My Parents Kept Their Divorce A Secret For 3 Years with Nishima Gupta

Apr 5, 2021
01:09:19

We are joined by emerging Indian-American television writer and former writer of Huffington Post, Nishima Gupta - whose article about her parents’ divorce went viral. Nishima is sharing the moment she found out about her parents’ divorce (3 years after the fact while living under the same roof), why they kept this information from her, and how this has impacted her view on marriage and relationships. We also discuss trauma, Indian representation in the media, and how wildly different divorce can look across families and cultures. Are you an adult child of divorce, or going through one yourself? Tune in! You’re not alone.
