[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

@DumbbellsnDrama @thedarkrebel @MSonal21 Omg going!!!! Just saw this and funnily dropped a comment on their page earlier today asking where they're located. My toddler and I are coming for the books.

Buying a house, doing up interiors, managing a toddler, trying to retain the spice in your marriage AND running a business all at once is the most grown up shit one can do. I'm NOT ready to adult any more. Spare me while I try to survive. 🥲

@DumbbellsnDrama Tell me tomorrow ciao ciao!

Six months in and 2023 has taught me more than what I learnt in 30+ years of existing. A year full of fun, passion, drama, love, some more drama, life lessons, highs,lows, milestones, breakdowns...Gosh, I think I'm excited for the second half of this movie.

You know you've built something special when the team you work with stands up for you when they see you under fire.
People who've worked with us for a few weeks have done this I mean how do we not feel absolutely overwhelmed with all this support :")
Love us 🧿 @shaallwe

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

@DumbbellsnDrama Nice person lol where is the nice person???

[Protima Tiwary @DumbbellsnDrama]

I'm done being calm and understanding now that nothing is holding me back. I'm in my petty and really, really angry era ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

Running a business is basically ensuring everyone else lives comfortably while you (may be) take back less in your bank account but more in your heart, mind and soul.

I've never been more grateful than now. I learn more, live more and value people more every single day.

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

We're SO HARD on ourselves. It's horrible. We don't ever see ourselves for what we are because we're so caught up in wanting to be someone else. We work diligently towards becoming a version of ourselves we have in our heads, and in the process, lose who we really are.

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

Miss those times when talking was easy, forgetting was easier, remembering was a choice... You know, when times were probably just about living in the moment? Those times. Miss them.

@DumbbellsnDrama It's funnier when Pune folks move to Goa because P & G are both so small...there's no one you don't know.

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

Here's the thing about envy: you don't choose to feel it. It happens. It happens to the best of us. Despite all our practicality and rational thinking, envy has a way of creeping up to you and consuming you fully, even if it's for the time being.

@LazyPatnaik Did you just leave @infertilemum and walk with a stranger????

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

Don't want to be laughing at this but God this is so true tha it's sad and hysterical at the same time 🥲

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

We have too many options. We're wannabe rebels who couldn't breakout from the shadows of the generation before because wE CanNoT HuRt FeEliNgS! We're too cool for the GenZ (or so we believe). And we're raising Gen Alpha that's probably going to eat us alive. But, who are we?

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

Millennials are such a confused generation. We're an educated bunch that's incessantly reading every parenting book and manual there is, yet running to the older generation for solutions. We're also a generation that's stuck somewhere in between.

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

Internet also saves the day for me pretty much every single day. Lol. I'm an Internet parent who does rely on Alexa and YouTube many times a day to get past toddler tantrums, meals and managing my own work while keeping up with my kid.

[Shalvi Mangaokar @shaallwe]

We can blame the Internet for A LOT of things. But god, i don't think I'd have found the kind of friends, colleagues, support system i have today had it not been for the Internet. These people are just top class, ace folks. Total 10000/10!

I would never hire a gym bro/Body builder as a fitness trainer:

• Hasn’t lived my corporate life
• Has (almost) never been fat
• Thinks pumping iron fixes everything
• Is most likely an Anti-Vaxxer

Sometime Empathy > Energy
