À propos de cet audio

 What happens when cultural traditions collide with the whirlwind of modern dating? Welcome to Love-ly, the podcast where our host (@whatthemehak) explores the beautifully messy, deeply personal stories of love, identity, and connection. From first and second-generation immigrants balancing family expectations to Gen Z navigating dating apps and “situationships,” Love-ly dives into the heart of what it means to love in today’s tech-driven world. Every Friday, tune in for heartfelt conversations that remind us of one universal truth: no matter where you’re from or what your relationship status is, everyone has a lovely story worth telling.

  • Polyamory, Hierarchies & the Relationship Escalator: A Deep Dive with Leanne Yau

    Polyamory, Hierarchies & the Relationship Escalator: A Deep Dive with Leanne Yau
    Jul 18 2025
    Feeling tired, moody, or breaking out for no reason? We thought it was just burnout—until we tried Function Health. Function tracks over 160 biomarkers, including hormones, stress, Vitamin D, and more, to help users understand what’s going on inside. Learn more at www.functionhealth.com/LOVELY. In this episode of Love-ly, host Mehak sits down with Leanne Yau, British sex and relationship educator and the voice behind @polyphiliablog, to unpack the nuances of polyamory. From her first open relationship at 17 to living non-hierarchically with multiple partners, Leanne shares her journey, debunks common misconceptions (like “polyamory is just for people bad at monogamy”), and explains terms like relationship hierarchy, relationship escalator, and relationship anarchy. Whether you’re monogamish, poly-curious, or somewhere in between, this conversation offers a thoughtful and judgment-free look at how we define love, connection, and commitment. You can find Leanne's content on YouTube (@PolyPhilia) and Instagram (@polyphiliablog).

  • Love-ly Letters: Burn Bright, Fade Fast

    Love-ly Letters: Burn Bright, Fade Fast

    Subscribe to Hyphenly, our new newsletter with hot takes, heartfelt stories, and all the feels of living in between cultures. Come for the nuance, stay for the vibes. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://immigrantlys-newsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribe⁠⁠ This week’s Love-ly episode is a real one—like, voice-memo-real. When listener and freelance podcast producer Teja Pallikonda reached out with a recent dating story, we knew we had to share it. It starts like a modern fairytale: hours-long phone calls, a dreamy first date, and the kind of potential that gets you hopeful. But then… came the slow ghost. Excuses. Cancellations. Confusion. Teja brings receipts — literally. She plays us the actual breakup voice memo she sent this Hinge man (yes, he heard it, and now so will you), and unpacks what it taught her about communication, self-worth, and managing dating anxiety. Our host, Mehak, offers her hot takes on why she never gives strangers the benefit of the doubt, and what it means to set standards in the age of soft boys and disappearing acts. Romance, realness, and voice notes? Hit play.

  • Confessions, Confidence & Cringe Dates: A No Filter Chat with Uzi

    Confessions, Confidence & Cringe Dates: A No Filter Chat with Uzi
    Jun 27 2025
    Subscribe to Hyphenly, our new newsletter with hot takes, heartfelt stories, and all the feels of living in between cultures. Come for the nuance, stay for the vibes. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://immigrantlys-newsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribe⁠⁠ This week on Love-ly, Mehak sits down with the unapologetically charming Uzi for a wildly entertaining, refreshingly honest conversation about dating in the age of ghosting, rejection, and situationships. From chasing strangers by the waterfront to getting called out mid-flirt for shady texts, Uzi shares his unfiltered takes on confidence, emotional availability, and why being a “nice guy” sometimes backfires. They get into the real stuff: what women often misunderstand about men, how to approach someone in real life without being weird, and whether liking bikini pics while cuffed is ever okay. Plus, Uzi opens up about immigrant identity, therapy, fake-it-till-you-make-it confidence, and why he’s pressing pause on dating for now. If you've ever felt nervous shooting your shot or wondered if you’re too much or not enough, this episode is your sign to go for it. Hit play. Share with your group chat. Maybe even send it to your situationship!
