We’re kicking off a brand new series on Real Moms Talk, diving into the SonyLiv show Raat Jawaan Hai — a warm, slice-of-life web series that follows three young parents navigating modern parenthood, friendships, relationships, and the chaos of everyday life in India.
This is the first of an 8-part conversation series, where we unpack what the show stirred up for us as parents.
If you’ve ever tried to plan a simple outing only to cancel because childcare fell through, or wrestled with the guilt of craving “me time” while also missing your kids, this episode will feel like a warm, understanding hug.
In true Real Moms Talk style, this is not a show review. We’re not critiquing acting or screenplay. Instead, we’re pulling out relatable parenting moments, reflecting on them, and seeing how they mirror our real-life experiences as moms.
What we talked about:
- The invisible mental load mothers (or primary caregivers) often carry, and why even small breaks feel hard to take.
- The bittersweet dance between craving “me time” and battling mom guilt.
- Finding your “village” and building mom friendships that align with your parenting values.
- Why it’s so hard to trust others with your kids, even for a few hours.
- The challenges of explaining to your partner why you need a break too.
