10 Traits of a Narcissist Parent
Being raised by a narcissist parent can be quite difficult. It fills one’s life with challenges and by the time one realises the reality, it ideally gets too late. For a narcissist parent, their child is a trophy. A narcissist parent seems perfect to the outside world, but is most likely to rage and scream at their child and spouse at home whenever they displease them. Check out the points in this post that can help you identify various traits of a Narcissist Parent.
Inclusivity | It’s unfair if someone else’s child suffers just because our child wasn’t aware
It’s about time that apart from imparting beautiful values into our children’s heart, we also ensure that our kids believe in inclusivity. I speak to children on a daily basis as a Life Coach for kids, and shockingly most of them aren’t even aware of what exactly is ‘ BULLYING’. Due to this they don’t even realise if they are bullying someone or they are a prey to it. Empowering our children with the knowledge about Bullying is our responsibility as Parents. Read this post to understand why it’s important to ensure that our kids respect every individual and believe in inclusivity.

Meaning of Self Love – Understand it’s soul
I always keep talking about the importance of indulging in self love on my blog and social media, but recently I realised that most of us have misunderstood this term. Let’s straight away dive into it. Self Love is to truly appreciate oneself and indulge in activities that would support one’s psychological, spiritual and physical growth. It means giving your own happiness and well-being the deserved regard and attention. It means making a conscious choice to not sacrifice your mental and physical well-being to please others. Self love is when we don’t settle for anything less than what we deserve.
Narcissist : easiest way to identity them
Narcissists have a strong belief of being superior to other people, hence they always expect some kind of special treatment and admiration. They are unable to acknowledge their own insecurities, which results in narcissistic behaviours like a sense of entitlement, an extreme need for attention and validation and superficiality. Read this post to understand how a narcissist could play with your mind and soul.
Are you scared of sharing your Vulnerability?
Some people are not completely in touch with their feelings, however for those who understand their deep feelings sharing their vulnerability could feel like venturing into a different world. They know and are aware that they could end up getting hurt at the the end of it. Even then, one could end up taking a chance and not think about it much at first. Vulnerability is connected to one of the hardest feelings to bear : i.e. SHAME. It’s normal to do anything to the best of your capability to avoid feelings like shame and anger, or being defensive and act in a compulsive or addictive behaviour.
यून तो सदियों रहा है दुश्मन दौरे जहान: हमारा, कुछ तो बात है हम में के हस्ती मिट ती नहीं हमारी।
I heard this from my grandfather ( Nanaji) years back. I didn’t know it’s depth back then, but my mother echoed this quote into my ears for years. Just saying this out loud fills me with immense power.
I support the Farmers – The biggest Protest Ever
They walked through the streets with their resolve. They are camping and cooking on roads so that all of us sleep under roof and have food to eat. They gave up their comfort because that was the price of their livelihood and future. That is the bargain they have made.
It breaks my heart to see the media misguide the viewers, which is passing on false information that has absolutely nothing to do with the farmer’s protest.
Protect your children against Sexual Abuse

Plant lover – who was once a plant Killer
From being plant killer all my life to an obsessive plant lover, the journey has been wonderful.
I have seriously come a long way.
I always loved plants but somehow was always known to kill them unknowingly.
I became helpless to an extent that I used to just admire plants from far at my childhood home. I couldn’t afford to let another plant die?.
In fact my mom even tried passing on some gardening knowledge to me, but it didn’t help either.
Unrealistic expectations – Toxic Productivity
Unrealistic expectations can break you.
During the beginning phase of lockdown did you start with plans of doing something truly meaningful and productive?
Have you been pushing yourself to self-improve and focusing on your productivity?
If this is true it’s quite possible that you are feeling overwhelmed because you are simply not able to achieve the ‘unrealistic’ expectations you may have set for yourself.
Loving myself makes me a happy Parent
Loving myself makes me a happy and content Parent. No! That doesn’t make me a selfish Parent. Hang in there and read the quote on the image below please. Now read this again! Keep reading this affirmation again and again until it hits you hard.
Imagination : Your limitation exists only in your imagination
Imagination is something that can help us be productive in life.
Honestly, I feel lack of imagination limits our adventures in life.
While growing up, Imagination helps us to explore the untold world.
Perfection : it’s ok to redraw the lines on your map
Perfection- it’s ok to redraw the lines on your map.
When you are following your roadmap to love, happiness and success, it’s ok to redraw the lines on your map.
Decision | Take charge and write your own story
Decision – Take charge and write your own story. We often obsess over making the right decision. Did you wonder why? I believe that most of us assume that the universe would reward us for one decision and punish us for the other.

Breastfeeding : The toughest choice I had to make as a second time mother
I breastfed my first child for 2 years and the second one for 1.6 years.
I was not worried about how the world would react to it, all I cared about was how I would judge myself for doing it.
Post Delivery | Do you feel like a stranger in your body?
Post delivery Truth bomb – Other mothers might feel and look better than you: I won’t lie! This truth is extremely hard to swallow. But I’m glad I got over this feeling soon enough. We must understand that everyone has their own way to deal with things. Just the way others won’t go through what you did, you wouldn’t go through what others did.
Body positive kids could be the game changer
One of the most important tasks as a parent is to model and nurture healthy self esteem in our children. It does take a lot of time and care to help a child adopt the habit of body positivity. It won’t be an easy feat, and I must warn you to be ready to be bombarded with some tough questions that have extremely tough answers.
