A memoir and guide to conscious parenting and self-discovery.
What if parenting was not just about raising children—but about being raised by them?
Raised By My Children is a deeply honest blend of memoir and conscious parenting, rooted in lived experience rather than theory. In this reflective and compassionate book, Dr. Ritu Gupta, paediatrician and parent coach, shares how her journey as a mother became a journey back to herself.
Through her sons—their courage, sensitivity, struggles, and strength—she began to recognise her own fears, conditioning, and unhealed patterns, and discovered a new way of parenting grounded in awareness, trust, and connection.
This is not just one woman’s story. It is the story of countless parents who love deeply yet feel overwhelmed, guilty, or disconnected despite their best intentions.
Tender, wise, and transformative, Raised By My Children, invites parents to break generational patterns, build emotional resilience, and rebuild connection
—at any age.
