  • Cha and Chat Series Ep 7 - Abuse and South Asians (Part 2)
    2025/11/28

    Ep TW: Abuse, Rape, Suicide

    On average, one woman is killed by an abusive partner or ex every five days in England and Wales - but how many more are abused just before that point, and how many South Asians actually come forward to talk about it?


    In this episode, we talk to lawyer, @LegallyMaz, and Bal, a survivor of abuse who share their views on abuse within South Asian communities.

    We talk about the steps to seeking help, the importance of good representation, the results of abuse on children and the lasting impact, and end with some words of hope and encouragement going forward.

  • Cha and Chat Series Ep 3 - Becoming Brothers
    2025/10/24

    In this episode, I chat to Pav and Aman about how their friendship turned into a Brotherhood!


    We chat about how they got to know each other, their struggles making Punjabi friends, what brought them close together, and hear about some of their views on how other people can strengthen their friendships.


    People may not realise it, but having close friendships and a good social life is something that massively affects one's wellbeing, health, and even how long they live for. Unfortunately though, 1 in 3 people in the UK, do not have close friends and this is something we want to fix or help with!


    This follows on from one of my previous episodes talking about the Male Loneliness Epidemic and the negative effects of it on us.
