Together, navigating the ups and downs of life! Utar Chadhav(ups and downs) is a mental health podcast. We aim to bring forward nuanced stories of mental health from the trenches in Nepal. We are setting out to rob social taboos of their power by gently turning over the rocks of common, authoritarian, black-and-white judgments to reveal the gray underbelly of lived experiences, so these judgments lose some of their power to cause mental distress.
