Real talk about trauma, money stories, and what “success” looks like when your nervous system is still stuck in survival mode with clinical psychologist and high performance coach, Adina Petre.
Adina grew up in communist Romania, where scarcity, ration cards, and “black days” thinking shaped an entire generation’s relationship with money. Now living in the Netherlands, she shares how financial independence became less about being “extremely wealthy” and more about choice, pace, and building a life that actually fits.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
💚 Why financial independence is really about choice, not just income
💚 How scarcity and corruption can shape money beliefs for decades
💚 The hidden link between trauma and feeling “stuck” in life or business
💚 How your subconscious can run your decisions without you realising
💚 Why so many people feel “my life looks fine, but I don’t feel fine”
💚 What it means to rebuild autonomy, confidence, and calm from the inside out
Perfect for you if:
💚 You feel like you are pushing for success with the handbrake on
💚 You suspect your money story is driving your decisions behind the scenes
💚 You want a more human, honest conversation about trauma and ambition
💚 You are building a business and want to understand what is really blocking your next level
