From Broken to Breakthroughs, Healing from Abuse and Toxic Relationships with Petia Kolibova, Founder of Be Strong Minded EP071


I was sexually abused from age 11 through 21 years old. Wow! I’ve never written that publically until now.

The only two reasons I’m even able to share my painful story with you is because #1 I’ve done the deep healing work necessary to process the extreme trauma and damaged self-worth. #2 I believe that I survived that abuse in order to be a shining glimmer of hope and guidance for other humans who are still sitting in the deep gut-wrenching shame.

You see the Universe has a beautiful way of connecting you with the right people and the right messages, as even the crap people and situations you encounter are there to teach you and help you grow.

The beautiful and powerful soul I have on the podcast today came into my life via Instagram, and we share a common bond only abuse survivors can understand. This conversation may be triggering for some of you, and if it does please reach out to a therapist or one of us, you are no longer alone.

Petia Kolibova is a passionate coach who helps corporate women who have been pushed down and been playing it small due to toxic relationships or unhealed childhood trauma, to create a life that is true to them and their soul purpose.
Her mission is to help women who are on the path to healing from past wounds, move through their limiting beliefs and internal blocks so they can finally do what they want to do, what feels good to them, serve other women in a powerful way online.

If she is not interviewing on her podcast Be Strong Minded, working out, or reading, you will find her in nature disconnecting from the world, connecting to herself.

Ep 787 Why Your Quantum Jump Isn’t Making You Next Level Money Yet

You feel the shift. You see the signs. You know something is changing… but your income hasn’t caught up.

If you’ve been deep in manifestation, personal growth, and mindset work but still aren’t making more money or seeing results in your business, this episode will show you exactly why.

There’s a gap between feeling a quantum jump internally and actually translating that into income, visibility, and business growth. Most people stay stuck here—consuming content, recognizing patterns, and doing the inner work—without ever turning it into something that makes them money online.

In this episode, Tiffany breaks down what quantum jumping really means in practical terms, why manifestation alone doesn’t create financial results, and how fear of being seen, nervous system responses, and lack of execution block your next level. You’ll also learn how to turn your personal growth, skills, and lived experience into a personal brand that generates income and creates real momentum in your business.

Ep 786 Why You Go All In on Your Business… Then Disappear (And How to Stop this Exhausting Cycle)

If you feel like you go all in on your business, build momentum, start seeing things work… and then suddenly fall off, lose consistency, or disappear altogether, this episode breaks down exactly why.

This is not about discipline, motivation, or “getting it together.” What you are experiencing is a predictable behavioral and neurological pattern that most entrepreneurs misdiagnose.

Inside this episode, you will learn what is actually happening in your brain and nervous system the moment you start gaining traction, why visibility and success can trigger resistance, and how this creates a cycle of inconsistency, self doubt, and lost income.

This episode blends neuroscience, psychology, and real world business strategy so you can stop repeating the pattern and start building consistent momentum that leads to results.
