to view life through your husband's, brother's and son's lens and maybe snort a little in the process with Smiles and Dimples 😅! You won't want to miss this one! 🎙️✨

This one is trully for the fellows!

E09: The One On The Great Identity Heist

Hey, our lovely BFF Community!

Ever tried explaining a gap in your resume with "I was discovering my true self on a beach in Mombasa ..Bali...Goa..Bondi"? Me neither! 😅 We should though right? lol .

In this enthralling episode, we explore the highs and lows of our relationships with work, as we peel back the layers of how we often fuse our identity with our job titles. Who are we outside our jobs? Are our jobs sucking the life out of us?

Not forgetting the juicy bits about rewards systems – because who doesn't love a good gold star? We'll discuss how these systems shape our behavior at work, validating the good or not soo good work practices.

As always, expect laughter, a few tears (mostly from that one time Miss Dimples was told she is not Talent lol!), and enough wisdom to set you off into the new week, as Smiles and Dimples share their personal stories!

Grab your favorite office mug (the one you stole from the communal kitchen – no judgment 😂!), find a cozy spot away from the prying eyes of your boss, and let's unravel the mysteries of identity at work together!

Because when life gives you lemons, turn them into a PowerPoint presentation and show your colleagues why lemons are the key to increased productivity! 📈

Yalla!!

Just how much do we owe our families, friends, and communities? Are we the architects of our own success or the stewards of collective prosperity?

And wait, is the grass really greener on the other side? For those that have spread their wings to the diaspora, are they better off or simply carrying the weight of expectations across borders?

It's a debate that sparks curiosity, and challenges preconceived notions, as your favorite BFFs share their own personal stories. We unravel the layers of obligation, entitlement, and try to answer the age old question - Can we truly uplift our communities without jeopardizing our own well-being?
