Kristina is a serial entrepreneur, speaker, mother, philanthropist, everyday-life philosopher, and a woman on her own journey of spiritual growth.
She is also the co-founder of Mindvalley, a global school that delivers transformational education for all ages, as well as Mindvalley Russian, its Russian-speaking vertical.
Kristina has been engaged in the personal transformation industry for over 15 years, collaborating and playing with leading thinkers and teachers in consciousness, relationships, human performance, parenting, and life optimization. As a speaker, she has shared the stage with household names such as Lisa Nichols, Shefali Tsabary, Marisa Peer, and Jay Shetty.
She started her career working for the government of Estonia, where she was born and raised, before joining the nonprofit sector and worked for organisations such as the United Nations, Oxfam, and AIESEC.
In 2009, she launched Mindvalley Russian, taking Mindvalley’s best authors and teachings to the Russian-speaking market.
Throughout her journey, she’s been fortunate to acquire the tools and systems to help make authenticity the heart of her life. Whether it’s starting her own businesses, being active in causes she’s passionate about, going to the places she loves, embracing the virtuous and the “wicked” of her femininity, singing her two kids to sleep, playing the harp or immersing herself in classical literature — Kristina set on taking in and relishing every moment as it comes.
And in Live By Your Own Rules, Kristina invites people to do the same, in their own way.
