Show Highlights:

• Navigating Cultural Life Transitions: Shruti opens up about immigrating to the U.S. from India at age 22, and the unique identity shifts that occur when you realize you have lived abroad longer than in your home country.
• The Heartbreak of Pregnancy Loss: Shruti bravely shares her journey of losing three babies, detailing a heartbreaking nine-week miscarriage and the tragic delivery of her twin boys, Yash and Raj, at 23 weeks on her oldest daughter's seventh birthday.
• The Pressure to "Move On": We discuss how society and loved ones often urge grieving mothers to hide their pain. Shruti describes how she suppressed her grief for years, running to the bathroom to cry between corporate IT meetings before putting a brave face back on.
• A Beautiful Birthday Legacy: A deeply moving story about how Shruti began secretly honoring her twin boys by etching "Y" and "R" onto her daughter's birthday cake every year, and the beautiful way her daughter eventually took over this tradition.
• The Power of Therapy: Shruti reveals the major turning point she experienced in 2022 when she finally sought professional help, realizing that the goal of grief isn't to "move on," but rather to move forward while continuing to honor your babies.
• The 3 ACE Framework: Now a transformation coach, Shruti breaks down her simple but highly effective framework for dealing with grief and life transitions: Acknowledge, Accept, and Address.
• Upgrading Your Emotional Health: Shruti explains why we are so quick to "upgrade" our physical fitness or financial status, but rarely invest in upgrading our mental and emotional well-being.
• Self-Care Isn't Selfish: We discuss the heavy burden of "mom guilt" and why setting boundaries—like taking a few minutes to finish your coffee or having a "no cooking" day—is vital for your family's overall well-being.
