[Stories of Success From Empower Alumni]...

JESSICA DEROSE
About this episode

The Empower Stories of Success is a multi-part series featuring real conversations with Empower graduates who have built and scaled their businesses. In each episode, they share their journeys—the wins, the lessons, and the challenges they’ve overcome along the way.

In Part 3, Jess sits down with Carolina Wikstrom—a dynamic human design expert and mother of two. Carolina shares her incredible journey from working in corporate finance to becoming a pivotal figure in the world of human design. The conversation takes us from the bustling fitness influencer days when Jess and Carolina first met in New York City, to Carolina's transformative move to London, where motherhood and a passion for human design shifted her professional path. 

Now, Carolina empowers entrepreneurs by helping them unlock their unique gifts through human design. Discover how Carolina navigated the challenges of launching a business while pregnant, the power of human design as a tool for personal and professional growth, and the importance of being open to the gifts and insights of those around us. 

Whether you're new to human design or a seasoned pro, this episode is filled with valuable insights. 

As always, cheers to your evolution!
