  • Summary

  • In this deeply personal and heartfelt episode of The Best Couple Podcast, we explore the journey of breaking free from the toxic expectations of family, culture, and society. From growing up as a "good Indian son" and dealing with the blueprint imposed on us at birth, to feeling like the black sheep in a family that didn’t live by its own rules, we unpack the struggles of seeking validation, being a parentified child, and navigating generational trauma.

    We cover:

    • The exhaustion of always putting others first.
    • How boundaries and self-acceptance lead to freedom.
    • The struggles of being taken for granted and unappreciated.
    • Discovering your identity outside the roles assigned to you.
    • Mindfulness, self-love, and breaking the cycle of people-pleasing.
    • The pain of realizing family can be toxic, greedy, or neglectful.
    • Accepting yourself and finding worth beyond societal and family expectations.

    This episode is for anyone who has ever felt lost, unworthy, or misunderstood — and who’s ready to reclaim their identity. Join us as we share our experiences, insights, and lessons learned in the journey of letting go and choosing to live authentically.
