Hindsight is always 2020 and lessons are easier to learn once the fog has settled. Raising kids is a challenge and a sacrifice, but doing it while having to leave a 15 year marriage, moving across the world and having to survive the silicon valley hustle isn’t an obstacle for the faint of heart.. Join us on our 5th episode of the Khancept — where we kick off a new series called the Soul Series— We will be bringing on folks who have impacted our lives on a deeper level and touched our own souls in one form or another. Our first guest is the epitome of strength, courage and love. She is an entrepreneur, a business woman, an emotionally intelligent legend, and our own personal hero - our very own mom. Tune in to hear about our own evolving relationship, the toxicity that generational differences can bring into families, and most importantly how the turning point in our own lives brought out a lot of hard truths. Tune it to hear and learn about the strength it takes to not let your circumstances become your reality and how to rise above them.

4 | The Dumbledore of Rejection
We have all faced rejection and can unanimously agree that failure sucks. It’s not fun, it’s nerve wracking and sometimes can take the life out of you. What if the torment you feel isn’t actually something that you can just move on from, despite everyone telling you to “brush it off”? What if in fact it’s happening due to a chemical response that roots back to ancient times? Aka it’s not your fault you feel the way you do. Tune into this week's episode to hear about our own personal failures, from relationships, to the dating world, failures, and the cycles of life that bring the good, the bad, and how rejection is really just disguised as redirection. Join Taania (@TaaniaKhan) and Natasha (@DearNatashaKhan) every 2nd and 3rd Wednesday of the month where they jump into their ventures — from storytelling around topics like mental health, tech, battling depression, how mindfulness is a super power we all should using, to the things they learn as they grow their real estate empire.

Have you ever imagined what it’s actually like living in a third world country? What happens when you are plucked and moved 8000 miles away as a kid? What about if you throw in skipping 2 grades, not knowing the native language, and watching as the country erupts into chaos as it reacts to an assassination. Diving into stories from of what our first year in a new country brought, to discussing the fear that resulted in hiding our own ethnicity, mental health, & coming full circle from experiencing the chaos that erupted when a third worlds country’s female leader was assassinated to the deeper message behind having minority woman representation in the white house in 2020, and what that means for little girls everywhere.

Taania Khan (@TaaniaKhan) and Natasha Khan (@DearNatashaKhan) are co-hosting @theKhancept talking about the position in the world today and the importance of silver linings, the foundation they have built and how the loss of Kobe Bryant’s taught the world a lesson much deeper than basketball. Talking about unconventional paths, differentiating between 2 twin sisters and how each individual impact you make goes much farther than you’ll ever believe. The intricacy of infectious problems and providing passionate solutions to those issues :-)
