Journey Of Small Town Girl Anupama From Bihar
A small town in Bihar, India and a middle-class family background but extreme belief in hard work and determination is how Anupma Singh defines her roots. When she cleared class 10th, girls choosing to either become a doctor or a teacher. However, she decided to become an engineer like her dad. The town where she used to live was not safe for a girl to go for any engineering coaching without family escort. Since her father was not posted in town, she did not have any one to escort her. But ambitious that she was and always being a topper in her schools, sheer will power and with her parent’s belief in her, she cleared IIT JEE without any coaching and got into in IIT Kanpur. Anupma says, “Your success is a mind game. Once you see your success in your mind and believe on it, after that you have to just work to show the world the result.”
She has stellar corporate experience of 10+ year in IT and management. After her first baby, and demanding role in her career, she started debating whom she is justifying, her career or her baby? And that was the time she decided to have a balanced and happy life without compromising either her career or her baby. And that’s the way Anupma’s entrepreneur life began. Anupma used to keep wondering why people around her are in so much stress, tension, no clarity of future, uncertainty in their life. She started doing research on people and their mind. What she found was that this problem is more in youth of our country.
1 student suicide every hour – India has one of the world’s highest suicide rates for youth aged 15-29 years. Stress, unfulfilled aspirations, inability to cope with societal pressures are the key reasons.
82% students show high stress a week before exams. Anxiety, fear of consequences, peer pressure. 40% India is less than 20 years age.
65% Youth in age group 22-25 years age show signs of depression & sleep deprived. Main reasons: Lower income (55%), competition (24%), lower performance (21%), societal expectations.
1 Crore teens need active intervention for mental depression.
95% Startups close within 3 years. 20%+ are youth entrepreneurs in 18-24 year age.
The aspirational youth do not have access to high quality, simple and affordable tools to understand their life goals, discover their true potential and find path of success. Ambitious youth is stressed due to unfulfilled aspirations in their career & profession, entrepreneurship and life. They are unable to manage uncertainties, chaos and stress of daily life.These numbers disturbed her a lot and along with one of her friends, Sudip Bhattacharya she started thinking
