In this episode, I share something I’ve never shared publicly before — the full story of how I rebuilt my life, work, and identity from the inside out.For years, I was successful on paper but disconnected on the inside. It wasn’t one moment that changed everything, but a series of inner shifts — an awakening, a remembering, an alignment — that changed the entire direction of my life.In this deeply personal solo episode, I walk you through the five stages of transformation I lived through — the same stages I now teach in my work:The 5 Stages of Energetic Expansion1️⃣ Awakening — the moment life forces you to pause and look within 2️⃣ Allowing — letting yourself imagine a different path 3️⃣ Remembering — removing the noise to return to your essence 4️⃣ Alignment — collapsing timelines as things finally click 5️⃣ Completeness — integrating, grounding, and owning your identityThis story includes:Leaving old identities behindRebuilding my work around intuition, creativity, somatics, and energyWhy my podcast became the catalystHow mentors, retreats, and pure instinct shaped my pathThe moment I realised I wasn’t building a project — I was building an entire ecosystemHow Substack, community, writing, somatics, and leadership all convergedThis is not a magic formula, but a deep, lived-in experience — and I’m sharing it so you can recognise your own turning points too.If you’re in a transition, a reinvention, or an “in-between” chapter… let my story remind you that nothing is ever wasted and every chapter prepares you for what’s next.Listen now and subscribe for more episodes on intuition, business, creativity & leadership.Join my community, Space In:Between, on Substack: https://businessaspoetry.substack.com/Connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/business_as_poetry/Send me a message on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/hristina-vaceva-cfa-4245901aFind me on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd_f9gjXSKiB5D7cCy7LatQ
