And collaborated with leading thinkers and teachers in consciousness, relationships, human performance, and life optimization.

As an advocate for happiness within, she takes her kids on trips to the Amazon Jungle to recharge or joins groups of entrepreneurs, such as Maverick1000 on Richard Branson’s Necker Island.
In this episode, we chat about what it was like to grow up in the Soviet Union and live in a country where entrepreneurship was illegal, and how becoming a business owner happened by accident, her decision to pick up and move to New York with her then husband, start the company Mind Valley, and be part of building it into the empire it is today, how personal growth was something that was simply part of her professional life and not necessarily her personal life, and why that shifted for her in her 40’s, her perspective on how to approach growing your audience, and why she says believing in your message is essential, why turning 40 was a pivotal moment for her that led to completing her marriage, shifting her role at Mind Valley, and fully stepping into being her most authentic self, how her journey as a speaker and author has unfolded for her, and why this big life shift led her to her message of why being authentic is key to happiness, and so much more!
