Dhana shares her experience of parenting as a single mom, the joys and pains of it, the questions, confusions, and how she dealt with them. Can a single parent look at the situation as something that can have a positive impact? What does it take to bring up the children as independent thinkers who can take their own decisions? In a regular marriage, are both parents equally responsible for rearing the children? She stresses on the importance of having an open communication channel with the children, involving them in decision making, talking about issues openly etc.

 

In the first episode of this new series, Dhana talked about her sudden transition from a happy married wife and homemaker to a single mom with two kids and nothing else in hand facing the challenge of rebuilding her family and career from scratch.

 

In the next episode - part 2 of this series, she took us through the next phase of her life in Pune where she took up a new job, and the challenges she faced there!

 

In part 3 episode, she shared her experience of rearing her children alone and dealing with her health. Dhana talked about her relationship with her children, and how she optimized her life priorities to enable herself to spend quality time with them every day. She also shared her feelings about how she has shaped her life, and how her spiritual guru guided her in that journey!

What the New Indian Woman podcast is about

 

As you may already be aware, this podcast has 2 focus areas. One, we examine the challenges faced by today's Indian woman and propose ACTIONABLE strategies in the Indian context, on a wide variety of topics - right from identifying their passion to better productivity and parenting.  Second, we meet women who chose to aspire or have a dream beyond their defined roles and facilitate sharing of what worked and what didn’t, for them. Today's episode falls in the second category.

 

And in the process, my aim is to help you, The New Indian woman, to realize your potential, chase your dreams and aspirations, utilize the wonderful opportunities available in today's world.
