UNMASKED

Olga Karpman

THE SHOW ABOUT WHAT LIES BENEATH Everything can look right on the outside — the life, the roles, the success — and still, something inside shifts. Nothing is obviously wrong, yet something no longer feels true. Unmasked is a podcast by Olga Karpman — entrepreneur, creator, and co-founder of the Dream Big Podcast — exploring what happens beneath it all. After years of building, creating, and speaking with high performers and world-class thinkers, this space turns inward, toward the deeper layers of growth and truth. Each episode moves beyond achievements and into identity, relationships, inner conflict, and the moments that quietly change everything. You’ll hear a mix of conversations with entrepreneurs, creators, and thought leaders, alongside solo episodes — raw, reflective, and personal. If you feel like you’ve outgrown a version of yourself or sense that something in your life is shifting, this space will meet you there. Because what we question, avoid, or don’t yet understand is often where real change begins. Follow Unmasked: Instagram @unmaskedpod YouTube @Unmasked.OlgaKarpman

    007 | I’m Done Trying to Be Perfect | UNMASKED Vlog #1

    What happens when you stop waiting for everything to be perfect—and simply decide to begin? https://www.olgakarpman.com/007 In this very first vlog, Olga Karpman opens the door behind the polished interviews, beautiful masks, and carefully produced episodes to show you what really happens beneath the surface. UNMASKED was created from a deeply personal realization: sometimes the life that looks right on the outside no longer feels right on the inside. And when that happens, the questions become much bigger than success, career, relationships, or achievement. Who am I now? What is actually true for me? And who am I beneath the identity I've built? This is a space for those questions. A space for people going through transitions, questioning old identities, or simply feeling that there is something deeper beneath the life they're living. There will be no perfect answers here. No pretending. No polished version of life designed to make everything look fine. It is an honest conversations, real people, the masks we wear, and the stories underneath them. And this vlog is the beginning. UNMASKED is a space to look beneath the surface, reconnect with yourself, and discover what becomes possible when you stop performing who you think you're supposed to be. In this Vlog Olga Karpman features:  ✔️ What it means to start before everything is perfect ✔️ The story and deeper meaning behind UNMASKED ✔️ Identity shifts, transitions, and questioning who you are beneath the roles you play ✔️ The masks we wear—and what they can reveal about us ✔️ Why human connection and authenticity matter more than ever ✔️ Creating a space without gurus, authorities, or “perfect” answers ✔️ When Life Looks Right but Feels Wrong ✔️ The journey of building UNMASKED from the ground up ✔️ Learning to trust yourself and reconnect with what lies beneath the surface  Key Takeaways Start before everything is perfect.Transitions can reveal identities that no longer fit.We all wear masks, but they don’t define who we truly are.Going deeper helps us reconnect with ourselves.Human connection, authenticity, and honesty matter more than ever.The answers we need can come from learning to trust ourselves again.

    006: Natalie Monbiot |The Woman Behind the AI — What Success Couldn't Fix | Olga Karpman | UNMASKED

    What if the story that made you successful is the very story keeping you from becoming who you're meant to be? https://www.olgakarpman.com/006 In this episode of UNMASKED, Olga Karpman sits down with AI pioneer, founder of the Virtual Human Economy, and leading voice on digital identity Natalie Monbiot for a deeply personal conversation about identity, ambition, motherhood, and the stories we carry throughout our lives. Known globally for her work shaping the future of AI and human potential, Natalie shares the deeply human journey behind her success. From navigating corporate leadership and building groundbreaking AI companies to walking away from everything in search of herself, she reflects on how transformation begins by questioning the stories we tell ourselves. Together, Olga and Natalie explore the invisible armor many high achievers wear, why slowing down can reveal who we truly are, and how embracing AI without losing our humanity may become one of the defining challenges of our generation. If you've ever wondered whether success alone is enough—or felt called to rediscover yourself beneath the expectations, titles, and achievements—this conversation offers an honest invitation to remove the armor and step into a new chapter. Throughout the conversation, they discuss: ✔️ Why the armor that creates success can eventually become your mask ✔️ The courageous decision to walk away from corporate success and reconnect with yourself ✔️ How changing your story can transform your entire life ✔️ The surprising lesson that came from Natalie's personal healing journey ✔️ Why slowing down allows you to finally see what truly matters ✔️ How AI should amplify human potential—not replace human thinking ✔️ Why children need purpose and emotional intelligence more than ever ✔️ The balance between career, motherhood, and living authentically Connect with Olga & UNMASKED 🌐 Website:https://olgakarpman.com📷 Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/unmasked.olgakarpman💼 LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/olgakarpman/📘 Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=625297652 📖 Free E-Book – The 7 Masks We WearDiscover the hidden patterns shaping your life.

