Random Cool People I Know with, Suparna Kapoor

Join us as Suparna shares her incredible experience of hiking to Everest Base Camp earlier this year (2024), learning to hold fear, how Lord Shiva influenced her experience, and how her psychic awareness amplified on the mountain.

Suparna is a personal trainer and specialist in pre and post-natal fitness, dedicated to empowering women on their fitness journeys. Her passion for fitness began at 18 while living in India, where she wanted to get healthier and lose weight. This path led her to become a certified Reebok Step Aerobics instructor, and shortly after, a certified personal trainer. For over eight years, she worked as a freelance trainer, helping men and women from all walks of life achieve their fitness goals.

However, her true transformation came during her second pregnancy, when she faced unexpected challenges during and after childbirth. This experience set her on a journey of self-discovery, reshaping her understanding of what it means to be fit and healthy. Now in her mid-40s and a mother of two, she draws from her personal experiences to help guide women through their own unique processes, focusing on strength, balance, and well-being at every stage of life.
