Kirsten Helgeson
Humanitarian. Feminist. Founder.
Hi, I'm Kirsten. I solve big problems in heartfelt ways for everyday women. We live in a complicated, evolving world hungry for people with vision, creativity and compassion. From hurricane zones to public health crises, board rooms to refugee camps...I jump into this tough stuff heart-first.
I'm the Founder of Just A Girl and Girl Talk Radio, organizations built to amplify the emotions, experiences and voices of women worldwide. I'm also the co-founder of WEW.WORLD, a global community for women building great things. I'm an international speaker, author and consultant with my finger on the global pulse. And while I've won lots of awards and sat on many best-of lists,
my most cherished title is auntie.
