Hi, I'm Ana-MariA

In my last year in college, I conducted comprehensive research (approved by The Human Subjects in Seattle, Wa) on the relationship between our body language and our internal self-talk and cultural upbringing.

This is when my transformation began and laid the foundation of my research-based and results-driven unique coaching methodology.

My name is Ana-Maria…The founder of Luna Voda Coaching (literally, Moon Water)

I was born and raised in Bulgaria.

I started dancing when I was five, which created my lifetime passion for creative self-expression and movement and later developed into a career pursuit in teaching dance-fitness, meditation, and healthy living.

Like many high-achievers who have experienced childhood trauma, I also used to struggle with a lot of issues triggered by my strained relationship with my biological dad; from body image dysmorphia to commitment issues and chronic self-doubt and self-criticism that were crippling my ability to perceive myself as worthy of love and success.

This persistent lack of self-approval (that started at age 14…) not only prevented me from feeling confident in myself, despite my academic achievements or physical attributes, but it also interfered with my physical health…leading to hormonal issues, adrenal fatigue, perpetual negative self-talk, comparison,  and a complete alienation from my body…for years!

During this dark period of my life, I felt empty; I felt unlovable, I felt fatigued, lost, hideous, and incapable of coping with my traumas….until one day, at age 22, I decided that enough is enough.

I HAD to do something…

In my last year in college, I conducted a comprehensive research (approved by The Human Subjects in Seattle, Wa) on the relationship between our body language and our internal self-talk and cultural upbringing.

I was fortunate to present my findings at the annual Research Symposium hosted by the University of Washington.

During this period (2016-2019), I previewed nearly a thousand books on movement therapy, neuroscience, personal development, and behavioral psychology.

Driven by these interests, I later got certified in health and life coaching with mastery in NLP transformational coaching and found my company Luna Voda Coaching (literally, moon water in my native language).

I chose this name because it symbolizes the nurturing element of water in a synergetic balance with the moon’s divine feminine nature.

And this is what my coaching is all about: empowering people from all genders and spiritual beliefs to transform themselves, re-connect to their innate wisdom and rebuild their confidence…by gradually transforming and improving every other area in their lives.

My life purpose is to help people going through similar issues as I was, to feel seen, supported, and encouraged – and to show them how to reclaim their power, rebuild their confidence, and create permanent changes in their self-perception.

You, too, can cultivate the confidence to create your next level of inner fulfillment and everlasting love!

If I could recover from my traumas and become the confident, driven, and successful woman I am today, I am certain that everyone can do it.

Everything I do today, I do it because I wish someone was there for me when I felt lost, self-loathing, and helpless.

I became the coach I wish I had when I was struggling….

Your past cannot control you.

You can break free! You deserve to be free!

Just ten years ago, I was on the edge of a complete breakdown.

Today, I am healthy, happy, confident and free from past addictions and negative self-talk. I was also able to overcome my commitment phobia and create space for romantic love & partnership in my personal life.

Not only did I heal from my past but I was able to transfer the skills I`d acquired in this process of personal development and soul-searching and compile them into a straightforward blueprint for transformation that I now customize for the individual goals of my clients.

The results are tangible because once you dedicate yourself to leaving the past behind, you can achieve anything you set your mind to accomplish.

Change is difficult, and this is why I am so passionate about my work. I’ve invested thousands of hours and thousands (and thousands…) of dollars into my personal development, and I’ve compiled all of my tools into an easy-to-follow program that I’ve designed to help everyone become the best version of themselves.

You do not have to struggle in silence …

You have the choice to change your life!

I am here to help…
