About me
I help mothers to create the life they want to live!
If this is you, you need to know that I will support you on your journey by not just facilitating discovery and clarity, but also by holding space for you, meeting you with compassion and being your accountability partner. This means, I will also challenge you where needed so you are in the best possible position to successfully achieve your goals.
My work and coaching practice revolves around deep mindset work and inner transformation that address the key elements to boosting your confidence, being successful at work and having a fulfilled family life. I believe that by gaining an understanding and creating self-awareness, we become enabled to set realistic goals for ourselves and implement healthy habits, thoughts and behaviours that will empower us to achieve a true state of happiness.
I work with you to get clarity and identify your desired outcomes, so you can reconnect with yourself and your purpose, live the life you want to live, feel balanced, content and in control, (re-)gain focus and drive your career forward while enjoying motherhood and family time.
My Background:
I was born in Germany and live in the beautiful Cotswolds. I have a husband and 2 children. I am a cat person but like dogs, too ;)
I went on my own personal growth and self-discovery journey after I had my first child. Through coaching and mindset work I found myself again, I started to embrace who I am fully and began to realise that all the experience I had gathered in my work-life as an HR professional, a manager and a leader gave me a lot of the tools I needed to drive not just my own career forward, but also support others in their personal and professional development.
Following a successful career heading up the Learning & Development function at a large, global company, I have set up my own coaching practice, which is committed to helping women become strong and confident leaders while finding fulfilment in motherhood and family life.

TESTIMONIALS:
"THANK YOU for all your support and help during my journey to myself! Your help was priceless and I will always be grateful for your encouragement, time and efforts! You are an amazing coach and everyone will be lucky to have you in their life." -Svetlana N.
"I would highly recommend Anna as a Life Coach. She created a calm and safe space in which I was able to explore issues within my working life, and gently led me through a process to help to find ways of building a more holistic and fulfilling future. In every session she paid great attention to detail, listened keenly and provided feedback that consistently shed light on my situation, giving clarity and perspective. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Anna, am definitely reaping the benefits from the work we did together, and look forward to working with her again in the future." -Jules C.
"My sessions with Anna were a welcome opportunity to pause, reflect about where I am now and where I need to be and put some strategies in place around how I'm going to get there. Anna’s calm, relaxed and gentle presence set the scene, her quiet, insightful questions and confident ability to help me hold myself accountable was so refreshing. It felt like she was holding a quiet space for me to give myself permission to spend time on me. From feeling overwhelmed by having free time and choices, I now have a workable plan." -Philippa H.
"I had a few sessions with Anna over the last couple of months as I was feeling stressed and over whelmed about growing my new business and juggling family life. She was very good at helping me focus and work out what I actually wanted to do and achieve with it all. It was great to have someone to help me set goals and have targets to keep me on track. I would highly recommend her!" -Kelly B.
"Anna was so helpful to me. As a busy mum and business owner, I wouldn’t have got through without her. She provided me with such clarity and calm during a really stormy time. I would recommend her very much. She’s the resource that I didn’t realise how much I needed until after. Worth her weight in gold in all honesty." -Rosie P.
