On the episode, Jaya spoke about the importance of physical intimacy being a marker of compatibility in a relationship. Speaking to NDTV, Navya said that the episode largely got a positive response from listeners, and that she understands how a section of people may not always agree with what is said on her podcast.
“I think, when you are putting yourself out there, whether it be podcast or work — and all of us are on social media so everybody is watching you — I think that when you are putting yourself out there, you have to understand that something that you are sharing with the world, your opinions, people may agree, people may disagree. I think that the purity and motivation behind this podcast was to have really nice, fun, intelligent conversations and I think we were able to do that. I am grateful for all the love and support,” said Navya.
She went on to add that the fact that they have been able to create a safe space for women to listen in has been extremely gratifying: “I think the whole point of this podcast was to create a safe space for women and I think we were able to do that. I felt confident enough and comfortable enough to talk to them about anything like relationships, friendships.”
