An award-winning author, entrepreneur and happiness coach.
A NALSAR Hyderabad graduate, Runjhun was trained to be a lawyer. However, the black letter of the law did not appeal to her creative and spiritual instincts. Instead, she chose to set out on an eclectic journey driven by her love for writing and spiritual instincts. Over the years, she has donned multiple hats including that of a start-up junkie, a brand consultant, a content expert, a dancer and a traveller. Her journey has taken her all over India and her struggles along with her unconventional choices have enriched her with experiences that range from mystical encounters nestled in the deep Himalayas to the challenges of the fast-paced, hyper-competitive world of the urban metros.

Runjhun was brought up in a family with deep spiritual leanings and liberal values. Both her parents were feminists long before the term became fashionable. They rejected dogma and encouraged curiosity and critical thinking that became a cornerstone of Runjhun’s value system and creative vision. She lost her father at an early age. But despite the relatively short period, she spent with him, his influence and inspiration pervade her life and work, both as an author and a speaker.
Her childhood experiences with life and death along with her parents’ teaching and influence honed her spiritual instincts to an extent where the first piece of writing that she ever published was a spiritual essay that appeared in the prestigious Speaking Tree column of the Times of India. She went on to write multiple articles for the column and one of her pieces was also chosen to be a part of the Best of Speaking Tree collection alongside the writings of several reputed spiritual thinkers.

Runjhun has been writing for over 12 years now and considers writing as her one steady anchor in a life full of unpredictable choices. She has been widely published by both national and international publications including The Huffington Post, the Chicken Soup for the Soul and popular digital outlets like Arre and Thought Catalog. She writes regularly on culture, practical spirituality, Sufi philosophy and good life lessons on her blog on Medium which has garnered followers from all over the world.
In 2018, one of Runjhun’s short story was awarded the prestigious DWL International Short Story Prize. Her debut, ‘Nirvana in a Corporate Suit’, a book on happiness that blends life lessons with delightful humour, was released in 2019 and garnered widespread praise from readers and media alike.
Her next book, titled ‘Quit Your Monday’, is a self-help book designed to help people navigate the changing patterns in the post COVID world and is due for release later this year.
As a happiness coach, Runjhun conducts experiential programs and sessions for corporates and academic institutions that merge ancient spiritual ideas with modern principles of emotional intelligence. More recently, Runjhun has started putting out weekly inspirational videos on life and happiness which have generated tremendous response across social media platforms.
