14. Kristine Segrist on Canva’s Social Media Magic

This week, Lauren Douglass sits down with Kristine Segrist, Global Head of Consumer Marketing at Canva, to chat about leadership, creativity, and how to build teams that aren’t afraid to take big risks. But beyond the strategy and marketing genius, Kristine opens up about the myth of balance—how being a leader and a mother means learning to lean into one area at a time and accepting that there will always be some compromises.

We also dive into the Enneagram, a personality framework that Kristine and Lauren both use to understand themselves and their teams better. Plus, Kristine gives us a peek behind the curtain at Canva’s innovative social media strategy and how they connect with their community in a fun, authentic way.

This conversation isn’t just for marketers—whether you're in leadership, parenting, or personal growth, Kristine's insights will inspire you to lead with authenticity, embrace your strengths, and accept the ebbs and flows of life.
