Make it stand out.
Hi, I’m Anna
I’m a Life Coach, published author, and artist with past experiences as an Engineer at Facebook, Yelp, and Redfin. I have experience hosting a diverse range of workshops on mental health, some with over 300 attendees and others with an intimate group of 10. It is my deepest passion to merge the communication gap between the logical, analytical world and the creative, intuitive world.
Growing up with my own share of anxiety, health problems, and imposter syndrome fears, I understand what it’s like to feel completely disempowered. In my Software Engineering and Product Management roles I was an extreme perfectionist and over-achiever, sacrificing my mental/physical wellbeing thinking I was doing it for the good of the company. Ultimately I hit a breaking point where I was physically and emotionally burnt-out. Surprisingly, this breaking point actually broke me open - opening me to take back control over my life.
I followed curiosity and passion into the mind/body/spirit connection, which led me coaching and holistic remedies. I dove deep into NLP, mindset, nutrition, exercise, and how all parts interact. It shocked me how many empowering strategies and tools exist that we were never taught in primary education. While adults are equipped with tools on how to earn money and be productive, they aren’t equipped with equivalent tools to manage stress and actually live a balanced, happy life. Happiness in the end is what everyone wants, but society has it all backwards.
Now having found work in this area that deeply fulfills me and having seen the impact it has made in my clients’ lives as well as my own, it is my mission to continue to be a part of the solution of this mental health crisis. In my life I want to orient myself towards the vision I want to see come into fruition - a world that is united, loving, diverse and truly magical.
Build it.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
What people are saying.
“I have realized how much I’ve neglected myself and will put a plan in place to take time for myself in a planned way moving forward.”
“Takeaway: That I’m not alone and I do need to make self-care a priority.”
“I learned that I am in control and can take the steps necessary to take care of myself. That I have people around me who care and will help me along the way!"”
“My biggest takeaway is how I can contact HR and for what reasons, because I didn’t know this support was available.”
“Anna was wonderful at explaining the tools. She kept the group engaged and comfortable throughout the whole presentation. The use of step by step examples on how to apply each technique made it possible for me to process current imposter syndrome thoughts right then and there.”
