Kristine Michie

As founder of ImpactFull and host of The PlayFull Podcast, Kristine has interviewed more than 200 changemakers to explore one core question: how do you stay imaginative and resilient while working on problems that may never fully resolve? She has analyzed those conversations for patterns in how play unlocks fresh thinking and moral imagination when traditional effort hits a wall.

Building on a lifetime of activism, journalism, philanthropy and leadership coaching, Kristine uses joy and play to activate leaders, build community, and amplify the voices of others. Her work supports social impact leaders, nonprofit CEOs, board members, and creatives who feel stuck, worn out, or trapped in patterns that have stopped working, helping them find sustainable ways to keep going.