    005: Marie Diamond | Why Your Darkest Night May Be the Beginning of Your Greatest Life | Olga Karpman | UNMASKED

    What if the hardest season of your life isn't happening to you—but for you?https://www.olgakarpman.com/005  In this episode of Unmasked, Olga Karpman sits down with her dear friend and world-renowned Feng Shui Master Marie Diamond for one of the most honest conversations on the podcast. Marie opens up about the defining moments that shaped her life—from being declared clinically dead at just 15 years old to facing complete kidney failure years later. Those experiences didn't break her. They awakened her to a mission that would eventually impact hundreds of millions of people around the world. This conversation goes far beyond Feng Shui. Together, Olga Karpman and Marie Diamond explore the moments every leader, entrepreneur, executive, and high achiever eventually faces—the seasons where nothing seems to make sense, where success feels empty, where identity begins to unravel, and where they're forced to ask: Who am I... really? Throughout the conversation, they discuss:  ✨ Why the Dark Night of the Soul isn't the end—but the beginning of your next chapter. ✨ How life's "valleys" often become the birthplace of our greatest breakthroughs. ✨ What it means to trust something greater than fear when everything around you is falling apart. ✨ Marie's remarkable healing journey beyond conventional medicine—and the mindset that changed everything. ✨ Why your environment, your energy, and your beliefs may be shaping your future more than you realize. If you're navigating uncertainty, burnout, loss, or simply feeling called toward something bigger, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the light returns only after we've had the courage to walk through the darkness. Because every transformation begins with the willingness to remove the mask.

    004: The Dark Night of the Soul: When Everything You Built Stops Feeling True | Olga Karpman | UNMASKED

    There is a phase in your spiritual journey where you feel the loneliest — where you stop trusting your own voice, your intuition, the people around you, and it feels like everything is quietly collapsing. People call it the dark night of the soul. And almost no one explains it in a way you can actually feel.  In Episode 4 of UNMASKED, Olga Karpman goes beneath the surface of this phase — the one that doesn't arrive all at once, but slowly, like a whisper. The one where the life you built, the roles you play, the identity you wore, suddenly stop feeling true. Where going back no longer works, and there isn't a clear way forward yet. This isn't a quick-fix episode. Olga doesn't promise answers. What she offers is rarer: language for what you're feeling, the reassurance that you are not broken, and one simple practice — observe — that can carry you through the heaviest moments. If you are in this right now, or someone you love is, this episode is a place to stay. To breathe. To remember you're not alone. In this episode: Why the dark night of the soul is so often mistaken for depressionThe caterpillar and the cocoon — why you can only move forwardHow to be with grief, old wounds, and emotions that resurfaceThe ‘observe’ practice — sitting on the mountain above your own feelingsHow to ask the people you love for space without losing themA note: Olga is not a medical professional and this is not medical advice.

    002: I’m Not Who I Was Anymore | Olga Karpman | UNMASKED

    There’s a moment in life that’s hard to explain. Nothing is falling apart, everything still looks good on the outside, but something inside of you quietly shifts. https://www.olgakarpman.com/ In this episode, Olga Karpman opens up about that exact moment — the one where you realize you’re no longer who you used to be, even if your life hasn’t visibly changed. She shares her own experience of walking away from a successful business, letting go of a long-held identity, and entering a space where there were no clear answers, only a quiet inner voice that became impossible to ignore. This is not a conversation about fixing anything. It’s a space to recognize what you might already be feeling but haven’t been able to put into words. If you’ve ever felt like your life still works but no longer feels true, this episode is for you. At the end of this episode, there is a short guided process to help you pause, reconnect, and begin to hear yourself again. Take your time with it.
