In This Episode
In this episode, Priya Lobo joins us to share her refreshingly honest approach to parenting. Priya’s journey as the mother of an only child has taught her invaluable lessons about growth, connection, and resilience. From acknowledging that “parents are not perfect” to discovering how the parent-child bond can sometimes feel like a sibling relationship, Priya’s insights are both relatable and deeply insightful.

We discuss:

  • Why parenting decisions should be driven by what’s right for your family, not societal pressure.

  • How parenting can be a shared journey of growth for both parent and child.
  • Priya’s thoughts on raising an only child and the evolving dynamics of their relationship.

Through her warm and candid reflections, Priya inspires parents to let go of external expectations and focus on what truly matters: love, honesty, and mutual growth within the family.
