TRIGGER WARNING: Please be aware that this episode contains mentions of suicidal thoughts. "You're too dark." "You're too light." "She must be sick." "She's 'healthy.'" The beauty standards in South Asian culture are staggering. We talk to Nehal Mehra, self-love influencer, makeup artist, and all-around brilliant Indian woman, about the bogus standards we as desi women have been held to, how society needs to change and how we can transform our lives by adjusting the way we speak to ourselves. --- This episode is sponsored by 路 Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thewokedesi/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thewokedesi/supportAnnika's book, Sugar, Spice, and Can't Play Nice, is available at all bookstores including Barnes and Noble, Bookshop, and Amazon!
