In this episode, I join Natasha and Rebecca with the 'Where Do We Begin' podcast. Today, we’re unpacking the rise of "trad wife" culture — the aesthetic, the ideology, and the hidden consequences behind the viral vintage aprons and soft-filtered domestic bliss. We challenge the romanticization of financial dependence and ask: who really benefits when women opt out of earning power? From social media trends to systemic structures, we explore why true empowerment lies in choice and why financial freedom is one of the most powerful tools of modern feminism. If you’ve ever felt torn between soft life fantasies and your ambition, this one’s for you.

Pammy and I put on our detective hats, determining the identities of over 20 cyber bullies. In 2024, a platform was created to drag down punjabi influencers, entrepreneurs, and content creators. An absolutely revoluting hub spewed by hate. Some of these bullies dragged the way women look, their weight, their kids (literally bashing on how their toddlers look), making up lies and slut shaming successful women (because how could a woman possibly make more money than a man without selling her body right?)

We dive deep into the complexities of the Punjabi community's relationship with it's own people. The scrutiny is relentless—often crossing the line into harsh criticism and even hate. But why does this happen? Tune into this episode where we discuss how public figures are often judged, criticized, and consistently torn down by their own people.

Being mindful about your life choices is key to success in every aspect of life. When you date, you need to have set standards not based on shallow things like height or physical features that eventually fade with age. But based on values. For example, can this man build an empire with you? Can this man insure that your children are born into wealth? If you’re over the age of 24 you have no business dealing with men who aren’t winners! The days of “I like him because he’s cute and funny” are over. Generationally you need to build a partnership with a man who brings more to the table than just “I love you.” Listen to this episode if you want to attract a provider man into your life. If your man isn't making your life easier, sorry to say it, but he ain't the one.

• How To Attract a Provider Man
• Why You're Attracting All The Wrong Men
• How Your Childhood Impacts Your Dating Experiences

Ensuring that all eligible expenses are properly documented and claimed can help taxpayers like you maximize your tax refund or minimise your tax liability.

Have you ever stopped to think about how your childhood experiences can affect your romantic relationships? Did you know that our upbringing can affect the way we behave in adult relationships, including how we handle our finances? While your parents might not have known what an attachment style was, they shaped yours as a child. The fact is, we don’t just have relationships with people, we have relationships with money too! And how you feel and what you believe can have a big impact on whether you earn, save, invest, or even lose money. To understand how trauma impacts your money habits we need to understand the different attachment styles people develop when they’re young. Whether you're anxious, avoidant, disorganized or secure, your attachment style will often dictate how you relate to money. Is your attachment style making you rich or broke? There's only one way to find out, hit the 'play' button now, thank me later.

If you live in Metro Vancouver or the Greater Toronto area, there's a good chance that you've either been invited to an Indian wedding or attended one. They're often lavish, extravagant, week-long affairs with anywhere from 500 to 1,200 guests. An Indian wedding can last from three days to even a full week. There is a lot to love in an Indian wedding, but with all the extravagance and glamor, the cons of a big, fat Indian wedding are not always considered. But here’s the harsh truth: such weddings burn a hole in the family’s pocket and no matter how hard they try, keeping every guest happy is next to impossible. Throughout this episode, you’ll hear anonymous submissions from couples about their challenges and pain points. Today, we’re getting into the nitty gritty of indian weddings between the nosy relatives who always find a reason to be unhappy, the flaunt factor, the traditions and culture, the maddening preparations, pricey and unprofessional vendors, familial expectations, bachelorettes gone wrong, getting into debt, and finally teaching you how to set clear boundaries with your family— we’re covering it all. Today, I’m Unveiling South Asian Weddings for all that they are.
