1 33. Brown Girl Therapy: Sahaj Kaur Kohli's Mission to Bridge Mental Health and Cultural Identity 50:23
Sahaj Kaur Kohli is an award-winning therapist, mental health educator, and founder of Brown Girl Therapy, the first and largest mental health community for adult children of immigrants. You may know her as the advice columnist behind Ask Sahaj in The Washington Post, or as the author of the powerful book But What Will People Say. In this episode, Sahaj unpacks the deep intersection of mental health, cultural identity, gender, and generational trauma. We talk about the emotional toll of being raised in collectivist cultures, why traditional therapy often fails women of color, and how guilt, shame, and silence show up in our bodies. Sahaj also opens up about her new podcast, So We’ve Been Told, and why reclaiming language—and compassion—for ourselves is a radical act of healing.

Marcella Hill is a hormone educator, fearless truth-teller, and advocate for women waking up to their own power. You might know Marcella from her viral posts on perimenopause and hormonal health, but we’re going even deeper today. We’re talking about the healing potential of psychedelics, including mushrooms and MDMA. Yes, the taboo topics we were raised to fear, but that are now emerging as tools for radical self-discovery and emotional liberation, especially for women navigating midlife, religious deconstruction, and burnout. Marcella opens up with breathtaking honesty about her first guided psychedelic journey, how it cracked her wide open, and how it helped her rediscover her identity outside of Mormonism, outside of patriarchy, outside of anything that told her she was too much or not enough. This isn’t about drugs, it’s about healing, reframing, and reclaiming. It’s about what it means to be fully alive in your body again.

We're diving deep into revolutionizing women's healthcare with Dr. Somi Javaid, MD, and her sister and business partner, Komel Caruso, from HerMD. What sets HerMD apart is that it's healthcare powered by women. But what does that even mean? Consider this: Only 20% of OBGYNs are trained in menopause and sexual healthcare. Yet, menopause affects 51% of the population, and three in five menopausal women are negatively affected at work. Shockingly, a UK study found that almost 900,000 women left their jobs because of menopausal symptoms! Despite the challenges, there's hope. Women's health companies raised about $1.16 billion in 2022, a vast improvement over previous years. Among them is HerMD, with a total funding of nearly $30 million. They're part of a group of companies providing care options specifically for women at all stages of their lives, attracting venture capital for their innovative approaches. Dr. Javaid and Komel Caruso embody the revolution in women's health that we've been calling for. They're empowering women to take control of their health and backing it up with action.
