Chai, Chat & Comeback

Hi Guys! I know most of us are probably still in quarantine and some days feel heavy, so I decided to keep it light today and talk about one of my favorite things in the whole wide world, Food!
I believe desi Food is just as exotic and enticing as desi people, but there are some silly stigmas that can keep non-desis from trying out our food. But you know what? I think now is a great time to try your hand in homemade desi food or order some pick up from a desi restaurant near you and expand your pallet!  
 
Hope you enjoy this short and sweet episode! ( pun intended )

Join me and my first guest ever, MADU IYER on Chai Chat with Mauri. We re discussing desi views on being 30 and unmarried. Madu Iyer is an established actress, model and... wait for it... computer engineer! She's a hustler and a great friend of mine but sometimes carrying all those titles isnt enough to please some desi folk unless you are married by a certain age... but don't fret..Madu's got some pointers!

Domestic violence in the desi community has always been a topic people tip toe'd around.But I decided to let you in one some of my load in regards to my past.
Because truth be told.. many of us share this burden together so why continue to suffer silently ?

Chai, Chat & Cheating

Mauri is a young first generation American Bangladeshi. Having moved from Jackson Heights, NY to Jersey City, NJ  and now a small town in Connecticut she has got alot to say.
Growing up as a "desi" we've learned to be loud and proud of our culture but to be quiet about the not so colorful subjects in our society. I want to challenge the status quo and spark conversations so that it not only raises awareness, but promotes action. So grab your cup of chai and join me while I spill the chai on being the " brown sheep" of the desi society and you may just see- that you are not alone but most importantly you too can raise your voice.
 Warning: Mauri may use a filter while making her chai, but its #nofilter when it comes to spilling it.
