In the fourth episode of "In the Making," Shilpa opens up about the profound decisions she had to confront following her daughter Theia's heartbreaking passing. Initially, Shilpa and her husband shared the dream of a picture-perfect suburban life with a spacious home and a family, even purchasing a house for Theia. However, as Theia's condition deteriorated, their home transformed into a haunting reminder of their loss.
Shilpa and her husband found themselves at odds regarding their future paths. While Shilpa was drawn to raising awareness about genetic disorders and charity work, even considering a move to a different country, her husband clung to the idea of a traditional family life as a means to preserve Theia's memory. These conflicting desires strained their marriage, leading to difficult conversations about family, children, IVF, and adoption.
Eventually, Shilpa agreed to pursue IVF, grappling with the fear of betraying Theia but motivated by her concern for her husband's happiness. Despite this compromise, she continued to struggle emotionally.
A trip to India in late 2019 intensified her inner turmoil. Upon returning to the US, Shilpa reversed her decision, recognizing that her true calling lay beyond the conventional suburban life.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought further complications, prompting them to sell their house in anticipation of a separation. During this time, Shilpa sought guidance from a life coach, addressing her inner conflicts.
In December 2020, during another trip to India, Shilpa made the difficult but necessary decision to part ways with her husband. Although she lacked concrete plans for the future, she felt a sense of calm and clarity regarding this choice.
In the next and final episode, Shilpa promises to provide more details on her decision to move out and relocate to India. She invites listeners to reach out via email and expresses gratitude for their support.
