About Me

Hi, I'm Iva, creator and host of Connected With Iva. I started this podcast from a really personal place: I was feeling disconnected, a bit lost, and craving something real. Not just surface-level chats, but conversations that go deeper—the kind that make you feel seen, understood, and a little less alone.

I’ve always been curious about people—what drives us, what hurts us, and how we find our way back to ourselves after life shakes us up. After a few big shifts in my own life, I began reconnecting with what really matters to me: purpose, healing, and genuine human connection.

I’m originally from Bulgaria and now living in London, with a background in modeling, acting, and a degree in Creative Advertising. But these days, what lights me up most is using my voice to share meaningful reflections, stories, and reminders that we all need from time to time.

Connected with Iva is a space for honest, open conversations—with inspiring guests who share their journeys, insights, and lessons about love, identity, purpose, and the messy beauty of being human. These are the kinds of talks that stay with you long after the episode ends.

I’m so glad you’re here.

This space is for you. And wherever you are right now, you’re not behind.

With love,

Iva
