About this episode

Are Women Funnier Than Men? Stand-up comedian Prashasti Singh joins me for a raw, unfiltered conversation on Dream, Girl!

We dive deep into:

💭 Anxiety as high achievers – Why success doesn’t always quiet the self-doubt

🎤 Being your own boss as a creative – The real struggles of making it on your own

🗣️ Breaking the language barrier – Thriving when English isn’t your first language

💔 Loneliness in your 30s – Navigating singlehood when society expects otherwise

⏳ Marriage’s ‘expiration date’ for Desi women – Is the pressure real or self-imposed?

😂 Her comedy career & the big question: Are women actually funnier than men?

This episode is packed with honesty, humor, and hard-hitting truths. Whether you’re a creative, a single woman, or just someone figuring life out—this one’s for you.
