Back to School 2020-21

August 12, 2020 By: Mehroocomment

Unbelievable but true! Our summer holiday 2020 is officially over as kids are back to school today. Usually for me the last week of summer would be the busiest – washing the school backpacks or buying new ones, organising stationery, buying new uniform, shoes and socks included. Finally on D-day getting kids ready, packing their… {Read More}

Life in the time of Corona – a Mum’s perspective

February 13, 2020 By: Mehroo2 Comments

This is one title that I didn’t have to break my head over as it flowed out naturally when I started writing. “Corona” – Unless you happen to live in a surreal world, meditating peacefully in a hut on the Himalayas, blissfully unaware of the turmoil that the world is going through, you would know… {Read More}

After-school activities – Finding the right balance

August 3, 2015 By: Mehroo4 Comments

“Finally!” I sighed and put my pen down. It had taken me three full weeks to research, plan and finalise the activities for my children to do this summer. It sounds easy but isn’t so. I had to find a perfect combination of their interests, abilities, their needs and the classes offered. Take into consideration… {Read More}

Back from camp!

October 11, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

He is back! 4 days and 3 nights away from home at the school camp. It felt quite different and strange not to have him around. For me the second night was the worst of all as I kept thinking about him, about how he would be faring. So today I had gone to school… {Read More}

Top 10 lunch box items for kids

September 10, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

Now that the long summer break is officially over and all schools have resumed with their new term, mums are finally getting some ME time over long coffee morning sessions. As quickly as the conversation starts with “How was your summer?” it invariably changes track to school, new term, new teachers and the stress of… {Read More}

All set for BIG school now!

August 22, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

I called him “Dolly” in his ‘toddler-hood’ days as I believed that God had gifted this walkie-talkie, rolly-polly doll just for me to play! I loved doing everything with him, watching him giggle while he played a prank, trying to catch him when he ran around the house in circles creating havoc everywhere, he was… {Read More}

Just a week more to go

June 24, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

Can’t believe it’s the last week of school. Can’t believe the mad rush every morning, noon and night is about to end or rather pause for the next 7 weeks. I can feel the tempo slowing down already. After-school activities are ending, some already have. It’s the week of saying goodbyes to friends, teachers and to… {Read More}

All good things come to an end – Graduation day!

June 22, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

Its over! After all these weeks of waiting, practising lines and hearing snippets of what’s in store, Graduation Day has come and gone. A big word for a 5-year old and yet it seems apt that he had one. After all it is a big move from kindergarten to Primary! It helps to prepare the… {Read More}

Happy Mother’s Day

May 11, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

Yesterday I was invited to my younger son’s school for their Mother Day’s celebrations – ‘Mother’s Day Carnival’ as the invite card said. Judging by the previous year’s celebrations I knew they would be doing something special for us and I was quite looking forward to it. But I had absolutely no clue about what… {Read More}

Short stories written by my son

November 25, 2012 By: Mehroocomment

Given below are two short narratives written by my elder son who is 8 years old. Unlike our Indian education system, school books are not sent back home everyday so I happened to read these in his English draft book during our recent parent-teachers meet. My Samsung Galaxy quickly helped me capture these stories before… {Read More}

Coaching? What? Why? When? I am often asked these Coaching? What? Why? When? 
I am often asked these questions by well-meaning family and friends as they learn about this new phase in my life. It prompted me to rewind time and write about this journey.

👉Coaching: Let’s start at the very beginning.... 

🖋Capturing the moments and memories of this beautiful new phase in my life.

End-January 2020: With corona virus spreading across Hong Kong and number of cases rising, schools were asked to shut down. We were in Mumbai over Chinese New Year and what had been a short 5-day trip to the city for a family wedding turned out to be a month-long extension as we postponed our flights intending to “stay safe” in Mumbai.

February 2020: While I was I happy that we were relatively safe and I could enjoy a longer holiday, the working bug in me started biting within a week. Business was slow through the previous months of protests in Hong Kong and had now come to a grinding halt. My mind started racing. What next, what can I do to keep my business going? In retrospect the actual question to ask was “What can I do to keep myself going?”

March 2020: After some trials and errors on new ideas for my current business, I realized that this was not the solution I was looking for. After starting my career in corporate sales and marketing, followed a fulfilling role as a stay-at-home mom to my boys and the last few years of being a “mom-preneur” running an exciting clothing and events business, I felt that I needed something different – something that I love and something that is sustainable over a period of time. I started researching on the internet, looking for an answer. My searches were quite random and pretty general. ‘Flexible job from home, rewarding job for women, inspiring jobs, etc.’ I am not sure how or when but along with the other answers that came up, what struck my attention and curiosity was the word ‘Coaching.’
