Asian Woman Festival Podcast

Smashing stereotypes and stigma to empower and celebrate South Asian women and underrepresented genders

Welcome to the Asian Woman Festival Podcast. We use our vibrant culture, conversation, and art to smash stereotypes and stigmas South Asian people are often judged by, so they can define their own version of personal success.

Each week we discuss a different topic and feature the diverse journeys of South Asians from across the world. Our guests pass on their knowledge and lived experience to the listeners, and nothing is off-limits.

So if you’re starved of the community you crave or want to be inspired by others, then this audio experience is for you, jam-packed full of empowering and talented South Asians!

Stay tuned in with the conversation @asianwomanfestival
