Recently I attended #VoiceofMoms live series with @SoftSens – Organic Baby clothing. Its their 11th live within the same series & the hashtag, and the conversations they are having with many of mom influencers on Instagram Platform. The Episode I am covering from the series is posted on their IGTV and is around 50 minutes.
The live was hosted on Softsens Live channel with Katerina Folkman famous on Instagram handle @oneupbaby who introduces herself as a Life Coach, and also loves to answer about the babies suggestions and questions. she is a loving mom to Baby Shannon.
The Live was about an hour, discussing various topics around how Katerina is enjoying her personal life and what is her take on the various incidents happening around.
There were many interesting topics covered during the session, here is a little snippet of the conversation.
“Being a Homeschooled kid herself, but raised by a Tiger Mom who will put her to many classes and things (from ball room dancing to riding lessons) she focuses on different aspect while raising her daughter. Her idea for her kid is to let her be more exploring and independent with Creativity and Decision making in place.
She is following Unschooling, where she is not resuming the character of a teacher for Shannon being at home but taking her through life experience being an engaged parent. Describing the difference between Unschooling and Home Schooling, she elaborated further that latter is all about focusing on having more adult interaction with the kid and letting them have the exposure to different professionals. She further claimed the concept to be unconventional but working for many individuals getting admission in colleges like Harvard and upenn.
Talking more about @Oneupbaby ‘s recent dream move “From Cities to the Mountains” she cleared that it was not a sudden move but been boiling for some time and her office folks (her job as a Data-Scientist) were very supporting about the move due to increased effectiveness and productivity.”
The conversation goes about talking about the Traditional and Non-traditional ways of living your life and the Dreams – Sacrifices you do in your major youth.
Author’s take:
Apart from the few network glitches, the conversation was very easy going and a delight to hear. Though the game round ‘Taboo’ was not a success because of the technical issues.
I have been personally following Katerina for sometime and attended a lot of her sessions, and its always good listening her speak. The idea behind the Series #SoftSens is hosting, is to hold meaningful conversation with Mothers and bring out the idea on how they are enjoying their motherhood and dealing with this Pandemic, and the particular episode justify the theme.
There are almost 10 more sessions all recorded and posted on their IGTV, a particular episode with Dr Puneet Anand, posted on 21st June (Father’s day) held my attention too. He has answered a lot many questions around babies health and common QnA every parents have. Being a pediatrician and a new parent himself the session is very informative and engaging. I look forward to hear other recorded sessions and upcoming episodes and maybe bring it to you guys in my next ‘Social Media Press’ blogs.
