As a mom who's balancing the chaos of parenting with the chaos of stand-up comedy, our family podcast is a rollercoaster ride of laughs and real talk. From juggling mom guilt to chasing dreams on stage, we tackle the sticky subject of parental guilt head-on. The joy of pursing your goals, we’ve learned, may call for the occasional absence on some of your kids’ big moments, but it’s the start of their self-reliance and independence that will be reshaping our family structure.

    A grade to Zarna for showing her vulnerable side and to her entire family for standing by her instead of making her feel guilty.
  • What absolutely wonderful children these three Gargs are! Articulate, clear thinking, responsible, caring and so mature!!!
  • @Gogigons
    A Grade to Zarna for being the most loving mum and for being so open and vulnerable. It resonates with every normal mother in the world. The guilt won’t go, and don’t try and fight it. It’s ok to feel guilty because that’s love. You have raised awesome children and it’s now your time to shine! Your children are so proud of you! 💝

    Awwww....this is so so real. To see Zarna cry...was heartbroken. Between Shalabh and Zarna - they parent their kids in the best way.
  • @aartisingh7952
    In each episode we can see the mother daughter duo ferociously defending each other in their own little ways❤
  • @Greenway1234
    A+ to both parents for raising such intelligent, sensitive, responsible and really just good kids in general. I fully understand the mom guilt because I feel it all the time and I don’t think it will ever go away. Somehow once in a while we have trust that we raised our kids well enough to make responsible choices in life. They are usually more capable than we think. Mom guilt however is the price we pay for motherhood I believe and it’s here to stay. ❤

    These podcasts are a gem to watch, absolutely loved seeing your vulnerable side, Zarna Aunty! Please don’t stop making these, it is amazing to see yall navigate through life together and have such open, mature conversations.

    What a great episode! I was brought to tears when Zarna cried, I can relate 100%. My kids are 23 and 28 and I still worry about them and feel guilty when I can’t pick up their calls immediately. Being a mother we will always have this going on, for men it’s different, they did not carry these kids in their womb for 9 months and give birth to them. You are doing a wonderful job as a mother and it shows in how well balanced , smart and self aware your kids are. Thanks for your vulnerability in this episode. Love you all 💗

    My A grade goes to Zarna because she changed her views on quality family time and I think that shows she’s capable of reassessing her views and changing and being flexible. Kudos.
  • This was an exceptional family podcast…you can see the love and concern each member of this family has for each other…jokes aside, everyone was very concerned about Zarna in this episode….the love you all have created with each other is palpable….your family, in my opinion, is going to help the world bring back the family unit that is terribly missing in this world, today!..,my A grade is given without hesitation to Zarna, for showing a side of her that I knew was deep down inside her…I was always a stay at home Mom..,I can relate to her feelings so deeply and so personally…not always easy to share and discuss those deep feelings…which Zarna absolutely did in this episode!..,much love and appreciation to the entire family!!!!!…thank you all!💜
  • @joannedavis182
    Every podcast you do I think, “This is the best one yet!” Every one is wonderful and so worthwhile!! It’s so valuable to me to hear another family’s perspective and all of the very REAL and transparent conversations. Thank you for sharing and please keep these going!!
  • @svatisingh1
    A+ to Shalabh for saying happy parents raise happy kids – so true. And Zarna, I think it's wonderful that you think of your kids all the time even when you are working – to me, that sounds like love, not guilt :))
  • @iamsauras
    Good grades with Garg section made me super emotional. What a great family, wish you good luck and all the good things of this world. 👏🏼
  • Thank you so much for this podcast - I am a single working mom and I feel this guilt so often leaving my daughter - it breaks my heart - and Zarna I resonate with you when you say they are on the back of your head even when you are on stage - I completely get that - but I think all this is just worth it at the end of the day - our kids are seeing us work hard as well as try to be loving and “there for them” parents - Love to your fam - thanks for adding joy into our lives ❤
  • @user-pw1pw6ir8d
    You and the whole family are doing such a massive service to all families. Your love for each other is so evident. Don’t feel guilty. You’re doing an amazing job at everything, and you are all an inspiration to all women because you said making your own money changes how you make decisions. 1000% true, and you don’t mince words on the toll that takes on working moms. It’s an impossible juggling act that we’re all doing. Thank you for this very real conversation.
  • @mgmelgar3690
    Zarna, as a mom, it is gratifying to listen to your family discuss family life on this level. You & your family keep it real. You are an inspiration.
  • @julieparera6048
    What Zoya explained about the receptors makes complete sense to the topic. You get the hit of success and immediately a low of guilt! Don’t let your system hijack your happiness! Keep going Zarna!! You have made a great job as a mom and now as a comic.
  • @smithaday9225
    Being a mum is crucial at home. That was your season. Not that it was wrong. Each time there is a season. This is another season
  • @pajoshi70
    Very important and relatable discussion. Yes, every mom goes through the mom guilt; but families like gargs make it easy on them to deal with it. Keep it up Garg family!
