Simran Khosla: As a person who lived her adolescent life faced with depression, peer pressure, body image issues and the constant mocking by her schoolmates, I always tried to do whatever was humanly possible for me to “Fit In” and be a part of what my peers deemed “cool” or “acceptable”. Tried my hands on everything just to be able to prove the world how I was a significant part of it in the minds of the insignificant ones. A CA Finalist and a CFA Level II Candidate who finally got the epiphany that Managing Finances and Tallying Balance Sheets wasn’t her cup of tea, I ventured into the space of Fitness and Health Consultancy by literally just walking into gym as a way to vent out my anger, depression and solitude caused by stagnated work and studies. Since then, the only time I have looked back is to gauge at the progress I have made on that ‘Butt’ and specifically on the brand ‘Butt Like an Apricot™’ that I’ve been working to grow into a Household name in a country where diet still means “eating salads” and “working out” at the gym is still just considered for bulky men. I, along with a team of young, motivated and fitness oriented individuals am looking to take BLAP™ to greater heights and aim to make a shift in the mindset of people that still have their inhibitions regarding “Diets”; although, for us “It isn’t just a Diet, It’s a Lifestyle!”. We’ve had a great run for the past 4 years since BLAP™ incorporated and are proud to say that with over 3000 clients on board from all over the world and thousands of Kgs of fat removed from the face of this Earth, it’s time to #Unburdentheearth and propel ourselves to a newer, higher and more meaningful way of living.
