THINK: Stefan Olafsson – The homeless man who became a lawyer

Welcome to a moving and inspiring lecture with Stefan Olafsson – the man who went from homelessness and addiction to becoming a lawyer. For ten years, Stefan lived on the streets, struggling with severe substance abuse and a daily life marked by crime. But after a life-changing event in Östermalm, his path took a completely new direction.

In this lecture, Stefan shares his journey toward sobriety, education, and a new life – showing that change is possible, even when everything seems hopeless. It’s an evening about courage, setbacks, and the human ability to rise again.

Stefan Olafsson is currently in the spotlight with his book Uteliggaren som blev advokat (“The homeless man who became a lawyer”). During the event, there will be an opportunity to purchase a signed copy of the book.
