About this listen

With Diwali’s light still glowing since last month, we celebrate light, empowerment, and conversation with two inspiring guests: Mahi Patel, VP of Outreach, and Gurnoor Dhillon, Academic Coordinator from the Women in Law Association YorkU.

As the festival of lights reminds us of new beginnings and strength through unity, this episode of Lady Justice Talks sheds light on the myths, barriers, and social expectations that South Asian women continue to face , from career and marriage pressures to challenges within law, immigration, and Western ideals.

Join us as Mahi and Gurnoor open up about their personal journeys, breaking stereotypes, and advocating for spaces where women can rise with confidence and purpose. This Diwali, we illuminate the path toward advocacy, representation, and empowerment — one story at a time.

Tune in to celebrate voices that matter, stories that inspire, and the light that never fades!
