We are Kiran Hothi & Sonam Kaur, co-founders of NotYourWife.
NotYourWife is a new media company centred around amplifying the voices of South Asian women and discussing the experiences of diasporic South Asians. Through a combination of articles, events, workshops and social media platforms, we are committed to sharing the untold stories of South Asian women and ‘third culture kids’ growing up in the diaspora. The name of our platform is a ‘tongue-in-cheek’ reference to the cultural stereotype attached to South Asian women. In just eight months, our fast-growing platform has gained a following of over 28,000 individuals on social media (Instagram: NotYourWife__), reaches just under half a million individuals on a weekly basis and has over 70 individuals within its contributor community (www.not-your-wife.com). We were named ‘Top Female Entrepreneurs to watch in 2021’ and have recently been featured on CNN & The Independent.
