What you will get at the event
"Confidence to Change Direction: From Hesitation to Action"
✨ Clarity on what change you want in your life and the confidence to make it.
You will recognize exactly what is holding you back and why you are postponing the change you feel it is time to make. By working with real-life live cases, you will see your own patterns of thinking and behavior and will leave with a specific next step that you can implement immediately.
✨ Practical tools on how to confidently assert yourself, without fear of conflict
You will learn how to express your position clearly and confidently, set healthy boundaries and have difficult conversations without losing touch with the other person. You will receive tools on how to say "No" without feeling guilty.
✨ Confidence that you can handle change
You will leave with an inner confidence that you can make the change, even when you don’t know exactly what the outcome will look like. You will understand that confidence does not mean not having fear, but acting despite it.
✨ An inspiring conversation with Plamen Rusev about AI, change and the future
You will hear an inspiring conversation about the change that is already happening – about artificial intelligence, about human qualities that are becoming even more valuable, and about how to use change to your advantage without losing yourself.
✨ Inspiring atmosphere with an opera soprano
The special musical participation of opera soprano Ilina Mihaylova will create an atmosphere that combines emotion, beauty and inspiration. This is not just a podcast recording – it is a complete experience of confidence, change and action that you will remember long after it is over.
Who is behind this event
Vesela Mangeina
personal and business coach and author of the podcast CONFIDENCE IN 360°
Vesela Mangeina is a personal and business coach with over 1,500 individual coaching hours working with high-level managers, business owners and professionals who appear successful on the outside, but on the inside feel that they have outgrown the role they are in.
The main focus of Vesela's work is building inner confidence - the confidence to be yourself, to express your position clearly and confidently, to declare yourself without seeking approval, to set healthy boundaries without guilt, to make decisions and act without constantly doubting yourself.
Vesela is the author of the podcast "Confidence 360°", where every week she leads frank and deep conversations about the topics that really matter - hesitation, fears, boundaries, authenticity, the courage to change direction when you feel that the old path is no longer yours.
Her approach is practical, direct and focused entirely on the person. She works not with the symptoms, but with the causes. Not with short-term motivation, but with deep confidence. Not with momentary techniques, but with a lasting inner foundation that supports you in every situation - in work, in relationships, in difficult conversations, in moments of choice.
Her clients share: "After working with Vesela, I began to speak up without fear and set healthy boundaries. To say "No" without guilt. To make decisions that I have been postponing for years."

How the event "Confidence to Change Direction: From Hesitation to Action" works
Step 1: Creating the space where change is possible
We gather on October 5, 2026 at 7:00 PM at East Plaza Hotel, Sofia - a place created for life-changing events.
From the first minute, we build an atmosphere of trust and safety in which you can be completely honest with yourself - no masks, no roles, no "shoulds". Just you and the truth you feel inside.
Step 2: Working with real cases
A conversation in which Megi Dimcheva asks and Vessela Mangeina answers. During this conversation, Vessela will work live on a real situation with a volunteer from the audience who wants to overcome their hesitation, fears and lack of healthy boundaries.
While Vesela works with this person, you will be able to recognize yourself in the case, see your own patterns, gain clarity on what exactly is holding you back and what your path forward looks like.
Step 3: Conversation with Plamen Rusev – about the change that is already here
With Dr. Plamen Rusev we will talk about the Romanian that is already happening around us – artificial intelligence, the future of work, new opportunities and which human qualities are becoming even more valuable in a world that is changing at an unprecedented speed.
The focus is not on technology, but on you: how to stay confident, true to yourself and with your own direction, while everything familiar seems uncertain and the rules of the game are being rewritten.
How to use technology to your advantage without losing what makes you you – your intuition, your humanity, your ability to make decisions and to truly connect with other people.
Because confidence does not mean knowing what will happen. It means having unwavering faith in yourself that you can cope – even when you don’t know exactly how.
Step 4: Inspiration and a specific next step for you
The opera soprano in the person of Ilina Mihaylova will inspire us with a special opera performance that creates emotion, atmosphere and an opportunity to connect with yourself more deeply.
You will leave the event not just inspired, but with complete clarity about what exactly is holding you back, what you really want to change and what is the specific next step that is time to take.
📌 Who is this event for?
For successful professionals who look good on the outside – have a job, career, status and income – but on the inside feel that they are living below their potential.
For managers, business owners and professionals in high positions who feel that they have outgrown the life or role they are in, but do not know where to go from here.
For people who want change but hesitate to make it because they do not want to destroy the security they have already built.
For those who are unable to confidently state their opinions, stand up for themselves or set boundaries without fear of conflict.
📌 What will you get from this event?
You will leave with more clarity on what is holding you back, a concrete awareness of where you are compromising yourself and a clear next step towards the change you want to make.
📌 Do I need to prepare in advance?
No preparation is needed. Come as you are – with the questions, hesitations and desire for change that you carry within you. All you need is a willingness to recognize yourself in the cases we will work on and honesty with yourself. If you want, you can voluntarily sit in the "confidence chair" and work together on your real case study live in front of the audience – this is a completely safe environment and a powerful experience. But even if you choose to just listen and observe – you will leave with concrete insights, tools and a next step that you can implement immediately.
