You Can Have It All but Do You Even Know What ‘Your All’ is- Find Out with Krusha Sahjwani Malkani

You can have it all, just not all at the same time. A lot of us have heard this quote but who decides what does ‘all’ even mean? Not everybody wants the C-suite job or an eight figure business. Not every woman wants to have a partner and many of them don’t want kids. So even though we all have different versions of ‘all’, it’s difficult to let go of societal expectations, social media noise and our own conditioning. This messes up our mental health everyday. But there are ways to define what you want, what is your ‘all’ in the current phase of your life and how to go about it. You’ll discover everything in this episode with my multi-talented guest. Krusha Sahjwani Malkani is an ICF certified career and life coach for women helping them to find and achieve their version of having it all. She's also the Director of a SaaS company, a LinkedIn Top Voice, a published author of fiction and a mother. Let’s find out--what does having it all mean-why the expectation from women are higher-can we really have it all-how to find out what we wantBefore jumping into the episode, please follow Little Fixes on your podcast app and share it with a friend who might find it useful.

Scared of Selling? Listen to This to Shift Your Thinking about Sales ft. Ishita Khattar

I love doing this podcast but rarely talk about it when meeting people. I don’t want to sound salesy but the truth is that if we don’t talk about our work, people won’t get to know about it.

What It’s Like to Live with Clinical Depression and How Shinjini Defeated It

Trigger Warning- The episode contains references to depression and other mental health issues. Please use your discretion before listening.Saying that you are depressed might have become increasingly common now but not everyone feeling ‘depressed’ might have clinical depression while many dealing with it might have no idea about what they are going through. But the truth remains that it’s difficult to live with depression and it’ll help everyone if we understand it better. In this episode, I have brought a woman’s story of living with depression, how she found out that she was depressed and how she overcame it. According to the Mayo clinic website- “Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest. it affects how you feel, think and behave and can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems. You may have trouble doing normal day-to-day activities, and sometimes you may feel as if life isn't worth living.”I have Shinjini Amitabh Chawla with me who will share her experience with depression, her views on medication, therapy, dealing with a narcissist and more. This conversation will improve your understanding of this medical condition, will provide some helpful tools and you’ll also get an idea about how to help someone going through depression.Shinjini is the founder of Bigger Dreams Co. which is a Bullet journaling supplies company. Like me some of you might know her as The Delhi Bride from her blogging days.Please remember that neither I nor Shinjini is a mental health expert and we are just sharing our experiences in an attempt to help.

From Polio to Professional Success- Shilpa Mehta Jain’s Story is the Inspiration You Need

Most of us don’t feel beautiful enough, thin enough, curvy enough. We keep finding faults with our looks and keep comparing ourselves to the perfect images in the media. This tendency affects our mental health and can even have serious impacts in some cases. But what if someone has a condition which limits their mobility but they overcome it and do big things!We can do lots of things instead of being stuck on what we can’t change and yes this goes for everything. Shilpa Mehta Jain was diagnosed with 94% PPRP Post Polio Residual Paralysis in both the lower limbs with Scoliosis when she was just 2 months old but that hasn’t stopped her from achieving everything she aimed for. From swimming to driving, she does it independently and with dedication. She is also the CFO of Shantilal C Mehta. Shilpa and her husband have co-founded dJED Foundation, an NGO that focuses on the causes of Ecology, Education and Entrepreneurship. She has done so much despite suffering from a disability. When I asked her what term I should use when I talk about her condition, she said it doesn’t matter. Disabled, differently abled, specially abled or anything else, such labels don’t matter to her because she is more than that.

We mothers have a lot on our plates and are prone to feeling that we don’t give enough time to our kids. I work from home, do only what’s essential in terms of chores but still am unable to give just 30 minutes of undistracted time everyday to my daughter. Even if I am with her, I am constantly thinking about what needs to be done- work, podcast, chores. When I play with her, I feel that I don’t teach her and when I teach her, I feel that we could be having fun.I also feel dissatisfied by my husband’s contribution in parenting and feel that he can do more. And because I feel so much guilt, I am too lenient with Idhaya sometimes and too strict at others so we don’t have proper boundaries.Though some amount of guilt might be ok as it motivates us to do better but many of us have a lot of it. This might overwhelm us and feelings might come out in an unexpected way.In this episode, Clinical psychologist Prachi S Vaish will help us in managing this feeling. Prachi is a relationship and trauma therapist and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. Prachi will tell us about--mom-guilt and mom-shaming-how shaming ourselves affects our mental health-how to overcome the feelings of guilt and shame-how to create healthy boundaries with kids-how to have better understanding with our spouse in terms of parentingConnect with Prachi S.

