Global actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas, a multi-talented personality known for her acting prowess, advocacy for women's rights, and philanthropy, has candidly shared her experiences of motherhood, portraying it as an emotional journey of balancing overwhelming love and the importance of amplifying women's voices.

The 41-year-old actress, who has gracefully transitioned into motherhood, opened up about the unique challenges and joys she encounters daily while raising her 21-month-old daughter, Malti Marie, with her husband, Nick Jonas.

In a recent interview with People magazine, Priyanka confessed, "I think every day, when you put them to bed, it's extremely overwhelming because every single day you worry about what you can do wrong and what mistake you might make." Her words resonate with parents worldwide, emphasizing the relentless concern for their children's well-being.

Nonetheless, Priyanka also highlighted the incredible support she receives from her family, which helps her navigate the rollercoaster of parenthood. She added, “But you have to check yourself, and I check myself with my family. I look at (my daughter's) smile, and I'm like, 'Okay, okay. I'm doing good so far'.”

She finds solace in her daughter's smile, a reassuring sign that she's on the right track. She described motherhood as "the greatest thing I've ever done, but it’s extremely scary" while acknowledging its inherent challenges.

As a prominent advocate for supporting women and women's rights, Priyanka's journey into motherhood hasn't altered her commitment to the cause. She explained, "I don't know if having my own daughter specifically has made me want to get behind amplifying women's voices. That's something that I am extremely aware of, being a woman who has the privilege of choosing my life and my career. There are so many women around the world that don't get that opportunity."

Furthermore, Priyanka revealed that motherhood has unexpectedly made her more sensitive and emotionally aware. "It's made me a tad more sensitive and fragile, I think, and it makes me nervous a little bit. I didn't expect that," she admitted. Her insights into how parenthood has altered her emotional landscape add a unique perspective to her journey as a mother.
