Howdy, lovely soul. Welcome in.
This space is all "about me"...
Self-love Mode: ON 😉🖤
But what do I say about myself?
Hmm... let's see...
About Nirupa
"Nirupa" Uma Ramachandran wanted to be an author; her parents wanted her to be a musician. And so, she became a writer and a classically trained music enthusiast. 🤷🏻♀️
Along the way, between her incurable addiction to learning and a full-time career, she became a programmer, corporate leader, graphic designer, certified life coach... jack-of-all, master of none, perhaps?! 🤔
Well, whatever... but at her core, she is just a soul in love with the Divine.
Her whirlwind of a life has taken her on quite a ride—from the bustle of corporate and family life, with all its twists and turns, to the quietude of inner peace.
Now flowing gracefully through life, her work is her sanctuary: a space to share her insights, imagination, and, of course... whatever the hungry learner in her continues to gobble up. 🙃
Life Story
For years, I climbed the corporate ladder,
from near New York to Kansas
to sunny ol’ California —
my days reduced to calendars,
meetings, and glaring screens.
More than a decade passed,
from support center desks
to the Director's chair—
until one fine day,
I walked away from the bustle.
I became a caregiver
when my family needed me most,
but domesticity alone wasn't enough —
leading me inward for answers
under the guidance of a sage.
Somewhere between family life
and years of spiritual practice,
my mind grew quieter —
peace arrived gradually,
and the Divine no longer felt distant.
Along the way, writing returned
as naturally as breathing;
words flowed with ease —
from early days of blogging,
and then into songs and more.
What comes next, I cannot say.
I no longer chase anything.
I just keep walking —
trusting the Divine completely
and flowing on like a river.
