Episode 5

It is so easy to feel like a failure when you are a mother. Guilt and shame become your second nature. And a bad day often seems like a failed life.

This pressure of always performing at top notch level. The need to be perfect. And the very little scope to release your emotions is what results in chaos and exhaustion.

But bad days pass. And just like that you grow muscle. But most importantly you need to be kind to yourself. And savour the uniqueness of your motherhood journey.

If you ever want to talk, share your story. Then please reach out to me on my Instagram handle @shivaakalwadi. Looking forward to hearing your bit of the journey.
