Farhad & Sunetro look back at the journey as the show hits a century

C for Century!

The future is inclusive. And to build that, we need the present to consider it. How many of us have a person from the queer community as colleagues? Maybe the media sector has more people as it is comparatively quite inclusive but then again policies rarely include them. Introducing a third check box in the gender section is not enough, and just having a PR exercise or rainbow-ing the logos in Pride month is just show-off. 

To talk about all this and more, we had Sonica Aron, Managing Partner at Marching Sheep- an HR Consultancy that helps businesses be more inclusive. We cover important issues- to begin with- identifying the lack of diversity, to training staff to be more more accommodating and understanding of the queer folks, implementing policies and including them in existing policies, etc. 

We also discuss inclusion with reference to persons with disability, special needs, learning disabilities, etc as well.

Farhad & Sunetro talk about Diversity and Inclusivity with Sonica Aron from Marching Sheep

ft. Sonica Aron, Managing Partner, Marching Sheep

There are phases of cravings, and fulfilling them; and then there are days of aversion when you just want to avoid any indulgence. It can be many things but here we talk with reference to sex and how there are days and phases of feeling sexless; when touch is not comforting, when closeness is not cozy, and comfort is in space. 

In this episode, Farhad & Sunetro discuss these feelings, some possible causes for the same, and how it is okay to feel so occasionally.
