Hi, I’m Riddhi Deorah. I tried many thing before Karma played her role and helped me find a clear mission.
I am on a mission to help 100,000 parents live a happy, holistic and spiritual life. I want to thank my teachers, mentors, parents and family for constantly standing by my side and helping me work and move closer to my mission each day.
If you are authentic, honest and have a helpful attitude, people will get attracted to your energy. You will see your group growing beautifully right before you. That’s what I believe happened to me. It was just the start of my journey and from just sharing parenting experiences not too long ago, I now build parenting courses on mindful parenting, active parenting, hero method of communicating with your child, easy stress management, phonics and so many other topics.
I am grateful for each one of you who is reading this. I would now like to share a little about my journey so far.
I was born and raised in Kolkata. I lived in a joint family with my grand-parents, parents and uncle’s family. I have four siblings, two elder sisters, one twin sister and a younger brother. Life was simple and carefree.
As a kid I was very inclined towards spirituality and mythology. I spent a lot of time listening to saints in a ashram that was right opposite our house. I am still very strongly grounded in spirituality. I attended a convent school called La- Martiniere For Girls.
I miss the assemblies and hymns that we sang every morning. My tryst with economics began when I, as a child, started accompanying my father to his work-place. I followed up on my interest by taking it up at the school level and subsequently majoring in it at college.
Having finished my bachelor’s in economics from St. Xavier’s College, Kolkata, I decided to step out for my master’s.
I really wished to step out of my comfort zone and explore the world outside. I applied to the London School of Economics, UK, and the University of Cambridge, UK, and was fortunate enough to be selected by both.
I had already spent 21 years living a protected life with my parents.
This was one of my happiest days, not because the best universities had accepted me, but because I was finally going to step out of Kolkata.
My time abroad wasn’t as easy as I had anticipated. The University of Cambridge is no cakewalk. We were given assignments on the very first day.
Everybody in my class was so smart. I felt like a fish out of water. I was never a topper, but I was always a good student back in India. However, in Cambridge, I was completely lost.
It took me 3 months of hard work and many sleepless nights before I started to feel a little comfortable. There were times when I just wanted to take the first flight back to Kolkata.
I am glad I didn’t. I made such amazing friends, definitely discovered a lot about myself, and also graduated with a master’s degree in economics.
My parents had sent me to the UK with the condition that I would return to India once I got my degree. It was time for me to return to my house in Kolkata after 2.5 years in the UK.
I was both excited and unsure. Excited to finally live with my family and eat home-cooked food, and unsure about what would I do next. I had spent so much money on my education, and it was time for me to recover all that I had spent. Immediately after returning to India, I started looking for opportunities in the job sector.
However, one fine day I decided I will not apply for a job. When I returned to India in 2013, the e-commerce sector in India was growing at an exponential rate. I decided to take advantage of this opportunity and started selling casual knitwear products for men, women, and children through marketplace platforms like Flipkart, Amazon, Jabong, Myntra, etc.
The business picked up well and I had a great work-life balance.
In June 2014, I found Rahul, my husband. We got married after six months and I relocated to Gurgaon. The relocation made things at work a little difficult. I tried to manage the business from Gurgaon. However, the distance from the production setup and the communication gap made execution very slow.
Hence, I had to take the hard step of resigning from the company and allowing the company to be managed by my brother.
Once again karma was kind to me. I started a label called Riddhi & Revika that makes designer apparel for women. Riddhi & Revika started in 2015 as an exclusively online brand retailing through social media and online multi-designer websites.
With the overwhelming love and support that our clients showed us the brand started to retail in more than ten multi-designer stores across India and abroad with its own flagship store in New Delhi.
March 2017 was another turning point in my life when I delivered my beautiful son, Veer. I started working from home.
I love writing and used this time to document my journey as a mother and wrote small stories about my experiences with little Veer.
After 4 years of creating content on parenting and helping mothers since 2015, in May 2020 I founded my company Easy Parenting Hub to help mothers feel confident, creative, and courageous.
I launched my own digital school with many digital products for both parents and children. Some of the topics for parents include – Easy Parenting Formula, Easy Stress Management, 101 Best Recipes for Kids, and Pregnancy Weight Management.
Digital topics for children include Audio Video Flash Cards, Phonics, Rhyming Words, Animals & Their Littles Ones, and more.
I believe that only happy and confident parents can raise happy and independent kids. Parenting is not a set of strategies that you can follow. Parenting is a beautiful relationship between the parent and the child. Parenting is a lifelong relationship that requires patience, dedication, love, and most importantly honesty.
I am here to serve you and to help you make this journey as a parent easy, happy, and enriching. I cannot do this alone. I need you to support me and put your trust in me. I want to build a beautiful tribe of mothers that love and support each other.
Let’s be in touch. You can connect with me on Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter.
I am grateful for having found my true mission in life – I am on a mission to help 100,000 mothers feel confident, creative, and courageous. However, the journey has just begun and I need you to stay with me till the end.
Mothers there is no such thing as being a perfect parent.Parenting is not about being perfect.
Parenting is about being real, honest, and vulnerable. Embrace your imperfections and accept yourself and your child just as you are.
Remember that you are the perfect parent for your child and your child needs you more than he/she needs anything else.
I want to thank my mentors, gurus, teachers, parents, friends & family and each one of you who have made the journey so far a beautiful learning curve.
I am learning and growing each day with you.
I am sure that with your support we can jointly achieve the mission of making parenting a happy, holistic, and spiritual journey.
