Hi, my name is Caty. I am a very loud Mexican 13 year old. I just wanted to say hi and thank Zoya. In my daily life people are always complaining about my passion with life and my willingness to be loud. And sometimes it has really put me down. So when I heard that something similar had happened to you, I felt understood. And not only you gave me that comfort but also gave me advice that I will hold forever in my heart. I also want to thank all of you on my family’s behalf. You all have put a smile on our faces, gave us something to look forward to every day and deep reflections on our life and choices. Thank you for reading this one long comment. I hope you find happiness and beautiful things in your lives. Love - Caty
I give my A grade to Zoya because she brought up an excellent point about how confidence is seen as a positive trait in many men but that same behaviour can be seen as a negative in many women - that is a deeper aspect of this topic worth digging into.
I think Zarna's stance on confidence is the most relatable. Confidence needs no validation from anyone, you just need to know yourself and be comfortable in your skin. 😊
All of you made great points. I’d like to add unconditional parental love. I think this is the most important singular factor for any child to develop confidence in any realm of their life.
Love this topic and your family podcast! True confidence is a muscle that gets stronger as you do things and get better at them. To be confident it's important to be able to bounce back and try again. But there's also important cousins of confidents: self-assurance and self-esteem that are more emotional qualities. Being labeled at an early age as smart, dumb, pretty or ugly impact a person their whole lives. These labels (positive or negative) stick and are tough to shake.
So so sweet how close of a bond the boys have with their sister. I love to see it. I do think if there is a guy you really like, flirt a little and give him hints that you’re into him but never be the one to ask him out. Give him the chance to him to do it first
Everyone is brilliant but I would love to hear more from Veer. His 360 to 180 correction brought a chuckle!!! You have 5 very big personalities in the room, and every one brings so much value to these podcasts. 👏🏼
I've loved listening to this podcast for your humor and exposure what to a healthy family dynamic could look like. However, this episode floors me. Everyone so wonderfully articulated their thoughts. It floors me because I don't think they're media-trained. These are normal people with normal exposure to the world? I'd love to hear how the Gargs manage to accomplish this. It couldn't just be UN debating because even the littlest one does it so well.
A grade Zarna and Veer! Introverts and not just popular kids in the school context can be extremely confident and are often overlooked by extroverted personalities valued by American culture.
This episode is amazing. As always, so amazed by how wise all these three kids are. A grade to all 3 kids for sure . Zarna's point about encouraging the kids to take all their shots while they are there to catch them , if they fall is something thought provoking for me. Shalabh 👍. Zoya is lucky to have two brothers and I think it definitely matters. By the way, Happy Rakshabandhan
I like what mom did by exposing her kids to different activities and sports it makes kid well rounded and makes them confident Inlove this channel because it’s family friendly and inspiring!! Love the quotes!!! ❤❤❤❤thank you
Confidence as most of us might agree and just like another trait, it's a spectrum. You folks touched on social confidence vs. skills based confidence. Not everyone has full spectrum 😊
I give my A grade to Brij. He was actually talking about emotional intelligence being a vehicle to confidence. Having a very high IQ doesn’t automatically make a person confident.
I love your podcasts. I gives me insight on how to parent not only by grownups but also through these 3 kids eyes. I loved this particular podcast so much as I have struggled with confidence so much throughout life. Hats off to you Zarna for doing such an incredible job with kids. My mom pushed me too for different activities. I will do that too with kids too 😛 I would love to hear in next podcast about Shalabh's recent struggle in professional life and I would live if you can deep dive in why you moved your kids to public school from private.
Listening to this podcast I feel Zarna has been and is such an amazing parent. I would love to know what do you do to build your confidence and knowledge about life skills. It is not easy and not very common in stay at home women. Kudos to you! It is commendable ❤
my confidence grew over time. it's when I learned successful people became successful when they kept on even after failure after failure. they 'keep on keeping on. no matter what'. so that is one of my mottos. and to Zoya - I LOVE YOUR IG POST!!!
Hi Zarna Ma'am and the fam! Thank you ma'am for making me laugh and get scared of you at the same time. Absolutely loving the podcast-it's always a great mix of humor and insight. I did notice that the pace has fallen sometimes. Maybe you could introduce a 'Fan Fam' segment where a viewer joins in to ask some of the most controversial and fun questions? I think it could really add an extra spark and keep everyone even more engaged. Just a thought-keep up the amazing work and inspiring millions of households to have conversations that they otherwise avoid! :)
I agree with Veer completely about the fact that confidence is whether you have it or not. There is no little or much. Yes, parents should allow their kids to do what they are good at by signing them up for relevant activities and competitions. This family podcast is what Zarna has said it was one of a kind, great job to the Garg family. For Zoya (room for improvement), learn to speak up at the right time while others are talking and stick to specific points. Zoya, you can learn from the rest of your family members. Room for improvement helps to elevate your confidence.
Love everything about this much needed topic . Again, I agree with Zarna.. an introvert can be very confident too. Also, one cannot be suddenly confident. It is like brick by brick. Debates clubs or any other public speaking or performing art gives one confidence through the exposure.
Hi Zarna m'am and the fam! I am a HUGEEEEE fan. Thanks for making me laugh and get scared of you M'am. Absolutely loving the podcast-it's always a great mix of humor and insight.

