E.141 Detaching From Outcomes & Letting Your Business Become its Own Entity with Kristina Mand-Lakhiani


Listen Later

Welcome back, Aligned Entrepreneurs! Today I had the pleasure of speaking with co-founder of MindValley, Kristina Mand-Lakhiani, for a fascinating conversation about leadership, manifestation, and building a thriving team. Kristina shared her experience growing up in the Soviet Union and how she shifted from working in politics to working for MindValley. She dove deep into the power of focusing on our zone of genius, her unique manifestation approach that she compares to the process of surfing, and how embracing each of our unique leadership styles can help us to thrive in business. Plus, she shares how she detaches from outcomes and the power of allowing our businesses to evolve as their own entities. Enjoy!
