I adore the show and never miss an episode.
The music plays too loudly while there is talking. It’s very distracting and makes listening difficult, especially for someone who is neurodivergent and has auditory processing issues. I hope the host sees this and makes an adjustment because I would like to keep listening, but I just can’t as it stands.
Honestly loving this series! Mehak and her guests have provided such great clarity on dating in 2025. Im a big fan. Continue to do great work! I’ll be listening
This is one of the realest podcasts I’ve ever listened to! It dives into issues that people are too often too scared to vocalize themselves, and I know it’ll continue to deliver. Can’t wait for the next episode!
Mehak’s podcast is a breath of fresh air—insightful, engaging, and beautifully authentic. Her conversations feel natural yet thought-provoking, making every episode a must-listen!
