Alive and Kicking

from Ranting and Relieving Hosted by Shefali

Send us Fan Mail Season 2 opens with a deeply personal return as I reflect on loss, healing, and why this podcast exists—to remind those who are grieving that they are not alone. After a long pause shaped by a global pandemic and major life changes, I share what followed: moving to the US, starting over alone, pursuing my third master’s, and finally finding a career I love. I open up about dating again after nearly a decade, daring to love, and facing heartbreak once more. This season is about rebuilding from scratch, embracing growth, and owning both the scars and the strength that comes with it. Welcome back—let’s begin again.
