Founder

Harleen Kahlon

Harleen launched Bolde in 2014 to inspire honest conversations about modern love, family dynamics, parenting, aging, personal growth and human behavior. She’s also the founder of Sweetn, Loopvana (coming soon), and Unmatched (coming soon)—a growing portfolio of digital platforms focused on the same thing: helping people navigate the complexities of modern life.

A former attorney and graduate of UC Berkeley and Yale Law School, Harleen is a psychology enthusiast who blends analytical thinking with a deep curiosity about human behavior. Over the past 20 years, she’s extensively studied mindset science, cognitive behavioral therapy, and performance coaching, exploring how people can stop internalizing setbacks and start making more empowered choices. Harleen also enjoys speaking about her own personal experiences as a single woman, a partner, a parent, and a friend, which she does regularly at events around NYC.
