In this episode I sit down with author of the wildly popular book Well-Behaved Indian Women, Dr. Saumya Dave.
- We talk about the inspiration about her multi-generational novel.
- She puts on her psychiatrist hat to share her wisdom on how to stop seeking our parents approval
- She gives us a secret sneak peek inside the plot of her second novel and SO much move.
Saumya is humble, down-to-earth and you’ll quickly fall in love with her like I did.
