Description

Why do so many of us try to be extra everything, extra straight, extra successful, extra unbothered, just to prove we belong? In this episode, Shane gets real about bisexuality, awkward coming outs, and what it means to be queer and Indian in spaces that don’t always understand either. From overcompensating in college to finally embracing softness, desire, and self-worth, this is a messy, funny, and honest exploration of identity and the armor we learn to wear.

Whether you're questioning, healing, or just here for the emotional rollercoaster with chai, Chai Me A River brings big feelings with bite.
