In this very first episode, I take you back to the start — long before I ever thought about business, cleaning, or entrepreneurship. This is my story as an 11-year-old kid leaving Bulgaria behind and moving to London.

It wasn’t easy. Uprooting from the only home I knew, leaving behind friends, family, and everything familiar, only to land in a city that felt overwhelming, cold, and completely different. I didn’t speak the language. I didn’t understand the culture. I didn’t feel like I fit in.

I’ll share what it was really like growing up as an outsider, navigating the challenges of school, adapting to a new country, and the small moments that shaped me into who I am today. These early experiences taught me resilience, survival, and the importance of hard work — lessons I carried with me into adulthood and business.

This isn’t a polished “success story” — it’s the raw beginning. The struggles, the loneliness, the funny moments, and the culture shocks. Looking back, I can see how much these years influenced the way I think, the way I push forward, and the way I’ve built everything that came later.

If you’ve ever moved to a new country, started from zero, or felt like an outsider trying to find your place in the world — this episode is for you.

🎧 Tune in to hear:

• What life in Bulgaria was like before the move
• The culture shock of arriving in London as a kid
• My early struggles at school and learning English
• The resilience and mindset these experiences forced me to build
• Why these moments matter so much to the bigger picture of my journey

This episode sets the foundation for everything that comes after. It’s not about cleaning or business (yet) — it’s about the roots. The beginning of the story. The place where it all started.

Welcome to the journey.