We love your show and watch often. Planning to travel to New York from ATL in the next few weeks it would be great to participate in one of your shows. Love the comedy also but the pod cast has really been impressive and there are many topics that deserve a live audience.
I lost confidence in air travel in 2010 when I saw news of plane crash in Mangalore airport killing many family entirely. For the next 2 years, me and wife used to take different planes. I still get heavy anxiety to travel by air.
Just like Brij mentioned about Boys getting/not getting confidence based on the ability to talk to women, I would like to mention that not being seen as a women of interest by Boys/ men equally destroys confidence. Attractive women tend to have more confidence to start with, others just have to work harder to build it.
I lost confidence after I started to get chronic illnesses like frozen shoulder due to which I got 24x7 constant pain, not able to wear clothes or bath, not able to sit in the chair to do my desk job.
Confidence as per my extremely logical understanding tends to usually come from only and only 3 things It’s either success or talent/skill or stupidity
For me personally cause of my speech impediment I felt stupid… I watched some English teachers on TH-cam teaching how to make to the sounds of words that helped me so much…
It's Important to Go to College. The college doesn't matter it's the hard work and completing the Education. The Name of the College shouldn't be looked down upon. It's the Will to start and complete an education. Higher Education doesn't come easy to everyone many people don't have the privilege. A good college is Any College!
Brij is young and hasn't see life much. You can tell it from the confidence stance that he has taken. Whereas Zarna told the real definition of confidence. Shouting, being masculine always doesn't mean being confident. Diifference between cockiness and confidence.
15:15 agreed you have to judge your audience . If they are mature enough or not . And frankly that has very little to do with age and more with experience.
Hope you take my opinion as a construstive feedback. Take what you like and leave the rest. The topic was excellent. I loved Zoya's and Zarnas views about confidence. Zarna you are very smart, honest and funny. I genuinely respect your honesty. Now I want to urge all of you especially Zoya to give others a chance to speak. I felt so sad for the youngest one who was again missed in this episode. The parents have a tendency to dode on Brij a lot. I get that. How about bringing in topic that is of interest to Veer as well. Also maybe having a timer so some people wont hog the conversation. I love your courage to expose yourself and family in the public arena. I only wish all of you success because you all are very interesting.
Confidence should be measured by yourself and others who can give proper feedback. Do you feel confident after speaking or doing something? And I believe that giving yourself room for improvement is an added value to what your confidence is all about.
OMG, Shalab id not attractive at all, maybe to Indian woman, but not otherwise, IMO. But, he does have a lot of confidence likely because he is an Indian man whose wife follows the Indian tradition of overpraising their respective husbands. They get played, if you will, in this department. Also, I think his "confidence" comes from taking the peacock role as in he must talk and know all the answers because he is The Man.
@@marymagdalene3004lol I think the commentator was being sarcastic. Of course he’s not conventionally attractive. But the fact he describes that his confidence comes from successful spouse and kids is an incredibly attractive quality.
Yes. That was sarcasm. I do not lust over Shalabh. But, I do find him attractive. Here is why: 1. His Intelligence ( as a fellow ex-IITian, I know) 2. His support for his wife and her career. 3. Re-invent himself in his 40s - both career reset and health-reset. Its admirable. 4. His willingness to learn (even from his children) and grow. 5. His sense of humor.
I think the talking that is done here is a lot of words rather than brilliant mature analysis. Almost like it's a contest of who can say the most words in the quickest way (except for Zoya), so that they sound kind of smart. Just be quick and say a lot of things and you will show how smart you are. Maybe it's just that they are young - Brij and Veer, and this is how it goes. Except Veer seems to have more wisdom when he speaks whereas Brij is just quick and fast-speaking and it comes across as someone speaking empty words.
You're very funny, but as a mom of a philosoher, an activist and a musician, with a degree in literature myself, I feel like a total loser in your eyes, like you're better than us and we're not worthy. I bet you support Trump! Thanks for getting laughs by trashing normal people. Ha ha ha.

