So much of who we are as individuals is stripped and then enriched by parenthood. A singular purpose with transcending universality.
For most mothers, so many silences deserve to be held together and vocalised in safe spaces free of judgment.
The Mommy Mixtape is a compilation of mums’ voices still figuring things out. No advice, no sermons, just mothers bearing witness to each other’s journeys and taking solace from stories that we all can relate to in some measure. Two psychologist moms and a stay-at-home mum come together to put forth alternative narratives on being a mum.
The podcast is an attempt to initiate conversations around motherhood and maternal mental health by presenting perspectives from mums who are winging it and winning.

Episode 11 - The Mommy Mix Tape With Pooja Pande & Swaati Chattopadhyay
Motherhood is best described as a roller coaster ride through social, personal, and emotional highs and lows. From the ecstasy of holding your baby for the first time to the depths of despair that come with the baby blues.
Within the Indian context, we have layers of imagined social propriety and cultural narratives that define the visceral reality of motherhood but rarely invoke a deeper understanding.
On the episode today we have Pooja Pande Author of Momspeak - the funny bittersweet story of motherhood in India. Also joining us is Swati Chattopadhyay, a writer, dancer, and entrepreneur who contributed her own life-affirming experiences to the book.
