Actress and author Soha Ali Khan has opened up about the nuanced challenges of parenting her 8-year-old daughter Inaaya Naumi Kemmu, including navigating age-appropriate conversations around sexuality — a topic she addressed candidly on the latest episode of her podcast 'All About Her'.

What the Episode Covered

The episode featured Dr. Seema Anand, an author, researcher, and storyteller known for her scholarship on sexuality, relationships, and ancient Indian traditions, alongside Leeza Mangaldas, an author, content creator, and sexual wellness advocate who champions open, informed conversations around sex, pleasure, and intimacy. Together, the three discussed the right age and approach for introducing children to conversations about sexuality.

Soha's Candid Parenting Moment

Soha recounted a telling domestic episode involving her daughter and podcast research materials. 'These books — The Art of Seduction and Speak Easy — have been on my dining table as well over the past couple of weeks, and my daughter's eight and she can read now,' she said. 'And I thought, oh, should I… because also she was going through my cue cards the other day and, you know, I said maybe I should take away the ones that are related to this podcast because she might ask questions. And I thought, okay, let me just… and luckily, she went through the Kiran Bedi ones and she didn't go through these ones, so she was asking other questions.'

The anecdote captures a tension many modern parents face: balancing a child's growing curiosity and literacy with questions they may not yet be equipped to contextualise.

The Broader Conversation on Women and Sexuality

Beyond parenting, the episode explored how women can better understand their own desires, embrace sexual pleasure without shame, and approach intimacy in more empowered ways. The perspectives offered by Dr. Anand and Mangaldas drew on both contemporary research and India's ancient traditions — offering a culturally grounded framework rarely seen in mainstream wellness discourse.
