A Desi Trail Mix: Unraveling India Through A Foreigner’s Eyes

This episode is full of real talk and practical advice for women in business. Ritika keeps it honest. The world is moving fast. AI is everywhere. But in the middle of all this change, she reminds us of one thing. Stay human. Yes, learning matters. Adapting matters. But empathy, connection, and being true to yourself matter more. It’s inspiring. It’s grounded. And it’s exactly the kind of reminder we all need right now. Creativity, empathy, and strong connections will always be our biggest strengths.
She talks about why women must learn to sell. Not just products, but ideas, and even themselves. Selling is not about pushing people. It is about showing value and being confident in what you bring. For many women, this is hard. We are often told to stay quiet or not attract attention. But in business, standing out is key.
Ritika opens up about the fear of failure and the pressure to be perfect. She gets it but she also flips the script. Mistakes are part of the process. Taking risks is how you grow. She encourages women to try, to fall, and to learn. And when it comes to AI, Ritika is clear. It’s not something to fear. It’s a smart tool. Use it to your advantage. Let it help you level up.
This is your sign to stop chasing perfection and start chasing progress.
Whether you are just starting or looking to level up your business, this episode will speak to you. Ritika’s message is clear. You can grow, change, and lead without losing who you are.

In this episode, we bust the myth that working from home is always smooth and productive. Yogita Mor, founder of Sabe Hub, shares how her own struggles led to the creation of one of Tricity’s most loved cafes and coworking spaces.

She talks about trying to work on a slow laptop in a noisy home. The result? Stress, burnout, and no real focus. That’s when Yogita knew something had to change. She imagined a place that feels warm and inspiring. A space that lifts your mood and helps you stay focused.

Sabe Hub blends style and function. It offers cozy furniture, healthy meals, and even fitness zones for quick recharges. Yogita believes wellness should be part of your workday. That is why the space also includes spots for meditation and Pilates.

She also talks about a deeper issue. Many workspaces and tools are still designed with men in mind. Yogita wanted to change that. Sabe Hub is a space built with women in mind without excluding anyone.

This episode is for anyone feeling stuck at home or searching for a better way to work. Yogita’s journey is a great reminder that the right space can spark big ideas.

This episode of PowerPod dives deep into the unfiltered, raw, and authentic world of Gen Z relationships, dating trends, new vocabulary, and reshaping how young people view love. From “cushioning” to “situationships”, the conversation is full of real stories, bold humour, and raw perspective on what it means to connect in today’s world. The panel features Aryan, Prachi, Tejaswini, Vaishali, and host Ayushi. The panel unpacks the unspoken and hushed truths of the modern dating culture. They discuss how terms like “benching” or “pocketing” are not just buzzwords but actually are reflections of the challenges of navigating commitment, communication, and self-worth in today’s digital generation. It is lighthearted, but at the same time, it is eye-opening.

Red flags take the center stage in the discussion, with the group exploring behaviour patterns like late-night texting, constant “roasting” disguised as affection, and partners who hide relationships under the radar. Yet it is not all warnings. The episode also highlights green flags such as communication, respect, pacing relationships authentically, and the importance of standing up for each other and next to each other. They talk about reflecting on how relationships are evolving in today’s time. But despite that evolution, emotional intelligence, honesty, and respect remain the core binding forces in any relationship. This episode is funny, refreshing, and relatable, especially for singles, couples, and anyone curious about the shifting dynamics of love.

Whether you are laughing at the absurdity of some dating terms or nodding along to the truths about red and green flags, you will leave with a better understanding of how today’s youth is redefining love and connection.

This episode of PowerPod dives into the most common debates in Gen Z dating and relationships. How do you categorise behaviour into red flag, green flag or in Tajaswini’s words ‘yellow flag’? The panel shares raw perspectives on the realities of modern love. All from texting an estranged lover from the past to defining a relationship too soon.
For some, texting an ex is a non-negotiable red flag. It feels like disrespect to the current partner and according to them, can rekindle the old fire. For others, it may not matter if the conversations are professional or rooted in the familiarity of a friendship. The discussion shows how different people set different boundaries in relationships. They also talk about why trust and maturity are key in deciding what works for a couple.
The episode also discusses early commitments, be it meeting friends and family after just a few dates or making the relationship official too quickly. While some of the panelists see this as a sign of seriousness, others feel it adds pressure. The group emphasizes that comfort, timing and mutual respect are more important than labels or expectations.
The panel also discusses social media boundaries and whether ‘love at first sight’ is real or just a Bollywood phenomenon. The conversation makes it clear that what may feel like romance to someone can feel like red flag behaviour to another. By sharing personal stories and opinions, the panel makes the conversation a blend of both entertainment and knowledge.
Just like previous episodes, this one too highlights the timeless truths of any relationship. Healthy relationships be it for Gen X, the millennials or Gen Z, all thrive on respect, trust and communication. Knowing how to set and navigate boundaries, when to compromise and how to stand for each other is what brings light to confusion. They help to turn attraction into something real and lasting.
If you are still curious about how Gen Z defines love, red flags and green flags in relationships, this episode will get you to reflect on your own experiences and expectations.
