    In this episode Amrit Bansal is joined by Parul Bansal, an artist and activist from Toronto, Canada, who uses storytelling and experience design to address issues of complex systems, social dynamics and individual perception. Parul experienced Alopecia through her life, and likens the resolution to this experience as Post-Traumatic Growth. Parul spends time thinking about what it means to be perceived in South Asian societies and cultures when you're a woman who doesn't (and may not be able to) conform to societal norms.


    Parul currently is running a project called "Ancestral Futures: Ancient Ideas to build our futures" which holds a focus on collecting pre-colonial South Asian ideologies, culture and histories in hopes to share knowledge and offer different ways of being. At time of recording, Parul has raised £1000 of a £9500 target for this project.

    (We'd really appreciate it if you could donate to her project, so please check it out!)

Sukhy shares her experience of life as a South Asian woman in the UK who suffered with domestic abuse and the dissolution of her marriage following a long separation. She draws on her experiences in order to highlight some of the issues that women face around coersion, coercive control, violence and stigma from family and wider South Asian community. As a result of her experience, she is a campaigner and gives voice to other women seeking support for domestic violence. Elements of this podcast can be distressing so take breaks if you need to and come back to it when you can.

    In today’s podcast, I’m speaking to the Founder and Organiser of Sikh Forgiveness, Sandy Kaur about Mental Health Ki Hundai Hai, her motivation in putting this guide together, what it means for people who have asked for Mental Health assistance, and the aims of Sikh Forgiveness to get this guide out to every Gurdwara in the UK at least. 


    Mental Health Ki Hundi Hai is a guide and an understanding of clinically diagnosed mental health disorders.

    Its for the everyday person and for professionals to get real about mental health. ⠀

    The narrative for mental health can change when we eliminate the fear of the words. Very often mental health is dulled down, misinterpreted, or judged. Now we want to make it a normalised conversation. It is not a taboo or a stigma, it is our health.⠀


    Being able to communicate these truths in translation is to break down those languages’ barriers far too many have experienced. ⠀

    This book contains various mental health conditions with English and Punjabi translations, to support everyone to understand what mental health is. 


    There are three versions of the book (an eBook, a black and white version and a full colour version) and you can find them on Amazon.

    Just as a content warning, there are some graphic descriptions of intestinal issues which Manny has shared with us, but they are needed in order to understand the context of the physical health issues he faced before turning it around and managing to find his way into competition power-lifting.
