This week, Anna, Sophia, and their brother Noah join me to discuss their fears.  Anna and Sophia are 12 year old twin sisters, and their adorable brother Noah is 10 years old.  They openly and honestly share their fears, and usual, we find some humor thanks to Anna's wonderful list of phobias.

Welcome!

Our podcast is meant to capture honest conversations between two generations of South Asian women. Our aunt and niece relationship is special because even though we may challenge each other’s beliefs, we always end up laughing at the end of it all, strengthening our bond. So join us, as we embark on this authentic and fun journey of reflection and exploration.

No topic is off-limits.
