KEYNOTE SESSION 3: THRIVING THROUGH CHANGE WITH KRISTINA KARLSSON

A powerful, authentic keynote on resilience and reinvention - sharing lessons from building and losing a $650M global brand, and how to embrace change and thrive with purpose and optimism.

In this deeply personal and inspiring keynote, Kristina shares her extraordinary journey - from founding and growing kikki.K into a $650 million much loved global brand, to losing it all during the pandemic, and choosing to begin again with purpose, gratitude, and a smile. Through raw honesty and hard-won wisdom, Kristina explores what it truly means to thrive through change - personally, professionally, and as a leader. She unpacks the practical mindset, habits, and human connection that enable us to navigate uncertainty, turn adversity into opportunity, and rebuild stronger than before. Audiences walk away with practical tools and renewed optimism to lead with courage, clarity, and creativity in times of transition. Uplifting, relatable, and deeply moving, this keynote shows us that while change is inevitable, how we respond defines our success.
