Ep. 117: Tatiana Kotova, how can building code and robots rebuild hope in war times?

In this episode of Leaders Talk, Karsten speaks with Tatiana Kotova – a certified coach, consultant, and founder of the I Will Association. Tatiana shares her moving personal journey: growing up in the Soviet Union, emigrating to Canada, and ultimately launching an initiative that now brings education tochildren across war-torn Ukraine.

What started with her grandmother knitting hats for children in orphanages has become an organization focused on empowering the next generation through digital skills. Tatiana talks about her motivations, the impact of war, the resilience of her late father, and why she remains humble and hopeful despite everything.
