Karina Hollekim is an accomplished keynote speaker, performance consultant, and former professional athlete known for her remarkable journey of resilience and determination. As the first woman in the world to perform a ski-BASE jump, she has pushed the boundaries of extreme sports. Karina's life took a dramatic turn when she suffered a near-fatal skydiving accident, resulting in 25 fractures in her legs and leaving her in a wheelchair with the grim prognosis of never walking again.
Despite the challenges, Karina underwent 20 surgeries and demonstrated an extraordinary will to recover, ultimately relearning to walk and returning to skiing. Her story is not just one of survival but of thriving against the odds, making her an inspiring figure for audiences of all sizes. Her autobiography, "The Wonderful Feeling of Fear," has gained international recognition, and her TEDx talk has captivated thousands, earning her a standing ovation.
Karina's expertise extends beyond her personal experiences; she is a certified coach with a background in Neuro Linguistic Programming and Active Commitment Therapy. She has worked with a diverse range of clients, from elite athletes to top business executives, helping them unlock their potential and navigate their own challenges. Her coaching philosophy centres on the belief that success is a by-product of well-being, a principle she embodies in her own life.
Through her engaging presentations, Karina shares her journey of self-discovery and the importance of pursuing one's dreams, regardless of the obstacles that may be encountered. Her authenticity and indomitable spirit resonate deeply with audiences, inspiring them to dream again and take action towards their aspirations. Karina Hollekim's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit
