Pushin P! Pakistanis & Psychedelics

Hellooooo and welcome back to Bitch From Pakistan ! Today’s episode is a really, really special one. We’re diving into something that is often so taboo in our culture: psychedelics, trauma, and what it means to heal as Pakistani and Muslim women. My guest is the brilliant Hena Malik ...she studies religion and psychedelics, and trust me, she IS the niche and nuance to this conversation. Together, we’re unpacking how generational trauma shows up in our bodies, how plant medicine can open doors to healing, and the big question… how do you navigate psychedelics while still holding onto your…

    The South Asian Moment with DiscoSher Salman

    Helllooooo and welcome back to Bitch From Pakistan! On this episode, I have invited a close friend and bestie, Sherrrrrr Salman! There was no other perfect person to discuss the rise of the South Asian Moment.... Whether it's in fashion at SANYFW, or in music with Indowarehouse, or even Prada copying our chapals.....the desi flavor is in, and it's being packaged as a trend. Our haldi dood became a tumeric latte....our dupattas became Scandinavian scarves... Before they can take EVEN MORE than they already have, all the creativity within Desis has been bursting these last few years and we are…

    Desis 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽 Latinos/Hispanics

    Hey guys, welcome back to BFP season 2 and here we are with episode 2! On this episode, we collab cultures, Desis & Latinos/Hispanics. This duo has a lot in common, from our frijoles and daal, to our kheer and arroz con leche, large celebrations with large families, loud senses of humor and love of music, dance and telenovela drama. Our collabs go hard too...who doesn't love of chicken tikka taco? Clearly I have had this idea for a while...it started when I lived in Texas for a few years. During my time there, I realized that so many Desis lived there not only because of the love of heat,…

    2 Pakistani Women, 1 Generation Apart

    Hey guys, welcome back to a brand new season of Bitch from Pakistan! Thank you for staying tuned, and for continuing this journey with me, I'm excited to share what I've got in store! For the very first episode of the new season, I wanted to bring in someone who was a little older, wiser and who had seen and experienced the world . For a lot of us black sheep, we are the blind leading the blind haha, and I thought it would be really cool to hear from someone who had lived through it, and was on the other side of the struggle. Her being my family, made this even more special. She has always…

    Princesses of Persia

    Hey guys, welcome back to Bitch From Pakistan! On this episode, we welcome Kales, an Iranian-American girly who shared a passion in collaborating to talk about what has been going on in Iran and what it means to be a descendant living in the West. We have all seen or heard of what has been going on, but there is always more to the story and it's an important one to know. Heads up, we recorded this a few weeks back, and want to acknowledge that plenty has happened since then. A few of those things: several more people are being killed, several people are completing suicide due to the…

    50 Shades of Pakistani Rebels

    Hey guys, welcome back to BFP! Today's episode is special because its my first ever Pakistani speaker, Burhan! Burhan is a genre-defying human who is always pushing the boundaries, in science, social situations, fashion and mindsets. Twinning, we came to America at 18 to pursue our own respective journeys and ended up entering each others creative spheres. We are trying to create the representation we wish we had, and showing what humans of Pakistan across the world look like and are up against. Their bravery to be themselves caught my attention on social media and inspired me to start…

    Women's Day x Pakistan's Independence Day

    Hey guys! Welcome back to Bitch From Pakistan! So Pakistans 75th Independence Day was this past Sunday, on August 14th and it’s basically been celebrated since the Partition which is when India separated into the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and the Republic of India due to differing religious beliefs. The tensions between us and Indians still stands but that’s a topic for another day! Pakistan is such a beautiful country in terms of hospitality, food, culture, clothes that it’s hard to believe we love a country that hates its women so much! I wanted to shed some light on what independence…
