‘In her own world of solitude, positivity, and wellness!’
Her best introduction is that her novels have won 31 International Book Awards; she has been applauded for her remarkable fresh writing, time and again. Priya Kumar has established herself as one of the brightest authors of our country. ZEE5 has adapted her book to the stage and Priya is herself making a directorial debut with her book ‘The Calling’, which became an international best seller.
In a freewheeling conversation with The Lifestyle Journalist Magazine, Priya talks about her writing, her directorial debut and FeminismHow did you decide to be a motivational speaker?
Often, the best things we chance upon in life are purely a product of great timing and accidental occurrences. Motivational speaking happened quite by accident. I used to teach French to my classmates, which then flourished into a full-fledged business, wherein I taught 1900 students in over 9 years. From there, I started doing workshops for college children based on my experiences with them, their parents and life that concerns a young adult. So, Motivational Speaking was a natural progression from teaching students.
What should be the source of inspiration or driving force for our young population?
I think the first source of inspiration or driving force should always be parents, followed closely by their teachers. A keen sense of respect for one’s parents takes you far in life. I don’t mean that if the parents don’t earn a good income, they will not earn the respect of their children, but the parents must exhibit and be examples of the values and principles one must follow in life to live a good and complete and happy life despite financial success or lack.
Who has inspired you the most in life and are your mentors?
