About the Guest
Apoorva is a mother, creative professional, and firm believer in parenting as a journey of self-discovery.

Apoorva’s reflections on balancing growth as a parent and as an individual offer valuable insights for anyone walking the parenting path.
In This Episode
Apoorva joins us to talk about the transformative power of parenting—how it challenges us, changes us, and teaches us more about ourselves than we ever imagined. From sleepless nights to joyous core memories, she reflects on her journey of raising two children while growing into her unique parenting style. We explore:
- Why parenting is a learning curve and not a predefined plan.
- The beauty of letting time take its course—why you can’t rush milestones like walking or speaking.
- How early parenthood reshapes you into a different human being.
- Raising kids to value “otherness” and appreciate diversity in people.
- Doing what’s right because it’s right—not for recognition.
- How parenting is less about managing children and more about navigating your internal growth.
Apoorva’s candid insights will resonate with parents and non-parents alike, offering wisdom about patience, resilience, and embracing life’s natural rhythms.