I agree with you😊
I think Zarna's stance on confidence is the most relatable. Confidence needs no validation from anyone, you just need to know yourself and be comfortable in your skin. 😊
Hats off to Zarna for her parenting strategy of getting the kids to do uncomfortable stuff and gain confidence through the process ❤
All of you made great points. I’d like to add unconditional parental love. I think this is the most important singular factor for any child to develop confidence in any realm of their life.
And PLEASE don't ever stop this podcast!! I look forward to it every week. Continued success and God bless you all 🙏❤️
Zoya is awesome! I love her viewpoints and she adds value to the conversation. Keep speaking out your heart Zoya.

Love the fact you guys can discuss relationships so well with your parents .
Veer’s explanation of confidence is excellent ... when he got to speak.

Love your podcast and the contributions from every member in your family!!!
M so hooked on to watching the podcast 😊
Shalab uncle is the coolest. I love ur family podcast. ❤
This episode is amazing. As always, so amazed by how wise all these three kids are. A grade to all 3 kids for sure . Zarna's point about encouraging the kids to take all their shots while they are there to catch them , if they fall is something thought provoking for me.

This is so great guys! I'm glad I came across a few of your shorts.
eagerly waiting for your podcast. never stop posting such podcasts. love you and your family!!!

I wish I could spend a couple of months with Zarna , seems like it’ll solve a lot of my problems
It’ll be a therapeutic experience ❤

A to the whole family for their honesty.
Shalabh point -I was the talent behind your talent😂😂😂😂 got me cracking
Zarna's stance and definition as well as Veer is so full of so much of depth for his age, Brij for being honest
Love everything about this much needed topic .
Again, I agree with Zarna.. an introvert can be very confident too.
Also, one cannot be suddenly confident. It is like brick by brick. Debates clubs or any other public speaking or performing art gives one confidence through the exposure.
OMG Zoya never stops talking.
Hi Zarna m'am and the fam!
I am a HUGEEEEE fan. Thanks for making me laugh and get scared of you M'am.

Lot of love
Getting into top colleges increases Mr. Garg’s sense of self.
We love your show and watch often. Planning to travel to New York from ATL in the next few weeks it would be great to participate in one of your shows. Love the comedy also but the pod cast has really been impressive and there are many topics that deserve a live audience.
Why do i get a feeling that Brij is highly into the alpha podcasts and even influenced by them. 😂
Zoya defined confidence very well. My A grade to her. Also Brij made some very decent points.
I lost confidence in air travel in 2010 when I saw news of plane crash in Mangalore airport killing many family entirely.
For the next 2 years, me and wife used to take different planes. I still get heavy anxiety to travel by air.
Just like Brij mentioned about Boys getting/not getting confidence based on the ability to talk to women, I would like to mention that not being seen as a women of interest by Boys/ men equally destroys confidence. Attractive women tend to have more confidence to start with, others just have to work harder to build it.
Loved this one! How do the kids have such clarity of thought at such young age- any tips
Loved this episode!! Keep
Going guys!
I lost confidence after I started to get chronic illnesses like frozen shoulder due to which I got 24x7 constant pain, not able to wear clothes or bath, not able to sit in the chair to do my desk job.
Auntie Z, I have my tickets to see you in Batavia, IL in October!!! 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I can't wait to see your stand up again!!!
Veer is zoned out in the beginning
Loved watching Veer end the show. So cute!
Keep it up 👍❤️👍
Confidence as per my extremely logical understanding tends to usually come from only and only 3 things
It’s either success or talent/skill or stupidity
If all the kids are talking on their own/ (without having a script) they are all amazing and I love their opinions and the their understanding
The whole point is to share their thoughts and opinions. "Script" 😅
I can relate with Zarna's point the most..
Loved this episode. ❤❤❤
For me personally cause of my speech impediment I felt stupid… I watched some English teachers on TH-cam teaching how to make to the sounds of words that helped me so much…
It's Important to Go to College. The college doesn't matter it's the hard work and completing the Education. The Name of the College shouldn't be looked down upon. It's the Will to start and complete an education. Higher Education doesn't come easy to everyone many people don't have the privilege. A good college is Any College!
Zoya is great and an inspiration for the women of her generation!
Love this podcast❤️
Confidence is being able to who you are regardless of how the world is gonna perceive you by that I don't mean being disrespectful
10:10 💯 I can relate to you man ❤ as a girl or woman. That ability to handle a women or womens like shahrukh ❤❤❤❤
A grade to Brij who is oozing confidence.
Confodence for me comes for me when I excel at anything I do and also when I look good.
Brij is young and hasn't see life much. You can tell it from the confidence stance that he has taken. Whereas Zarna told the real definition of confidence. Shouting, being masculine always doesn't mean being confident. Diifference between cockiness and confidence.
sending lots of love 😍💖
15:15 agreed you have to judge your audience . If they are mature enough or not . And frankly that has very little to do with age and more with experience.
Hope you take my opinion as a construstive feedback. Take what you like and leave the rest. The topic was excellent. I loved Zoya's and Zarnas views about

