Confessions of a Modern Bhen

Being a member of the Dawoodi Bhora community in modern-day America while juggling a full-time job in the corporate world, a thriving social life, and family obligations is a tall order for anyone. Being a woman makes it all that much more challenging.

Being an American women in today's world is difficult. There is the well-discussed expectation that the modern woman be capable of seamlessly managing a thriving career, a successful marriage, and happy family -- all while maintaining an effortless aura of calm beauty and control.

These expectations hold true of the modern Bhora women as well... with a couple of additional hurdles thrown in along the way, just to make life extra interesting!

I have created a blog for the purpose of exploring some these challenges, and all the crazy, hilarious, frustrating and fulfilling moments that come along with it...

I invite you to visit my blog at http://modernbhen.blogspot.com/ to join in my laughter and chagrin.
