Little Fixes- Women's Mental Health & Personal Growth

Trigger warning- The episode contains references to suicide and self-harm, please use your discretion before listening.

This episode is more of a free flowing conversation around mental health in pop-culture. I am speaking with Tanmoy Goswami who is a user-survivor and the creator of Sanity, an independent mental health storytelling platform with a reader community spanning over 50 countries. He is a past fellow of the Reuters Institute, University of Oxford, and a LinkedIn Top Voice in Social Impact. He serves on lived experience panels and committees across the world, and is a jury member for the Project SIREN Awards that recognises journalistic excellence on the topic of suicide prevention.

It’s a nuanced discussion for inquisitive minds and for people looking to bring about even a tiny change when it comes to mental health. We’ll talk about the pros and cons of therapy-speak becoming a part of everyday language as in everyone throwing around terms like trauma, depression, OCD etc. I and Tanmoy also discuss trauma dumping, the importance of acknowledging lived experiences and other related topics that affect all of us.

Please bear in mind that neither me nor Tanmoy is a mental-health professional and we are simply sharing our experiences and learnings in an attempt to help.

I have been working from home since 2014 and have realised that it's both a boon and a bane. As a freelancer, I can decide my own schedule which gives me flexibility but this same ease becomes a problem too. I am sure most freelancers, especially women would agree with me. Even the people around us don’t take work from home as seriously especially if you are not working for a multinational. In homes where both husband and wife work from home, the wife is expected to take up more household responsibilities which is necessarily unpaid work. This episode is not a box of complaints but rather a discussion about work from home and how to make it fairer to women. My guest is Neha J Hiranandani.

Neha has spent the last two decades working on development issues, with a focus on gender equity in various organisations including the United Nations. Neha’s columns on social and economic issues have appeared in several prominent publications like Indian Express, Huffington Post, NDTV and Vogue. Her first book, Girl Power! Indian Women Who Broke the Rules, was a national bestseller and her latest book is The Padmas which has garnered a lot of attention and love as it features 50 men and women who have been awarded The Padma awards for their invaluable contribution.

Let’s talk about the pros and cons of working from home, self-care, guilt and so much more. Please help me bring more such conversations to you by sharing this episode with your friends- just copy the link and send over whatsapp, email or a simple text message.

In my 20s, I used to think that I would feel more settled once I am in my 30s but that didn’t happen. Yes, I am more experienced and wiser but have different challenges now. Join me as I talk about the challenges I am facing in this season of my life (I bet, you’ll relate). I am trying some new ideas to tackle the challenges and this episode has them as well. Let’s do life together :)
