This Mother's Day, let us meet Anupriya Kapur, who redefined parenting choices and inspired everyone with her unconventionally planned happy life.
Motherhood is a tough journey and for a woman, it includes tons of sacrifices and adjustments that she endeavours, in order to make the world a better place for her child. However, it is equally sad to know about the hostile attitude society often has towards single-mothers, who strive to live a happy life without the social necessity of having a partner in her life. Nevertheless, these powerful ladies never stop at their quest of living life according to their own terms, without fearing social judgements. One such persona who has inspired millions of people with her life and unique choices is Anupriya Kapur.
Anupriya Kapur is a popular social media influencer. The 40-year-old lady enjoys a promising number of 258K followers on Instagram, and another boosting 13.5K on YouTube. Anupriya, who identifies herself proudly as a single mother, has mastered versatality and is an equally established blogger fitness influencer and entrepreneur.

Anupriya Kapur, who hails from Haryana, got married to the man of her dreams, Pratim, at the age of 23. Everything ran pretty smoothly between the happy couple, and Anupriya fulfilled the responsibilities of her corporate job at the American Express bank and ran her own household. Four years later, the couple got promoted as parents with the arrival of their son, Kabir. In order to raise their son beautifully, Anupriya decided to quit her job and fulfill her mommy duties.
However, motherhood came with its own challenges, and Anupriya Kapur succumbed to post-partum depression. She started to feel unhappy in her current state of life, especially after quitting her job and fulfilling responsibilities towards her son. Moreover, it not only made Anupriya lose her sense of self worth, but unfortunately, it also took a toll on her marriage with Pratim. Well, the couple ended their marriage of ten years and got divorced amicably. Nonetheless, the duo decided to co-parent their son in the best of ways.
While the decision of divorce was certainly a tough one to make for Anupriya, nonetheless, she was happy that her son, Kabir understood her and in some ways, inspired her to start off a new chapter in her life. After her divorce, Anupriya started travelling extensively, which subsequently led her to establish herself as a blogger in 2015. Her written blog, named ‘Mom on the Run’ documented her travel in words. Moreover, Anupriya even took up fitness seriously, especially running, which added another niche to her identity as a fitness enthusiast.

Moving forth in her life, her ghostwritten blogs under the name of ‘Mom on the Run’ started to get attention from around the world, as people were intrigued by the way in which she shared a slice of her life with everyone. Thereafter, she slowly shifted into visual media, and established herself as a social media influencer. In 2019, Anupriya founded her own female hygiene and wellness brand, Laiqa.
As and when her social media presence grew, Anupriya Kapoor got roped in for a number of brand associations, for whom she collaborated. The influencer has a simple rule for collaborating with brands, and those must be items that she is willing to consume herself and have a good impact on her life. She has been the face of several digital campaigns for brands like MakeMyTrip, SBI Card, Global Desi, Airbnb and many more.
Despite having a hectic working lifestyle as a social media influencer and entrepreneur, Anupriya Kapur’s first priority has always remained the well-being of her son, Kabir. While she continues to amicably co-parent him along with her husband, Pratim, Anupriya’s motherhood journey hasn’t been quite smooth. There was a time when she dealt with the worst suicidal thoughts during post-partum, but it was her son, who became her guiding light. In a world which is quick to criticise a single mother for her choices, Anupriya Kapur has continued to destigmatise the prejudice against it.
