Mastermind coach and TEDx speaker Sigrun Gudjonsdottir, talks about how she dared to dream and landed her dream job with just one phone call!
Ever since she was a young girl growing up in Iceland Sigrun has always been drawn to leadership roles.

SOMBA has grown to become a multiple 7 figure business and has helped thousands of women from all over the world to start, build, and scale their businesses - all in only four years!

Sigrun is a business strategist, mastermind coach, TEDx speaker and host of The Sigrun Show podcast and Sigrun Sparks on voice-first devices. Originally from Reykjavik, Iceland, she has lived half her life outside her home country - in Germany, United Kingdom, and Switzerland including two months in the Netherlands. Since she was a young girl she’s always been drawn to leadership roles, so despite having zero business background or education she became a CEO of a software company shortly after finishing her master’s degree in architecture. 10 years and another three master’s degrees and several CEO roles later, Sigrun found herself in Switzerland with her new love but sick and unemployable. Her dream was to be location independent so she could live in Iceland, to be with her aging and sick parents, and Switzerland, where her stepsons go to school, travel the world, and take care of her own health. So in 2014, Sigrun started her online coaching business and four years later she’d built a multiple 7 figure business and has helped thousands of women from all over the world to start, build and scale their businesses to 6-7 figures. Her mission is to accelerate gender equality through female entrepreneurship.
