The Controversial Widow - journey with grief, celebrating life & helping others (ft. Shalini Bhalla-Lucas)

The Caffeinated Brown Girl Podcast

TW: Death, Suicide, Alcoholism, Cancer, Grief Love, loss, death, grief - things that all of us go through at some point in life. But these are also things we rarely talk about, especially in South Asian communities. In today's episode, I had the honor of talking to Shalini Bhalla-Lucas, an author, entrepreneur, motivational speaker and the founder of Just Jhoom! Shalini shares her love story with her husband Jeremy, her husband's death, grieving and how she starting living life again. We also talk about stereotypes for widows in South Asian communities, Shalini's Instagram live series, "The Controversial Widow" & her work that helps people through dance, mindfulness and meditation.
