In this episode of The Purpose Studio, we dive into a powerful conversation with Vanya-Sofia Lazarova, a leadership coach who works with high-growth tech CEOs, VC partners, and founders at companies backed by firms like General Catalyst, Harlem Capital, and Goldman Sachs. But her work goes far beyond traditional executive coaching.
Vanya blends systemic constellations, somatic healing, breathwork, and spiritual practice with leadership development—supporting founders in building not just successful companies, but more integrated and conscious lives.
We explore questions like:
🌱 Why do so many high-achieving leaders still feel unfulfilled or unsettled?
🌱 How do we return to the body and cultivate self-contact, and why is that so essential for authentic leadership?
🌱 How do somatic intelligence and inner healing reshape how we lead teams, make decisions, and hold power?
We also explore Vanya’s personal story and how her own healing journey with mentors has shaped the way she supports others today.
Her work weaves together integrated leadership, therapeutic modalities, relational dynamics, and the unfolding of life itself in service of a more profound and deeper connection to self.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that inner transformation is not separate from impact. It is the foundation of it. If you’re curious about leading from a place of presence, purpose, and full-spectrum intelligence of the mind, body, and soul, then this episode is for you!
