Great awareness is the foundation for change and personal development. All individuals view the world through filters based on our unique experiences, values, learnings and beliefs. Knowing yourself and understanding your filters is the first step to mastery and high performance. In order to be on top of your game, you must be completely aware of what is happening around you and within you at every moment.
CONFIDENCE
Confidence is essential to reaching your potential as a leader and instead of waiting for something to happen to bring you confidence, you can create it. The most common belief and method to gain confidence is by doing and succeeding, and experience can absolutely breed confidence. A more powerful and sustainable approach though is that confidence comes from within and our power and performance is connected to our mindset, attitude and thoughts.
FEARLESSNESS
Being fearless means that you fully trust yourself and others around you, you are transparent, honest and vulnerable and you are not afraid to take calculated risks or to make mistakes. Learning and growing is a part of your core. When you are fearless you are bold and believe in your ability just as much as you believe in others. You have a vision and a mission, which is aligned with your values, to create a better world, using collaboration, co-creation and innovation to do this. There is no such thing as failure in the world of fearlessness!
Anna has been amazing in helping me navigate through a difficult period at work. I was bored, unhappy and very frustrated with my managers. I could not see a way forward without quitting my job or reducing my work hours. Through some carefully supported exploration into my past career experiences Anna helped me to see a way through my frustrations, understand my blockers and identify changes that I could make that would help me. Anna’s insightfulness, patience and support meant that I gained the confidence to ask for what I wanted and steer my job into a more challenging and rewarding role. I’m now much happier at work and no longer want to quit, I was even recently given a promotion! Without Anna’s support and guidance I would not have achieved this!

My strongest moment with Anna was a day when I was stressed in my head, heart and soul. I had spent the whole day preparing for a big task, and much of my brain power and energy was used telling myself I was going to fail and feeding myself imaginary truths about how bad I was. I was so up in the air mentally and emotionally that I did not know if I could do the session. But we did, and I shared exactly how I felt. 38 minutes into the conversation (I remember the time so well!) Anna says something that makes the whole concrete block fall from my shoulders. I start smiling uninhibited, tears fill my eyes, I feel relieved – yes, excited and instead of dreading tomorrow I look forward to it. I have carried this moment with me ever since. I think about how our brains and thoughts can affect our mood and it is so easy to get stuck. Sometimes you just need someone who guides you, in a competent and energising way, asks the right questions and listens, to be able to get “unstuck” and move forward. For me, it was Anna.

I have been fortunate to work with Anna as my coach over the period of 3 months. During the process we focused on multiple facets of my life – personal development, relationships, ageing & wellbeing, career, spirituality, and enjoyment. Along my coaching journey, Anna helped me connect with my true self, understand my values and beliefs and how they impact what I do and how I feel, and how I can put more attention and intention into living a fulfilled life. Anna is a natural born coach, she is intuitive, curious, inquisitive, and always makes it a point to be her client’s greatest champion. Her being part of my life has been a true blessing.
