Kristina Mänd Lakhiani: Becoming Flawesome

I am so thrilled for this episode, where I interview and express
deep appreciation for a mentor who has had a profound impact on
so many lives, including mine. Kristina
Mand-Lakhiani, an international speaker, entrepreneur,
artist, philanthropist, and mother, has been an inspiration and a
guiding light for countless individuals on their journey of
personal transformation.



Kristina's journey started in a government office in Estonia, and
through determination and dedication, she achieved a level of
success typically associated with male politicians at the end of
their careers. This drive and passion eventually led her and her
then-husband Vishen to found Mindvalley, which grew from a small
meditation business in their New York apartment to a global
educational organization, impacting hundreds of thousands of
students worldwide.
What sets Kristina apart is her belief that life should not be
taken too seriously, and she infuses every aspect of her life
with joy and fun. As a teacher, mother, entrepreneur,
philanthropist, and world traveler, Kristina's zest for life
shines through in everything she does. She has developed a unique
framework called "Hacking Happiness," which teaches individuals
how to find balance, savor every moment, and make mindful daily
choices.



July 2023 marked a significant milestone for Kristina as she
released her very first book, "Becoming
Flawesome," in collaboration with Hay House Publishing.
In this powerful book, Kristina shares her personal journey of
transitioning from the pinnacle of success in the personal growth
industry to embracing vulnerability and authenticity. She bravely
reveals her conscious uncoupling from her husband and the path
she took towards being more honest with herself.
