With raw humor and profound insight, this episode explores:

• Comedy as activism: how laughter becomes a lens for societal critique.

• From “fish out of water” to global performer—on belonging everywhere and nowhere.

• Why community is the antidote to modern loneliness and the next frontier of mental health.

• Aging with pride: rejecting the expiry-date narrative on women’s worth.

• The power of spiritual growth and building a life that expands—like a tree, not a ladder.

This conversation is a celebration of freedom, feminine power, and finding home within yourself—whether you’re on stage, in a new city, or deep in self-discovery. Catch Kaneez Surka live on her world tour and in her upcoming comedy special, "I Found My People."
