Working and parenting together are equivalent to 2 jobs with 16 hours shift each, at least for one of them. Parents often feel guilty for not spending enough time with their kids, over compensate with gifts, but are not able to build a strong connect with their children. In this episode, our host Geetika Mrig speaks with Sriram S, an Urban Professional and the author of the book HAPPINESS HABITS: THE URBAN PROFESSIONAL'S GUIDE TO GOOD LIVING. Sriram shares his experiences of parenting his 2 daughters and shares some handy tips for parents to parent guiltfree and build a stronger bond with their children and with themselves as well. 

Parenting is a journey of constant self-introspection and while the triggers our kids press can be overwhelming, if used correctly, parents can learn to grow as individuals and let their children be their teachers. Listen to the episode to understand how Sriram has used his parenting journey to grow into a role model for his kids. 

During the formative years of the child, they only have exposure to their parents to learn how to deal with the world and learn ways to conduct themselves. These formative years are crucial in the establishment of beliefs that become a part of the child's personality. As a conscious parent, when we make small aware changes in our own behavior and projection of beliefs, we allow our children to form their own set of beliefs and habits that serve them well. In this episode, listen to the host Geetika Mrig talk about how many of our parents' beliefs have governed our thoughts throughout our lives and while parents are always well meaning, the same shoe does not fit all! 

In those quick moments of verbal aggression when anger is higher than the Eiffel Tower and disappointment and shame is what the mood in the house, explore with the host, Geetika Mrig, how you can change the mood to make the conversation more constructive. As you choose to take these steps, witness your child feeling extremely motivated and soaring with confidence, instead of feeling weak and ashamed of himself. A hint: It all starts with you!
