From Supermodel to CEO: Miranda Kerr’s Untold Story of Risk, Resilience, Reinvention and Legacy

Miranda Kerr is a globally recognized model and the founder &
CEO of KORA Organics, a skincare brand known for its commitment
to clean, certified organic products.


For Miranda, the journey to founding KORA Organics wasn’t just
about beauty — it was about healing. After her mother’s cancer
diagnosis, she began questioning everything she put in and on her
body, eventually realizing there was a gap in the market for
truly clean, certified organic skincare that actually worked.
Fueled by a personal mission and a vision for something better,
she launched KORA Organics in 2009. Today, it’s a global brand
available in over 30 countries, but Miranda’s approach remains
deeply personal: leading with intention, staying hands-on with
every product, and reminding people that real beauty begins with
how we care for ourselves from the inside out.


In this episode, Miranda shares the pivotal experiences that
shaped her — from growing up in a wellness-focused family to how
personal loss at a young age taught her resilience, gratitude,
and emotional strength. She reflects on lessons from her early
modeling career — handling rejection, building confidence, and
trusting her inner voice — and how those experiences prepared her
for entrepreneurship. Miranda takes us behind the scenes of
launching KORA in the U.S., navigating a highly competitive
market, and balancing the emotional highs and lows of building a
global brand while raising a family. She also shares how
mindfulness, presence, and self-care have been foundational to
her success — and why prioritizing inner wellbeing remains at the
core of her life and business, and so much more.
