From Overwhelmed Mom To A Certified Parenting Coach – Neha’s story

Parenting Coach Program Feedback - Neha Aggrawal

When Neha first reached out to me, she was at a crossroads that so many mothers find themselves at.

She had been an IT professional. Then life took her to Belgium, where she discovered her passion for baking and built a home bakery business. But after moving back to India and welcoming her second child, she had to press pause on everything she loved doing.

Sound familiar?

As mothers, we wear so many hats. We shift careers. We adapt. We sacrifice. And somewhere in that beautiful, chaotic journey, we often lose ourselves.

The Turning Point: When Motherhood Feels Like You’re Losing Yourself

Neha joined my 60-day Parenting Coach Program not because she wanted to become a coach. She joined because she was struggling to handle her toddler and teenager, and she wanted to understand herself better.

But what she discovered was so much more than parenting strategies.

“My Happiness Score Was Zero”

During one of our early sessions, I asked Neha to rate her happiness. Her answer stopped me in my tracks.

“My mind was actually zero. It was all indirectly driven. Whatever I wrote about happiness, it was all driven by somebody else’s happiness. So that was zero actually.”

Her happiness depended entirely on others being happy. She had completely disappeared from her own life.

If you’re reading this and thinking, “That’s me,” I want you to know: you’re not alone.

The Journey: More Than Just a Parenting Coach Program

Over the next 60 days, something shifted for Neha. And it wasn’t just about learning how to handle tantrums or manage sibling rivalry.

Finding Herself Again

“First handling the kids, you have to first know yourself and take out time for yourself,” Neha shared during her certification day.

This simple realization changed everything. Through our sessions, she rediscovered her passion for baking. She started getting ready for the day instead of staying in pajamas. Small changes that created massive shifts.

“I’ve seen a difference when you get ready, you have more motivation to do things for that day and you feel more energetic. Everything comes along with how you start your day.”

The Power of Community

But here’s what made the real difference: Neha wasn’t alone.

She learned alongside other mothers who were breaking down in sessions, sharing their overwhelm, their struggles, their guilt.

“We saw other moms in the session telling about their problems. You connect with more moms and you see that they are also facing the same challenges. So you’re not alone in that boat. Everyone has their own struggle.”

That’s the magic of learning in a community. When you realize you’re not the only one struggling, half the burden lifts.

The Transformation: What Changed in 60 Days

By the end of the program, Neha had become a certified parenting coach. But more importantly, she had found herself again.

A New Perspective on Life

“Learning is a continuous process. It’s not like we have become mothers so we stop learning and we just focus on the kids. I think the kids will also like when their parents are independent and they are doing something, so they also feel proud about it.”

Neha realized this program wasn’t just for people who wanted coaching as a career. It was for personal transformation.

Real, Lasting Change

“It comes in our mind okay, we should do it this way. It’s not like we continue with the same process. We definitely switched our minds that okay, we should do this in a different way to handle it properly.”

The tools she learned didn’t just sit in a notebook. They became part of her daily life, her parenting, her relationship with herself.

Who Is This Program Really For?

I loved what Neha said when I asked her who should take this program:

“I think anybody can do this program for their own development and for the kids’ development. They don’t have to take it as a career. It’s more for self-grooming because you also realize where you’re lacking, what you’re missing in life. So it’s not only about kids or your family, it is actually about yourself.”

She even suggested that fathers should join too, because parenting isn’t gender-specific.

This program is for you if:

  • You’ve lost yourself in motherhood and want to find your way back
  • You want to understand your children better by first understanding yourself
  • You’re tired of derived happiness and want to create your own joy
  • You’re ready to learn, grow, and transform alongside other mothers who get it
  • You want practical tools that work in real life, not just theory

The Result: A Calm, Happy Mother Raising Connected Children

As I always say on my website: Calm Mothers Raise Confident Children and Connected Families.

Neha’s journey proves this. When she started prioritizing herself, understanding her emotions, and taking time for her own growth, everything else fell into place.

Her relationship with her toddler improved. Her teenage daughter saw a mother who was investing in herself. And Neha? She rediscovered her confidence, her passion, and her purpose.

Your Turn: What If This Could Be Your Story?

I’m opening enrollment for the next cohort of my Parenting Coach Program.

This isn’t just another parenting coach course. It’s 60 days of transformation where you’ll:

  • Discover who you are beyond being “mom”
  • Learn evidence-based tools to understand “Foundations of Child Psychology – how children think, feel, and behave”.
  • Join a community of mothers who will support you through every challenge
  • Get certified as a parenting coach (if you choose to pursue it as a career)
  • Most importantly: rediscover your happiness

Whether you’re an overwhelmed mom, a career-shifter like Neha, or someone who just knows there has to be more to life than this constant exhaustion this program is for you.

Because when you show up for yourself, half your problems are already solved.
