Conversations with Kris Land

Today we’d like to introduce you to Kris Land.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
My story has been shaped by curiosity, creation, collapse, and rebuilding. I began building businesses at a young age and was drawn to technology, entrepreneurship, and solving complex problems. Over time, I founded and helped grow multiple high-tech companies, eventually experiencing successful exits and working in environments connected to acquisitions and an IPO. From the outside, it looked like success, and in many ways it was. But internally, I began questioning identity, purpose, and the cost of constantly striving.

Several personal and professional challenges forced me into a season of deep reflection. Relationships shifted, businesses changed, and I faced moments where I no longer recognized the version of myself I had built. What felt like loss at the time became an invitation to rebuild my life from a more honest foundation. I began exploring emotional intelligence, spirituality, leadership, and human behavior not as abstract ideas, but as survival tools.

That journey eventually led me to write The Infinity Within, a book that weaves together storytelling, personal experience, and reflection to help people move through fear and reconnect with their inner authority. Today, my work blends entrepreneurship, writing, speaking, and mentorship, helping people navigate growth, reinvention, and meaningful success without losing themselves along the way.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. Like many entrepreneurs, I experienced the highs of growth and success alongside the pressure, uncertainty, and emotional toll that often stays hidden behind the scenes. I’ve gone through business setbacks, relationship challenges, and periods where the identity I built around achievement began to fall apart. There were moments where I questioned not just my direction, but who I was without the roles and accomplishments I had attached to.

One of the hardest struggles was learning that pushing harder doesn’t always create better outcomes. I had to confront fear, burnout, and the realization that external success doesn’t automatically create internal fulfillment. Those seasons forced me to slow down, reflect, and rebuild from a place of honesty rather than expectation.

Looking back, those struggles shaped my leadership, relationships, and purpose more than any success ever could. They taught me resilience, emotional awareness, and the importance of creating a life and business that feel aligned, not just impressive from the outside.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
My work sits at the intersection of entrepreneurship, storytelling, and personal transformation. I specialize in helping people navigate fear, identity shifts, leadership challenges, and life transitions in a way that feels grounded and authentic. Much of what I share comes from lived experience, building and exiting technology companies, leading teams through growth and uncertainty, and later translating those lessons into writing, speaking, and mentorship focused on emotional intelligence and conscious leadership.

I’m probably best known for my book The Infinity Within, which explores fear and inner authority through story rather than instruction. It’s been meaningful to see readers connect with it because it reflects struggles many people carry quietly, especially high achievers who appear successful on the outside while searching for deeper clarity and purpose internally.

What I’m most proud of is not business success or recognition, but the ability to rebuild my life and work from a place that feels honest and aligned. What sets me apart is my ability to bridge practical business experience with emotional and spiritual insight, helping people translate inner growth into real-world action rather than leaving it as theory.

Any advice for finding a mentor or networking in general?
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that mentorship doesn’t always look the way people expect. Some of the most impactful mentors in my life weren’t formal mentors at all. They were people who challenged my thinking, held me accountable, or simply modeled a way of living and leading that inspired me. I’ve found that the best mentors tend to appear when you focus less on what you can gain and more on genuine curiosity and respect for their experience.

Networking has worked best for me when it’s approached as relationship building rather than opportunity hunting. Showing up consistently, listening more than talking, and being willing to offer value or support without expecting immediate return creates trust over time. I’ve also learned that mentorship is often mutual. Sometimes you learn from someone more experienced, and other times you gain insight from peers or even people you are guiding. Staying open, patient, and authentic tends to attract the right connections naturally.
