Motherhood is often spoken of as the greatest gift—a blessing, even sacred.
Mothers are placed on pedestals, expected to embody a kind of quiet, unwavering strength… almost godly in their patience, their sacrifice, their love.

But we don’t always speak about what it asks of them.

The expectations. The invisible labor. The identities they grow into—and sometimes lose along the way.

Our guests, Aradhana and Rachana share their stories, as they reflect on the legacies they received from their mothers, what they value and what they will pass on to their children.
