Episode 38: The 5 Key Areas for Building Self-Confidence, How To Pivot, and Finding Purpose and Fulfillment with Alexandra Dotcheva

Today’s conversation focuses on how to build self-confidence in 5 key areas of life, how to make successful pivots, finding purpose and fulfillment, and what a strong work ethic and self-discipline really is. I’m sitting down with Alexandra Dotcheva who moved to America from Bulgaria to complete her doctorate in music. She went on to join the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra. But after 2 years she decided to pursue a career in nursing and has been practicing since 2011. In 2014, she made another change to pursue investing. Alexandra now owns 3 real estate businesses and a holistic coaching business.

Alexandra’s passion for health, fitness, financial independence, and her experience with lack of self confidence prompted her to publish her book, It Really Is Simple: A Holistic Approach to Self-Confidence, in which she shares her path to success in an effort to motivate readers to embrace change and pursue their dreams, in spite of fear and insecurity.

I was so impressed with Alexandra’s ability to adapt to life’s challenges, and I couldn’t wait to pick her brain about how and why she was able to pivot so many times successfully. We’re diving deep into what to do when the universe forces you to make big changes and how to come out on top. Her mission to help people overcome self-imposed limitations that prevent others from realizing their goals, finding peace of mind, and acquiring prosperity, is so Mimir coded that I knew she would be an amazing guest for you guys.

She’s leaving you with tangible tips on how to build self-confidence through addressing five key aspects of life: health, spirituality, career, finances, and relationships. I’m also asking her to dig into how she established her killer work ethic, what it means to be self-disciplined today, and how to hold yourself and others accountable.

This conversation is great for any entrepreneur who’s focused on bettering themselves. We’re talking about how to level up in literally every aspect of your life, so this is not an episode you’re going to want to miss.

  1. Work ethic & self- discipline are essential for success
