From her "polarizing" portrayal on Netflix's hit TV show Indian Matchmaking, Aparna Shewakramani became an overnight ambassador for women demanding to be heard—in their love lives, workplaces, and in every space they occupy. Aparna is releasing her first book, She's Unlikeable: And Other Lies That Bring Women Down, on March 22, 2022. Aparna was born in London, lived in Dubai as a child, and called Texas her home for over 25 years before recently moving to NYC. She is an avid traveler (over 43 countries and counting) and the co-founder and owner of the luxury travel company My Golden Balloon. 

Questions and topics we discuss in this episode include: 

  • The guilt that comes with giving up dating apps and how to cope
  • The impact of irresponsible media consumption 
  • How to date from a place of clarity and grounding
  • How to maintain hope in the world of dating
  • Aparna's hardest and easiest stories to tell in her new book 
  • What might still surprise you about Aparna beyond what you already know of her 
  • and more!
