Arunima is not just a name in the legal world, she’s a story of grit, grace, and growth. A first-generation lawyer, she has carved her place in the demanding corridors of law and commerce with her work in litigation, corporate transactions, and media law. Her professional path spans over a decade of legal practice, with high-value deals and headline-worthy contracts under her belt. Today, she leads commercial legal functions at a top global company and also uses her voice to educate and empower through social media.
Raised with no legal legacy to lean on, Arunima entered the legal field after overcoming school bullying and years of emotional struggle.

Later, she transitioned into corporate law where she built her niche in media, technology, and entertainment. During this time, she earned recognition for her commitment to excellence, winning several awards for her academic achievements and groundbreaking legal work.
Her journey took a new turn during the COVID-19 lockdown. While battling anxiety and panic attacks, Arunima started creating content on Instagram. What began as a therapeutic outlet evolved into a growing digital platform. She started speaking about mental health, women’s rights, law, and leadership. Her page, @trulynomadlychic, quickly gained popularity for its honest, thoughtful, and accessible take on complex issues. From law students to young professionals and animal lovers, Arunima built a loyal and engaged community that now spans tens of thousands of followers.
Today, Arunima wears many hats, legal head, educator, author, and influencer. She has authored two books and is currently working on more titles that blend legal insight with storytelling. She regularly speaks at India’s top law schools, consults on cross-border deals, and has been recognized as one of the few professionals who seamlessly balance corporate law with creative impact. Her journey is proof that law can be a tool of service and social change, if used with courage and care.
Arunima believes in turning silence into strategy, breakdowns into breakthroughs. She found her voice, and now uses it to help others find theirs.
