The Fierce Authenticity podcast is for visionary leaders, changemakers, and rebels who are here to eradicate supremacy culture and know the work starts from within. Hosted by Shirani M. Pathak, a former therapist turned spiritual healer, mentor, and coach, this show helps you dismantle the systems of oppression you've absorbed within yourself.
This podcast is your guide to the inner work that creates lasting external change. We believe that true liberation begins within your own body and mind. We explore topics like:
-
Healing systemic trauma and internalized oppression
-
Nervous system regulation and mindfulness
-
Purpose-driven leadership and conscious business
-
Finding your authentic voice and power
Join us as we challenge dominant systems and create a new world, one act of fierce authenticity at a time.

In today's guest interview, powerhouse Nisha Mody and I sit down as two South Asian American women with mics and visit so many healing places.
Nisha and I talked about colorism. We talked about oppression. We talked about the caste system and how that and colorism go together. We talked about anti-blackness. We talked about the way the South Asian community has been brought into the anti-blackness as a result of colonization ,and many many more powerful things.
One of the things that I loved most about our conversation, in addition to the total raw, authentic vulnerability and the fierce authenticity of our conversation, is at the very end, when we talked about what is it that gets in the way of most South Asians and the South Asian community speaking up about racism, anti-blackness and other social justice issues and creating a greater, more equitable environment.
We got curious about why that is?
Listen in to hear the answer. ;)
If you want to experience a shift in your perspective so that you can make a greater impact, this episode is for you!

Where's all my fellow control freaks, perfectionists, and people pleasers at?
In this week's episode we talk about how your desire to control exploits the very people that you love (or maybe even those that you don't), and how it is also exploitative to you.
The toxic patriarchy has its roots in contempt and trying to control others (or ourselves) to try and get others to do what we want or be who we want them to be (as well as trying to contort ourselves to being a certain way so that we will be loved and accepted) is exploitation of the other.
Tune in to this week's episode to learn more and what you can do when you find yourself falling into that pattern.

We're back with anew episode of the podcast and diving deep into the reasons around why we're terrified of judgment.
In this episode I share some of the research around belonging, and talk about how judgement, belonging, and the oppression work hand in hand to keep you in the status quo.
Enjoy!
