Asians Do Therapy

Sahaj Kaur Kohli. The Culture Broker

Yin J. Li, LMFT Episode 16

New podcast episode!

In this conversation, I speak with Sahaj Kaur Kohli.

We chat about:

  • the re-authoring of her story through writing her book
  • her hopes and fears surrounding its release
  • being a cultural broker in her family and the shifts in her family dynamics with her parents and siblings
  • mental health and what it means, differences in mental health education and therapy
  • her therapy journey and challenges of finding a therapist for herself 

I found Sahaj to be warm, endearing, and transparent about her process and story.  You can purchase her book at But What Will People Say? Book (sahajkaurkohli.com)
