On this episode I share a personal story about the time that I dated a narcissist. Dating a narcissist to me is classified under going through an abusive traumatic experience. The kind where you always consistently find yourself stressed out, in flight or fight or fawn mode, along with moments of euphoria. Things look ideal but don't feel it. Suddenly your emotions work against you, you question your own logic and you turn against yourself. You're being gaslighted, taken advantage of and all by the most toxic kind of person. And there seems to be no way out because somehow you're also being convinced that YOU'RE the problem.  Follow us!!

Storytime: My traumatic experience dating a Narcissist

I have been thinking about the idea of success, of "making it". If you had to define it, could you? We're sold this dream of being successful, our generation is full of online success stories unlike any generation before them. But if it really came down to it, do we ever know when we've reached this destination?

Tit Bits #5 - Will I ever be successful?

Opposite sex friendships can get tricky in relationships. Especially if they're referred to as "best friends". When the lines get muddy and red flags start showing up, is it something you can be comfortable with? Insecurities are normal, toxic dynamics in relationships aren't. And can straight women and men actually be best friends? I don't know....I have doubts. Follow us!!  IG: @notallowedpodcast Host: @itsjanani FB:  https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q...

Can my boyfriend have a female best friend?...and am I ok with that?

I HATE it when guys think it's okay to comment while being subtly condescending. It's such a pet peeve of mine and it's not cute. He's an asshole sis, move on.   Follow us   IG: @notallowedpodcast  Host: @itsjanani  FB:  https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q...

Tit Bit #4 - Bf's that think its ok to comment on their girlfriends life choices

Are you sick of scrolling through facebook and watching all your friends get married? In this episode we talk about the familiar fear of ending up alone. Marriage is a big deal to every Indian girl growing up. But what happens when things don't quite fall into place where we expected them to? What are we supposed to do then?

Tit Bits #3 - Are you in the Meme Zone?

On this episode we discuss the age old question, a running joke amongst girlfriends - "I'm just automatically drawn to toxic guys, I don't know what it is about them"  - What kind of guy is considered toxic? How do you spot toxic behaviors? Why do we come across them so often? and what is it about them that's so attractive that even the smartest woman in the room has had a toxic man in her life.  JOIN OUR COMMUNITY ON FB!

Why smart women are attracted to toxic men

I'm so SurPRiSeD you know Tame Impala! Do you even know what PuLp FiCtIon is? Have you ever watched a Quintin Tarantula film? I bet you listen to Taylor Swift. In this Tit Bit episode we talk about indie softboy "pick me" guys that make me breakout in hives with their niche requirements to be impressed by a woman.  Follow the podcast @notallowedpodcast https://www.instagram.com/notallowedpodcast/ for more fun content and our host Janani @itsjanani https://www.instagram.com/itsjanani/

Tit Bits #2 - "Pick me" guys and their extra specific, totally redundant criteria to date women

Let's talk about the ol' nubbin rubbin' and the stigma around it that burdens us with guilt. Female pleasure is not prioritized, not taught and definitely not spoken about often, hence -enabling- the stigma around it. Masturbation is wet with misogyny and we need it to stay away from the rights we have as women over our bodies and our pleasure. In this episode we talk about learning to ask for pleasure in the bedroom, giving it to ourselves, the dilemma around porn and the de-stigmatization that needs to occur through normalizing an open conversation around masturbation.  Follow the podcast @notallowedpodcast https://www.instagram.com/notallowedpodcast/ for more fun content and our host Janani @itsjanani https://www.instagram.com/itsjanani/

Flick of the Clit

Welcome to TIT BITS!!! Tit sized or bite sized episodes of the podcast where we do storytimes, quick rants, thoughts of the day and talk about anything under 15 minutes. Tit bits are for those of us that have a hard time listening to entire episodes (hello ADHD, it's me Janani), and just want to tune in for some daily dose of entertainment without the commitment. So get your tits out, chill out and enjoy!

Tit Bits #1 - Tits Out, Chill Out

A little vulnerable episode where we talk about how getting lonely is part of being a bad bitch. I've coined a phrase for it - bad bitch loneliness, where not settling for less in life and keeping your standards high can come with a period of loneliness. We talk about societal milestones that we impose on ourselves, ideas of an ideal scenario and how things never happen according to our predictions. And to set things in perspective, if Jennifer Aniston, the baddest single bitch of them all, is doing fine, we're ALL doing fine.  Follow the podcast @notallowedpodcast https://www.instagram.com/notallowedpodcast/ for more fun content and our host Janani @itsjanani https://www.instagram.com/itsjanani/

Bad Bitch Loneliness

Casual relationships, the most popular and in demand kind of relationship in this generation. Ironically the relationship that's the least bit casual and the one seemingly with the most rules to follow. Let's talk about the REAL reason why people seem to want this kind of non comital form of romance. Is it just for the sex? Is it to establish control? Is it fear of abandonment? Is it fear of getting hurt again? And most importantly, is it for you?  Follow the podcast @notallowedpodcast https://www.instagram.com/notallowedpodcast/ for more fun content and our host Janani @itsjanani https://www.instagram.com/itsjanani/