Women’s Representation in Indian Ads- A Discussion Ft. Relina D’Silva, Upliance- 107

Recently, I was talking to a friend about the cringeworthy ads for men’s deos. Everyone knows that no one becomes a girl-magnet by wearing a deo but such ads are still common. Another type of cringeworthy ads are the ones where certain products like baby products, kitchen appliances etc. are marketed towards women only. I wanted to discuss this with an expert so I found someone who has been in the marketing industry since last 14 years.And being a feminist, I couldn’t wait till the 20th to release this interview cum discussion episode so this episode isn’t a solo even though it’s releasing on the 5th of April. We are going to talk about women’s representation in ads and how certain products are marketed only towards them. I have Relina D’silva who is the head of marketing at Up⤴️. Up⤴️sits at the intersection of smart connected devices and everyday living. They have recently launched an innovative AI based kitchen assistant DelishUp. If you have seen the marketing of kitchen appliances, you must have noticed that it’s mostly the woman cooking and the man is there to buy the appliance and to validate her work. Such ads don’t make sense in today’s time and it’s time for a change.Having been in marketing for so long, Relina has seen all of this closely and has tried to bring a change. In this episode, I and Relina are talking about--why are such archaic ads being made even today-how does women’ representation in media affects society and vice-versa-what we consumers can do to bring a changeFind Out More about Up⤴️ - https://www.upliance.ai/Up⤴️ on Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/upliance.ai/Shownotes- https://maitrisconfetti.com/107/Music Credit- Epidemic SoundConnect with @littlefixespodcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/littlefixespodcast/ Email me- [email protected] This podcast is only for educational and entertainment purposes.

Perimenopause- How to Support Your Body in Your 30s and 40s- Dr. Esha Chainani- 104

Today we are talking about our physical health and the topic is Perimenopause. Perimenopause- I heard the word for the first time on the Netflix show Workin’ Moms in 2022 at the age of 36 years. I googled it then and understood a bit.We might have heard and joked about mood swings, hot flashes and more but not many of us understand this phase of our lives. Perimenopause mostly starts in late 40s or early 50s but in some women it begins in late 30s too. Because most of us are in our 30s, I thought that it’s an essential Women’s Health topic to discuss on Little Fixes. Perimenopause can last for a few months or for a few years depending on your body. Due to a lot of hormonal changes, it’s essential that we learn about it and prepare our body to deal with this phase.To discuss Perimenopause, I have Dr. Esha Chainani with me. Dr. Esha Chainani is a Non-judgemental Gynaecologist making health, reproductive education and sex-ed easily accessible through her platform Premaa health. She practices at Surya hospital in Mumbai.She will tell us-What’s PerimenopauseDo we need to see a doctor for itHow to deal with changes in our bodyHow to support our body for our healthConnect with Dr. Esha Chainani- https://www.instagram.com/premaahealth/Shownotes- https://maitrisconfetti.com/104/Music Credit- Epidemic SoundConnect with @littlefixespodcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/littlefixespodcast/ Email me- [email protected] This podcast is only for educational and entertainment purposes.

When Anxiety Gets Out of Control- How Ritu Defeated Depersonalization Derealization Disorder- 102

Trigger Warning- Contains references to panic attacks and suicidal thoughts.On Little Fixes, we talk a lot about mental health. I’ve had many experts here and have shared my experience with anxiety and therapy in the past. In this episode, I’m talking to a person who dealt with a mental health issue very few of us know about.I am speaking with Captain Ritu Kumar Singh. She is an ex-Indian Army Officer, TEDx speaker and a women’s health and fitness coach specialising in pregnancy and post natal fitness. Ritu is the Founder of India’s first non-judgemental pregnancy and postpartum health platform ‘Fit Moms Fitter Homes’. She is an accomplished, inspiring woman and people look up to her. She is known as the brave girl but in 2022 she went through a life changing event. She experienced depersonalization derealization disorder (DDD or DPDR) even though everything in her life seemed to be going fine. It’s supposed to be a very rare condition. According to Mayo clinic- “Depersonalization-derealization disorder occurs when you persistently or repeatedly have the feeling that you're observing yourself from outside your body or you have a sense that things around you aren't real, or both. Feelings of depersonalization and derealization can be very disturbing and may feel like you're living in a dream.”Sounds scary, right? I can’t even imagine what a person experiencing DDD goes through. It’s a sensitive topic but I urge you to stay with us and understand that different types of mental health issues are real. This talk might also give you some tools to help yourself and others.Resources- Book- Depersonalization: How I Recovered and How You Can Too by Joseph Shay-  https://www.amazon.in/Depersonalization-How-Recovered-You-Can-ebook/dp/B01MT4RW33Connect with Ritu Kr.

Feminism in India- A Discussion with Chhavi Sharma, Founder of Girls Buzz- 92

Hello sassy naari, thank you for joining me today. As a girl born in a middle class Indian family, I was always told that I can't do certain things and that I shouldn't dream big. Anything which was unfamiliar for my parents, wasn't considered the right thing to do. Kuchh kiya bhi to we were reminded of how privileged we are. I grew up into a woman who was ok with a lot of things despite not liking them. Aisi bahot si aur bhi women hain humari country mein. Ye puri tarah se humare parents ki bhi galti nahi hai shayad. Unki upbringing aisi thi aur itna exposure bhi nahi tha uss time pe. When I heard about feminism many years ago, i dismissed it. I thought ki iss word ki kya zarurat hai, sabko pata hai ki women are equal to men and they should have the same rights. But thodi research ke baad pata chala ki feminism kya hai aur iski zarurat kyun hai. To chalo aj thodi baatein feminism ki karte hain. Mere saath hain Chhavi Sharma, the founder of Girls Buzz. With her platform, Chhavi is raising awareness about less talked topics related to women.Connect with Girls Buzz- https://www.instagram.com/girlsbuzzindia/Connect with @littlefixespodcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/littlefixespodcast/Little Fixes Podcast on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/littlefixespodcast/Shownotes- https://maitrisconfetti.com/feminism-in-india/Email me- [email protected] Credit- Epidemic SoundConnect with @littlefixespodcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/littlefixespodcast/ Email me- [email protected] This podcast is only for educational and entertainment purposes.

