00:009 p.m. news dekhna. Negative. Negative. So negative. Toxic is the word. Toxic.

00:09Mere mom ki saath yeh hua pichle saal. She was diagnosed with first stage cancer.

00:14Aur yeh isliye possible hua. Today she is cancer free. Kyunki unhone early detection par vaya.

00:20Because of self-examination and just that understanding of your body and not feeling afraid.

00:25And I think if you are good at your job, you have confidence. I think one shouldn't have any fear.

00:31You can go out there and get it and just ask the question. At least you know that's how I am.

00:39But first things first, lockdown mein tum kaise busy rahi? Everyone is going through a lot of mood swings.

00:44So how did you keep yourself like you know happy or cheer you up?

00:48Peebo I am telling you, exercise and meditation helps like it's magic.

00:54Because that is also something that really regulates your moods and your hormones and whatever it is that you are dealing with.

01:01I think so many fears that we have had to deal with and that of course brings about all kinds of moods.

01:07I would definitely say for me what has definitely worked is meditation and exercise.

01:13So thoda sa gear badalte hain aap ek game khel kar.

01:15Hum sab jaante hain ki is saal do buzz words. The positive and the negative.

01:21You know obviously ask you some questions and you tell me if it's positive or negative.

01:25So working from home? Positive. Oh positive.

01:29You know so many people who have been working with shorts below and like a suit jacket on top.

01:34You are sitting in the comfort of your home, you are eating the food you like.

01:39So home, fully positive. Fully, I think we are enjoying that.

01:43Should not be complaining. Not at all.

01:469pm news dekhna. Negative. Negative. So negative.

01:52Toxic is the word. That should also be a part of this, toxic.

01:57Social media comments padna. Depends.

02:01Main kuch logon ke comments padti hoon aur mujhe phairat hoti hoon aur main dar jaati hoon.

02:05Main suchhti hoon kaise handle karte hain. Swara and all, I am like I'd have nightmares for days

02:10if I had to be Swara and read those comments. And some days even I get it.

02:15So it's not like any of us escape the rocks. No, that no.

02:19So I think it will be both positive and negative. Positive and negative.

02:23The concept of binge watching. It depends on what you are watching.

02:29But positive. I think it's very cool to be able to binge watch.

02:33Yeah, and just like, you know, have it. Have you watched anything recently?

02:38I have fully binged some shows and enjoyed.

02:42Schitt's Creek, have you seen it? Yeah, binge. Everyone's just binge watched that.

02:46It's the best. Too fun. Absolutely.

02:49So now Diya, India mein kaafi women hesitate karti hai to get a pap smear done or a mammogram.

02:57So I want you to talk about your experience with these tests to tell our listeners

03:02that you know how I think it's so important to get them done after a certain age.

03:06Well, gynecologists recommend ki 30 saal ki umar ke baad har aurat ko har saal pap smear karwana chahiye

03:14aur mammogram karwana chahiye. Lekin uske alawa self examination jo hota hai.

03:19These are very important to do kyunki early detection is very very good.

03:24Mere mom ki saath ye hua pichle saal. She was diagnosed with first stage cancer.

03:30And because of early detection, we could, you know, take her to the hospital

03:35and they conducted a mastectomy on her.

03:39And thankfully, touchwood, she didn't even have to go through chemo or radiation.

03:44So, and she's cancer free. So, I think this is the best example jo mein aapko de sakti thi.

03:50Jo apne ghar pe experience kiya hai maine. Aur yeh isliye possible hua, today she's cancer free

03:56kyunki unhone early detection parwaya because of self examination.

04:00And just that understanding of your body and not feeling afraid.

04:04I think ek aur cheez jo, you know, log bahot darte hai which I feel is medical donations.

04:09You know, chahe wo blood donations ho ya stem cell donation.

04:13Hum logon ko kaise encourage kar sakte hain, you know, to do this more.

04:17It's the easiest way to make a difference.

04:20Humare jab jitne bhi log hain humare aas paas, jo hum sab ke beech mein,

04:25kisi bhi, matlab, health crisis se guzar chuke hain,

04:29wo jaanenge ki blood transfusions kitne mushkil se hote hain.

04:33And it's not easy to get access.

04:36This is actually something that we should all just make a practice.

04:39Absolutely.

04:41Leah, tum ek actor bhi ho, ek environmentalist bhi.

04:44You're someone who wants it all.

04:46Because I know that you, like, you know, you're doing so many things at once.

04:49I think as women, Bebo, you'll agree that we are essentially multitaskers.

04:55I think mere liye bahot kuch possible isliye hai kyunki main apne kaam ko delegate karti hoon.

05:02I don't feel, I don't beat myself up if I'm not always available for everything.

05:08I prioritize what I really want to do.

05:11And over the years, I've learned to say no.

05:14I think that's a very powerful thing to be able to say.

05:17The ability to say no.

05:18Agar kuch nahi, ya.

05:19Agar kisi cheez ke liye aap samay nahi bana sakte, toh na kar dena chahiye.

05:23Usme koi buri baat nahi hai, first.

05:25Absolutely.

05:26Couldn't agree with you more.

05:28So, on a lighter note, like, if you just had, like, you know, 24 hours to live,

05:33how would you live it up?

05:34Haan.

05:36Exactly the way I'm living right now.

05:38That's exactly how I think of it.

05:40Yeah, because I'm doing everything that I love.

05:42I live in a home that I love.

05:44I'm surrounded by the people that I love.

05:46And I do the kind of work that I love.

05:48Toh uske alawa aur kya chahiye life mein?

05:50I'd happily die today.

05:53Well, that's very profound.

05:55So, since we're on the topic of fun, now you get to ask me a question.

05:58I don't know if your question is fun or not, but you can just ask me.

06:01Toh bebo, aapko mujhe yeh batana hai ki agar aap kisi kaam pe ja rahe hain

06:07aur you feel ki aapko promotion milna chahiye, who should make the first move?

06:12Kya aapko first move karna chahiye?

06:14Yaar you should wait for your boss to make the first move?

06:17I think I know what you'll say, but please answer this question.

06:20I think the way this young generation is, I don't think they have the patience.

06:26Wait for anything.

06:27They don't wait for anything.

06:28And I think if you are good at your job, you have confidence,

06:32I think one shouldn't have any fear.

06:34You can go out there and get it and just ask the question.

06:37At least you know that's how I am.

06:39Yeah, fully.

06:41But obviously, you should have the merit too.

06:43So do your job well first.

06:45Exactly, and then just go out there, right?

06:47I'd do the same.

06:48Lovely.

06:49And health ko lehkar tum kitni apni khayal rakhti ho?

06:53I think the first thing that I did, Bebo, was make myself a routine.

06:57Eating, obviously, healthy, nourishing food.

07:01Lots of fruit, lots of vegetables.

07:04Aur I think satra ya 20 saalu mein pehli baar,

07:07Maine apni maa ke haath ka khaana roz khaya hai through the lockdown.
