Katya Libin is the founder of KL & Co, the Co-founder and board member of HeyMama, a private online community of entrepreneurial and working moms. Building on a background in partnerships and tech, Libin conceived of HeyMama based on the need for support and community she felt in her own life as a working mother. As a voice for the experiences, challenges, and needs of entrepreneurial women, Libin has been published in TODAY.com, SheKnows, and Thrive Global, and has been featured in Woman’s Day, Parents, Forbes, Inc., and more.
Recently, she was named an AdWeek Trailblazer, one of the Center for Women & Wealth’s 20 Most Inspiring Women to Watch Out For and as a Forbes Next 1000 recipient. Her biggest role is that of mom to her daughter, in whom she tries to instill the relentless work ethic and unflappable belief that anything is possible that she got from her own parents, who immigrated with her to the US from St. Petersburg when she was three (3).

Katya Libin highlights another dimension of the evolution: curiosity. She explains that parenting taught her the value of asking questions instead of assuming answers, a mindset that directly influences how she builds her company. By staying open to feedback and remaining deeply curious about user needs, she is able to create experiences that move beyond simple satisfaction and into a sense of belonging. As Libin put it, empathy allows her to design for how customers want to feel, not just what they want to receive

Community Building is The Skill Every Leader Needs. Gone are the days that you build it and they will come, in are the times where people want you to lead them where to go. Today's world is more isolated than ever before, and as leaders think about how to develop and grow, community building should be on the must list, not nice to have. The hunter may be able to get one target, but the gatherer brings many together around shared values, mission and connection. This talk will leave every level of your company or community feeling inspired to be a community builder, because it is not just a skill but a privilege.
THE NEED FOR COMMUNITY
We've been sold an ad for being a founder that is highly retouched. The myth of the quick exit, glamorous front pages of Inc Magazine, first class global travel and a company that loves and respect you is both unrealistic and riddled with complexity. The founder trap is not just a future vision, but a day to day state of mind that traps founders into feelings of inadequacy, competition, fear and obsession. This keynote will break down myths, establish a radically new mindset on how to build, and help inspire founders from being on the wheel to building their own game.
THE FOUNDER TRAP, AND HOW TO AVOID IT
For centuries, women have been taught to mistrust their intuition and question their gut. Even now women will admit they have trusted their minds over their intuition, often to be led down business and personal paths that are derailing, disruptive and disheartening. So how does an energetically intuitive women listen to her gut? How can you lean into your knowing as a women to guide you to the right partnerships in business and life that align with your values? This interactive talk and/or workshop will help you lean into your instincts, cut out the noise and make bolder decisions.

My Vision For A Day In The Life of Conscious Entrepreneur
Imagine this, you wake up in a home that feels like home, surrounded by people you absolutely love, to go out and create work that makes impact, helps people, solves real problems and does so with generosity of spirit. You lead with infinite energy, from a place of fullness, not competition, and your team is inspired to innovate from their own creativity. You can afford a team because your company is highly profitable, ethical and sustainable in it's business practices. See you make things or services people really want, you charge appropriately for them, make them with care and intention, and people can't get enough of them. You make every customer or client feel seen and heard, and you make time to listen. In the middle of the day you take a beautiful lunch with your love, whoever that may be, or a friend who energizes you. You eat well, slowly, and maintain presence because you understand that what matters most is the person in front of you and the next breath you take. You continue your day with authenticity to yourself, and when you feel, you do so without shame or judgement. You take the lessons where they come, you meet people where they are and you are a constant student of life. You travel freely, spend ample time with your family, get support when asked and are able to lean into your zone of genius. You live honestly, lovingly, and with purpose. Partnerships and people magnetize to you with ease, and when it's time for you to speak and decide you know what to say and how to do it. If you don't, you gently accept wherever you are and grow. The world is working for you, and you with it. You smile often, love hard, and give big. Nothing and everything is perfect. You're here.
