Our guest this week is Kristina Karlsson, the entrepreneur and founder of global Swedish design and stationery business, kikki.K.

Sold in 190 countries around the world, and in its more than 100 stores, kikki-K’s beautiful notebooks and stationery represent a 20 year journey for Kristina, as well as a massive breath of fresh air for stationery lovers around the world. 

Swedish born and bred, Kristina moved to Melbourne in Australia as a young woman in her 20’s to be with her partner, now husband Paul. She knew she wanted to start her own business but didn’t know in what field; until she went shopping for stationery.

Kristina’s also recently published a book called ‘Your Dream Life Starts Here’ and her mission is to inspire 101 million people to write down their dreams and chase them. 

(You have the chance to win a free copy of Kristina’s book here but hurry entries close in a few weeks time.)  

We both loved this conversation with Kristina who’s really honest and humble about what she’s achieved and the lessons she’s learnt along the way. 

In particular you’ll hear about:

The truly quirky way Kristina learnt to perfect her business English early on

Why she’s grateful she launched kikki.K without knowing much about business

How she credits becoming a Mother with giving her more balance

And why Kristina genuinely believes anyone can achieve what she has.

And stay listening at the end of our conversation for your chance to win a free copy of Kristina’s book. 

Enjoy our conversation with the inspiring and entertaining Kristina Karlsson.