Love You All.. Bridg is so handsome & smart.. actually all of them are so smart and I’d love to be in a conversation with them..
Confidence should be measured by yourself and others who can give proper feedback. Do you feel confident after speaking or doing something? And I believe that giving yourself room for improvement is an added value to what your confidence is all about.
Brij quoting proverb about fear and success in the beginning makes me laugh because some time back he was mocking people who make such proverbs.
haha....thumbs up for the dad! =)
Zoya talks a lot, let the little man talk more. He is entertaining 😅
OMG Mr. Garg! “I was the talent behind your talent!!” 😂
Shalab 👍this one is for you 😉
Zoya could be a good singer ! She almost sings while she talks 😅
Zarna aunty: Are we becoming a White family now?
Me: Yes. This Indian thingy was anyways just a PR thing 😂😂😂
Confident people don’t do a lot. People who do a lot are confident people.
Zoya does take over. She should allow everyone to contribute.
Brij is so TRUE 👍
So nice to see sweet, feisty and gorgeous Zoya in a salvar. Nect step Sari. Love from NZ Shalini
Very good
👍
Shalab 👌👍
Love it that Zoya has a voice and uses it.
Nice
What “women” was Brij talking to in 7th grade! 😂 I think he means girls.
Namaste zarna aunty i am in 1st year medical from aiims and i really like brijs personality ,can we be a match
That is just to long of a distance 😂 india to america
Would encourage everyone to try toastmasters …
What does Bia and Didi mean? Is that what you call your Bro and Sis?
Yes bhaiya and didi
Beautiful dress or top Zoya.
Veer interrupted...again. 😢
Veer 180🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m too early ❤
Dad needs to ask these lusty women to come on the podcast… next podcast on dating to be led by kids!!!!
A grade to Brig
SECOND!!!
Thumbs up for Shalabh 👍. Yes, we all women lust over you all the time 😂
OMG, Shalab id not attractive at all, maybe to Indian woman, but not otherwise, IMO. But, he does have a lot of confidence likely because he is an Indian man whose wife follows the Indian tradition of overpraising their respective husbands. They get played, if you will, in this department. Also, I think his "confidence" comes from taking the peacock role as in he must talk and know all the answers because he is The Man.

What Brij is defining confidence is actually having high self esteem.
First

Almost like it's a contest of who can say the most words in the quickest way (except for Zoya), so that they sound kind of smart.

True
Zoya you use up all the damn time.Make it short and sweet.
What!!! I love when she speaks! She makes great points! Yes she talks a lot but that’s just who she is lol I love it!
She has one gear and it's 5th. She likes to hear her own opinions more than anything.
She’s a confident young woman who has a voice.
I love to here her opinion. And I watch the podcast for Zoya and Zarna.
Whaaaat type of comment is this!? she can have all the time she want too bless her ❤.
And just saw you know, most of the Indian doctors I've gone to treat me like shit because I'm poor.
You're very funny, but as a mom of a philosoher, an activist and a musician, with a degree in literature myself, I feel like a total loser in your eyes, like you're better than us and we're not worthy. I bet you support Trump! Thanks for getting laughs by trashing normal people. Ha ha ha.
