From Global Dream to Heartbreak to Dream Life: Kristina Karlsson on Rebuilding After Success

<p>Smilies, something big is coming… Pass Around the Smile is so much more than a podcast, it&#39;s a whole world. Be the first to step inside <a href="https://passaroundthesmile.com/pages/subscribe">⁠https://passaroundthesmile.com/pages/subscribe⁠</a></p><p><br></p><p>Kristina Karlsson is the founder of global brand kikki.K and now the founder of Dream Life, where she inspires millions around the world to dream big and take action. After experiencing both incredible success and heartbreaking challenges, she now shares her journey to help others create a life aligned with their purpose and dreams.</p><p>Kristina was one of my live guests at my Sydney show, and the conversation we had on that stage stayed with me long after it ended. I knew I wanted to bring her back and share her with the whole world of Smilies, because her story deserves so much more room than one live moment allows.</p><p>In this episode, we go right back to the beginning, to the moment Kristina first wrote her dream down on paper, and what that imagined life actually looked like before any of it was real. We talk about what it felt like to watch that dream grow into kikki.K, a brand that touched millions of people globally, and whether living inside it matched what she&#39;d once pictured, or surprised her in ways she wasn&#39;t expecting.</p><p>We don&#39;t shy away from the harder parts either. Kristina opens up about the moment things started to shift behind the scenes, and the heartbreak of eventually parting ways with the brand she built from nothing. It&#39;s a conversation about identity as much as it is about business. Who am I without this? is a question so many of us fear asking, and Kristina walks us through what she rediscovered, and what she found for the very first time, once the title and the brand were no longer hers to hold.</p><p>Now, with Dream Life, Kristina is back in the version of success that actually feels like her, and this conversation is a gentle reminder that falling apart isn&#39;t the end of the dream. Whether your dream has crumbled or hasn&#39;t even started yet, this one is for you.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Kristina’s Links Below! </strong></p><p><a href="https://www.thedreamlifestore.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">View The Dream Life Store Here!</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/kristinadreamlife/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">View Kristina’s Instagram Here! </a></p><p><a href="https://www.thedream
