I love deep conversations with my guests and this episode with Kristin is yet another one. Kristin is privileged enough to be to raised in a country that is open to equality and has female leaders as role models. She is now paying it forward by spreading her wisdom around the world to inspire people to be open to change and equality.

I must say she is one determined woman with or without her crutches! :)
