Brainz Magazine Exclusive Interview
Stoyana Natseva, DBA, is an internationally recognized mentor in systemic personal and business development, Doctor of Business Administration, economist, holder of an MBA in Psychological Counseling and Leadership, and currently completing a PhD in Neuropsychology. She is the founder of Happy Life Academy®, an institution that has certified more than 3,000 coaching professionals and offers nine internationally accredited MBA programs integrating coaching, psychology, NLP, systemic counseling, and holistic consulting. With over 100,000 students trained globally, her academy serves people from all over the world, across cultures, languages, and professional backgrounds.
Stoyana is also the Founder and President of IAPTC – the International Association of Professional Trainers and Coaches – and creator of her own transformational methodology combining neuropsychology, coaching, ancestral healing, and conscious leadership. Her approach is utilized by therapists, coaches, consultants, and psychologists who seek sustainable client results through emotional and systemic intelligence.
She is the bestselling author of 15 books—practical workbooks filled with therapeutic tools, diagnostics, meditations, and affirmations. Her titles, including The Power of the Family Line, Live in Abundance – The Energy of Money, Energy: Recharge, The Queen’s Rules, and The Art of New Beginnings, have guided countless readers to breakthroughs in self-awareness and healing.
Stoyana has graced over 20 international magazine covers—such as Forbes, Passion Vista, and Business Lady—and has received honors including “Writer of the Decade,” “Woman of the Year,” and “Global Leader in Education.” Yet it is her sacred role as a mother, especially to a neurodiverse daughter, that she names as her greatest teacher in love, leadership, and presence. At the heart of her mission is “1 Million Awakened,” a global movement to help one million people heal trauma, awaken their potential, and co-create a life of freedom, meaning, and joy.
In a world hungry for authenticity and inner alignment, few figures embody personal transformation quite like Stoyana Natseva. She is not just a teacher of healing—she is its living embodiment. Below, she speaks candidly about pain, purpose, presence, and the calling behind her life’s work.
“I don’t speak from a pedestal – I speak from the fire I’ve walked through.”
Who is Stoyana beyond the titles – what experiences have shaped who you are today?
I am someone who believes that transformation begins in the places we hide from. I’ve walked through personal losses, inner breakdowns, and moments where I questioned everything. I don’t speak from a pedestal – I speak from the fire I’ve walked through.
One of the most powerful moments that shaped me was when my daughter stopped speaking. Her autism diagnosis shattered the illusion of control and opened a new dimension of listening – not with ears, but with presence. That journey turned pain into purpose. It taught me that true transformation is not about fixing others – it’s about holding space for their unfolding.
At the core of Stoyana’s work is a radical belief: education must heal. Her academy, Happy Life Academy®, is built on this principle, transforming not just knowledge, but lives.
“What we offer is not just education – it’s liberation.”
Thousands who join her programs emerge not only with tools, but with a renewed sense of self and inner clarity. Many become coaches. Many more simply become themselves.
What was the spark that inspired you to create Happy Life Academy, and what problem are you most passionate about solving through it?
I saw too many people with degrees, diplomas, and ambition – but without joy, fulfillment, or a real sense of self. The systems around us teach us how to perform, but not how to live. Happy Life Academy was born from a radical desire to fill that gap.
What we offer is not just education – it’s liberation. We provide the tools for people to heal, reprogram, reconnect, and lead themselves consciously. The results speak for themselves: thousands of people have changed their careers, families, health, and relationships after going through our courses or reading the books. Some become coaches. Some become creators. All become themselves.
You focus on emotional intelligence, self-regulation, and balance – why are these skills so vital in today’s world?
Because we live in an emotionally dysregulated world. We’re bombarded with stimuli, demands, expectations – and nobody teaches us how to manage our inner world. That’s why we see so much burnout, anxiety, emotional numbness, and toxic disconnection.
In my view, emotional mastery is the foundation of a meaningful life. It’s the bridge between who we are and who we can become. My trainings empower people to not only understand themselves, but to lead, love, and act with integrity and inner clarity.
What kind of transformation do your clients usually go through, and what surprises them most about the process?
The transformation is often profound. Clients come in with surface-level goals, like improving their business or fixing a relationship. But the real work begins when they uncover their emotional wounds, suppressed patterns, and inherited beliefs.
What surprises them most is that they already have the answers inside – they just never learned how to access them. Through my system of self-mapping, systemic healing, and quantum tools, people reconnect with their voice, their truth, and their purpose.
Some of my most remarkable cases include clients who reversed chronic illness, ended toxic cycles, found love after years of pain, or completely shifted careers after decades in survival mode. The tools work because they’re holistic – addressing mind, body, energy, soul, and story.
Beyond the methodologies and certifications lies a woman who values depth over display. For Stoyana, the greatest rewards are not found in media accolades—but in human healing.
What has been your greatest personal lesson as a founder – something that shifted your view on life or business?
That impact matters more than impressions. Likes, views, and awards mean nothing if the work doesn’t truly change lives.
My greatest joy isn’t in the magazines – it’s in the emails from mothers who healed their inner child, fathers who reconciled with their sons, and women who stepped into their power after years of silence. That’s what drives me – real transformation.
If you could share one message with women around the world right now, what would it be?
Dear Woman, your softness is your power. Your depth is not a flaw. You don’t have to harden to be strong. You came here to create, to heal, to awaken, to lead. Don’t trade your truth for approval. Don’t shrink to fit broken systems. Your body, your voice, your wisdom – all of it is sacred. Be who you are – and watch the world transform.
Finally, what does a “happy life” mean to you personally?
A happy life is not about perfection. It’s about presence. It’s about knowing who you are, living your values, and surrounding yourself with people who reflect and support your truth. It means starting each day with gratitude, leading with love, and ending with peace. It’s about choosing alignment over achievement, wholeness over image.
For me, a happy life is also about service. It’s knowing that the work I do lifts others. That my words matter. That my children see love in action. That’s what happiness means to me – a life that feels like home.
Stoyana Natseva is more than a mentor—she is a mirror for the soul. Through her groundbreaking work in coaching, neuropsychology, and conscious leadership, she helps people across the globe return to themselves. Whether guiding a CEO through emotional regulation or a mother through ancestral healing, Stoyana brings the same unwavering message: the real revolution is within.
In a world filled with noise, her voice cuts through with rare clarity: “You don’t have to harden to be strong.” And perhaps that’s the heart of her mission—reminding us that awakening isn’t a destination. It’s a homecoming.
