This is the story of how a mom found her passion and turned it into something truly impactful.
She got married at the age of 23, coming from a simple, middle-class family. Her father, who was financially well-established, had dreams of marrying her into an affluent family. But she had always believed in listening to her heart. She fell in love with a man she met during her school days—a man not rich in wealth but rich in love, values, and kindness. Despite initial objections from her family, who had a different vision for her future, she followed her heart and married him in 2015.
After their wedding, she and her husband moved to Delhi, and their lives began to unfold as they had always dreamed. She was happy, pursuing a fulfilling career, managing finances, and thriving in her personal and professional life. She never once felt the pressure of missing anything.

The New Beginning
A couple of years into their marriage, her husband got a great job with a handsome salary. But it required them to move to a smaller city, and she had to leave her job. In the new city, there weren’t many career opportunities, and most people around her encouraged her to stay home instead of working for a lesser salary.
Though their responsibilities were fewer with just the two of them, she decided to take a break from her career and focus on her home life. Little did she know, this would mark the beginning of a whole new journey.
The Journey Begins
One day, her brother offered her an opportunity to write for his website. At first, she hesitated— she never considered herself a writer. But her brother, knowing her well, believed in her. He had seen how well she communicated through her emails at work, often receiving praise for her writing skills. Encouraged by his faith in her, she decided to give it a try.

And so, her journey into the world of writing began. She wrote her first blog post, unsure of what to expect, and was overwhelmed by the positive feedback. Friends, family, and even her brother’s business contacts praised her work. This boost in confidence ignited something within her. It was the spark she needed. Writing became a passion, one that she never knew she had.
As she continued writing blogs for various sites, she found herself enjoying the process more and more. She was able to earn money doing something she loved, without the constraints of a traditional 9-to-6 job. It was the perfect blend of creativity and flexibility, and she was thrilled.
A Beautiful News and a Calm Blessing
A year later, something even more beautiful happened—she found out she was pregnant. The news was met with excitement, and although she was physically fit, she found herself feeling a little lazy when it came to any writing work. She decided to take a break and focus on herself and the baby growing inside her. She thoroughly enjoyed her pregnancy, not stressing over unnecessary physical work or mental exertion. Instead, she embraced the calm and peaceful months, allowing herself the space to relax and savor this special time without feeling the pressure to do anything beyond what she truly enjoyed.
Even during her pregnancy, the spark of how a mom found her passion continued to glow quietly in the background.
Nine months flew by, and in June 2019, she welcomed her precious child. Life shifted again as they moved back to Delhi, and she took time to care for her newborn. But what followed was something she had never expected—peace and tranquility. Her son was so calm that even the neighbors didn’t know they had a baby until two months later! It was as if the universe had blessed her with the most serene child.
Unlike many new mothers who struggle with postpartum depression, she was fortunate. Her son rarely cried, and she didn’t experience the emotional rollercoaster that often accompanies new motherhood. The calmness of her child created a peaceful environment in their home, making it easier for her to adjust to the new role of being a mother. She often found herself reflecting on how lucky she was. Many new mothers faced sleepless nights and emotional exhaustion, but she had been blessed with a child who made motherhood feel serene and joyful.
Her husband’s support played a key role, and together they navigated the changes in their life with grace. She felt like the universe was rewarding her for the patience and love she had given to her family.

Reigniting Her Passion: How a Mom Found Her Passion Again
After the first few months of motherhood, as she was settling into her new routine & with some free time on her hands, she started reading blogs again. That’s when she realized—writing was calling her back.
She began writing once more, expressing herself through words. Whether it was about her son, her husband, or her journey, writing felt like a natural extension of herself. It didn’t take long for her to recognize that this was her true passion.
Writing became the cornerstone of how a mom found her passion and rediscovered herself after motherhood.
It felt as though the words flowed effortlessly from her mind to the screen. Writing wasn’t just a job or a hobby for her; it was an expression of her soul, a way to connect with herself and the world around her. She realized that it’s never too late to start pursuing what makes you happy. The most important thing is to take that first step, no matter when it happens. Success may take time, but the journey is worth it.
And so, at the age of 28, she found her passion for writing, and she hasn’t looked back since.
The Birth of Momyhood
She wrote two or three blogs about her journey as a new mom and submitted them to other parenting websites. But then a thought struck her: “Why should I write for someone else when I can create my own platform?”
That’s when the idea for Momyhood was born.
She realized that her passion for writing, combined with her desire to help other mothers navigate the ups and downs of parenting, was something worth pursuing. But she didn’t have to do it alone. Her brother, who was into digital marketing, was always a great support system for her. She shared her idea with him, and he immediately jumped in to help her create a website and get everything set up. Thanks to his support, Momyhood came to life, and it became a space for her to share her experiences, tips, and advice with other moms.
And so, Momyhood was born—a platform that began with one mother’s journey and blossomed into a community of women supporting and learning from each other. She continued to write about the many parenting challenges she faced—whether it was her son’s milestones, balancing work and motherhood, or the lessons she learned along the way. Through it all, she found that writing not only helped her reflect on her own experiences but also allowed her to connect with other mothers who shared similar challenges. And the more she wrote, the more fulfilling her journey became.
A Lesson in Resilience and Fulfillment
This journey of how a mom found her passion started with small, courageous steps. But it was through those challenges that she discovered what truly mattered to her. She had always believed that life would go according to plan, but the reality was far different—and far more beautiful. She had embraced her passion for writing, and she was more fulfilled than ever before.
The biggest lesson she learned was that you should never give up on your dreams, no matter how old you are or how difficult the journey may seem. Even if the world doesn’t immediately recognize your talents, what matters is that you keep going. You follow your passion and enjoy the process, because success is not just about the destination but about doing what makes your heart sing.

A Note from Me in November 2024
As I re-read my blog today, my son is now 5 years and 5 months old, and I am happily married to the love of my life. Just as my dad once wanted me to marry into an affluent family, I now have everything he dreamed of for me—a life filled with love, joy, and comfort. My husband’s dedication and success have provided us with a luxurious life, but the real richness lies in the love and happiness we share as a family.
However, what truly makes me feel rich is the love, understanding, and bond we share as a family. This journey has shown me that following your heart and pursuing your passion can create a life more fulfilling than you could ever imagine. Thank you for being a part of this story—our story!
