LevelUp Podcast by Kristin Assaad

In this episode, I open up about what came after success — the stillness, the healing, and the freedom that followed forgiveness. After years of building, achieving, and leading, I moved to Dubai and found myself in silence. That silence became my teacher. It forced me to face everything I had avoided while chasing success — the wounds, the patterns, the truth. This episode is about what happens when you stop running and start healing. About learning that peace isn’t something you find — it’s something you create through awareness, forgiveness, and alignment. ⸻ ✨ In this episode, I share: •⁠ ⁠The inner transformation that began when the noise stopped •⁠ ⁠The lessons I learned through forgiving both my parents •⁠ ⁠How healing shaped the way I lead, build, and live today •⁠ ⁠Why alignment — not ambition — is the key to real success ⸻ 🎙 Hosted by Kristin Assaad — Danish business lawyer, founder of LegalUp, Startup Dubai, Level Up Podcast & Program, and FounderUp Network.

In this first episode of the Level Up Podcast, I open up about where it all began — my real story. The one behind the titles, the businesses, and the success. From growing up in foster care and facing instability at a young age, to building multiple companies, leading communities, and creating a life on my own terms — this episode is about turning pain into purpose and chaos into clarity. I share how my childhood shaped my drive, how forgiveness became my turning point, and why building a business is never just about strategy — it’s about healing, self-awareness, and ownership. If you’ve ever felt like your past was too heavy to build from — this one’s for you. ⸻ ✨ Listen to hear: •⁠ ⁠How I went from survival mode to building a mission-driven life •⁠ ⁠What “Leveling Up” truly means beyond success •⁠ ⁠Why inner work is the foundation of every founder’s journey ⸻ 🎙 Hosted by Kristin Assaad — Danish business lawyer, founder of LegalUp, Startup Dubai, LevelUp Podcast & Program, and FounderUp Network.