Most of us have lots of questions when someone we know gets divorced. We also tend to stereotype them as per our thinking but the reality can be very different.

Representation in Children's Literature- Gender, Race and More with Pratha Shetty- 62

Did you know that gender parity will not be achieved for another century? Can you believe that in children’s literature there are more books about trucks than about female protagonists? Even though Children’s Literature has a lot to offer now in terms of equal representation, there’s a long way to go. I discuss this, my experiences and some simple yet effective solutions with Pratha Shetty in this episode. Pratha is the author of a children's colouring book- When I Grow Up. In this book, kids can colour the pictures of notable women from around the world. This not only tells them about inspiring women but also sensitizes them towards different races.

Find Your Child’s Natural Genius and Nurture It with DMIT- 57

Getting your kid admitted in all the ‘trending’ classes is what a lot of parents do these days. They feel that their child has to be good at everything whether it’s studies, dance, sports or chess. Some other parents are unsure whether to get their child enrolled in any extracurricular activities at all. This is where DMIT (Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Test) or simply put Brain Mapping can help. DMIT is a psychometric analysis based on fingerprints but it has its roots in science and not astrology.The test reports help you and your child in understanding their strengths, weaknesses and overall personality which are vital in deciding their career path. Not just kids, DMIT helps adults in understanding themselves better and is even used by employers to make the best use of their employees’ skills.Some doctors are against DMIT and don’t believe its scientific connection.To understand this better, I speak to DMIT Consultant and Parent Educator Khushi Hinduja who explains the scientific facts behind DMIT, how it helps and how you can get it done. This episode will introduce you to a new concept and if you are already aware of DMIT, this episode will help you decide whether you want to get the analysis done for your kid. By the way, do you want to start a podcast or want to take your awesome podcast to the next level?

The Truth Behind Biodegradable Pads and How to Make Your Period Better and Sustainable- Smita Kulkarni, Stonesoup- 56

Many of us are aware that disposable pads generate waste that won’t be decomposed for hundreds of years. Even biodegradable disposable pads take at least two years to decompose which again is too long compared to the guidelines for degradable waste. Degradable waste has to decompose in 45-60 days to be used as compost.This shows that any kind of disposable pads aren’t good for the environment. Moreover, most pads contain extremely harmful chemicals that affect the women using them. Not to mention the discomfort of wearing pads. Enter menstrual cups and reusable cloth pads- two products that can make a massive difference to the amount of waste produced.In this episode, I speak to Smita Kulkarni, Co-Founder of Stonesoup, a brand that makes sustainable living easier. She talks about the lies that disposable pad brands tell us and why using cups is a better idea for your own body too. She also explains that cloth pads aren’t as much work to manage as we think. In-fact, once we get used to any of these sustainable options, we won’t go back to the discomfort of disposable facts. Tune in to understand why reusing is hygienic and how we can switch to a comfortable period. By the way, do you want to start a podcast or want to take your awesome podcast to the next level?

How We Unknowingly Teach Our Kids that Femininity is Lesser and How to Do Better- 52

It’s not just about the colours or the kind of toys a kid plays with; the tendency to belittle ‘womanly’ things is much more deep rooted. Even though the world’s most famous designers and chefs are men (this is the topic for another discussion), people still mock a boy who likes to cook, sew or wear makeup. When did cooking become girlish or even if it was, why is it not the right thing to do for a boy? People let their boys wear mom’s heels at home but not outside. It’s even more problematic than not letting them wear heels at all.Such notions are very common in India and even in more advanced societies like the United States of America. Don’t believe me? Listen to my talk with American Writer, Singer and Actor Craig Pomranz who shares how stereotypes are common everywhere in the world and what we can do to be more accepting.Craig is the author of Made By Raffi, a wonderful book for kids (and adults) which tells us that it’s ok to be different and it always pays to be you.There’s also a beautiful song waiting for you at the end. The song sung by Craig himself is called Different. Connect with @littlefixespodcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/littlefixespodcast/ Little Fixes Podcast on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/littlefixespodcast/ Connect with Craig Pomranz- https://twitter.com/MadeByRaffi Shownotes- https://maitrisconfetti.com/femininity-is-not-lesser/ Email me- [email protected] Music CreditIntro Underlay- Kevin MacleodOutro Underlay- Rafael KruxConnect with @littlefixespodcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/littlefixespodcast/ Email me- [email protected] This podcast is only for educational and entertainment purposes.

Going back to work after having a child is a tough decision in itself and we have talked about making the decision in Episode 26.
