Hi, I’m Kristyna, the author of BORN TO BE AN ENTREPRENEUR.
Over the last decade, my role as an entrepreneur coach has taken me around the world, where I’ve had the privilege of guiding executives, high achievers, and driven professionals toward realizing their personal and business ambitions.
This journey has been marked by collaborations with some outstanding organizations such as the World Bank, Microsoft, Google, New York University, and the Global Entrepreneurship Network.
My contributions and insights have found their way into leading publications like Forbes, The Next Web, Observer, or Business Insider.
Beyond the realm of coaching, I founded MAQTOOB, a unique tech platform for entrepreneurs dedicated to simplifying business app discovery. This was the first in a series of initiatives designed to cultivate a spirit of entrepreneurship on a global scale.
I’ve led an online publication for entrepreneurs on Medium for over seven years, curating content that supports the startup ecosystem, attracting a vibrant community of 35,000+ readers. This platform has allowed me to directly engage with an audience passionate about innovation and entrepreneurship, further amplifying our collective impact.
Another significant part of my journey was co-founding the School of Digital Skills, where we’ve brought over 60 educational events to entrepreneurs and students in locations as diverse as Lebanon, Morocco, Iran, Kenya, South Africa, Brazil, the USA, the UK, and the Caribbean, reaching more than 2100 future leaders.
In BORN TO BE AN ENTREPRENEUR, I’ve condensed these experiences and the knowledge I’ve gathered along the way into a guide for anyone ready to start their entrepreneurial journey.
This book is a compilation of real-world insights and practical advice, serving as a roadmap for navigating the complexities of entrepreneurship.
If you’re looking for guidance backed by years of real, in-the-trenches experience, you’ve landed exactly where you need to be.

Every word you read, every image you see, even the look and feel of the book - it's all the result of a group of talented women pouring their hearts into their work. By having an all-female team, I wanted to highlight the power and capability of women in entrepreneurship, and I'm proud to say that the spirit of this intention shines through in the final product.
