Things started off great, but in just two weeks, the situation flipped. Singer Avanti Nagral realised her mother was saying 'no' to too many gigs, trying to protect her.
A young singer hired her mother as a manager, but had to fire her in just two weeks. This is the story of singer Avanthi Nagral, whose LinkedIn post is now getting a lot of attention. She says her mother's love made it difficult to separate her professional life from her personal life.
Before she joined Harvard University, Avanti was performing music and theatre at venues across the world. As her career grew, she felt she needed someone to handle her emails, payments, logistics, and other work. At that time, her mother wasn't too busy with work and offered to help out.

'She wasn't managing my career, she was protecting her daughter. Those are two different jobs,' Avanti wrote. She added that she later found professionals who knew how to keep personal and professional lives separate. However, she also pointed out that not all artists can easily find such help. Many are forced to rely on their parents, partners, or friends. Avanti ended her post by asking her followers, 'How did you find your first team member?'
