Feel more like YOU, less like an imposter.

Professional coaching for leaders, teams, and new managers who want to stop second-guessing themselves and start leading confidently and authentically.

Too many business leaders try to behave in ways they think their role demands, rather than authentically being themselves based on their values.
— Belle Linda Halpern and Kathy Lubar, Leadership Presence

Hi! I’m Anne, and I’ve been there. ^^

It’s exhausting. Because you’re playing by someone else’s rules, not your own.

And it’s also normal, especially in times of transition when things are messy and you’re just trying to figure out which way is up.

The fact is, your already hard challenges get even harder when you try to tackle them in a way that’s not aligned with who you really are — when you do them the way you think you should, or the way others expect you to, but that hard-to-describe feeling in your gut signals something’s “off”.

And you can collect all the advice in the world from people who have faced similar challenges, but really, no one knows what’s best for you because no one else is you.

I’m not here to give you advice or tell you how you should act.

As your coach, I’m here to give you the permission and the safe space to discover what’s most important to you and to make choices that are in full alignment with your values — so that you can be the leader that only you are capable of being.

Because things actually get easier when you stop pretending to be someone you’re not and when you dare to make decisions in full alignment with yourself.

The benefits of my work?

You get where you’re going faster, and with more ease, presence, clarity, confidence, and FUN.

Oh, and way less second-guessing and self-judgement.

Programs

  • A powerful 1-on-1 relationship designed to help you get the results you want most and enhance the way you lead yourself and others.

    3-month and 6-month packages available.

  • Programs and coaching circles designed to support a small team or group of individuals (max 10) towards a goal, or through a present challenge or transition.

    Structure and duration will be customized based on the group and desired outcomes.

  • Customized workshops and training programs for teams, emerging leaders, and new managers designed to help them level-up their leadership skills or prepare them for a role transition.

    Workshop topics include:

    • Team vision and values

    • Team charter

    • Interpersonal communication skills

    • Effective collaboration

    • Team and individual strengths

    • Coaching skills for leaders

    • Feedback conversations

    • Time management skills

    • Goal setting & prioritization

  • Sometimes, you need a neutral, unbiased third party to facilitate a high-impact discussion. I bring tools and frameworks that foster safe and productive dialogue, decision-making, and reflection/after-action-reviews.

What can coaching do for you?

Coaching is a unique and powerful relationship designed to help you get the results you most want in your career and life — faster.

I coach curious, optimistic, hard working, self-aware, and caring leaders who find themselves facing a challenge that feels really hard or downright impossible.

Through 1-on-1 coaching, we’ll define a vision for what you want to create, put together a strategy to realize your vision, uncover the mindsets and self-limiting beliefs that hold you back, sharpen the skills you’ll need to make your vision a reality, and create more time and space for the things in your life that give you energy.

You’re in the right place if you’re experiencing any of the following…

  • You’re operating at a relentless pace and constantly “doing”; you want to BREATHE again and experience more calm.

  • You’re asking yourself “Is this really it?” when it comes to your career; you have a hunch that there’s something more out there for you.

  • You struggle with people pleasing — you often “go along to get along” and sacrifice your own needs, wants, and beliefs to stay in others’ good graces.

  • You feel as though you’ve lost sight of who you really are in the midst of a toxic and/or chaotic culture; you want to re-discover who you are as a leader and confidently bring that to all that you do.

  • You have accomplished a lot in your career but aren’t showing up for your family or loved ones like you want.

  • You’ve taken on a new career opportunity and are experiencing Imposter Syndrome, or are second-guessing yourself.

  • You feel like you’re stuck in a comfort zone and want to push yourself to achieve a meaningful new goal that’ll ask you to stretch and grow in new ways.

If any of this sounds like you, I invite you on a courageous, eye-opening, and messy journey to accelerate your personal and professional growth. Expect loads of curiosity, questions that help you deepen your learning, a safe, judgement-free space, and lots of fun and playfulness along the way.

About Me

I’m Anne and I’m a marketer-turned-leadership-coach.

Marketing was my first love.

From the day I chose this career (as a wide-eyed college student), I viewed marketing first and foremost as a human-centric discipline. In it, I saw an opportunity to listen to and understand my customers, help them feel seen and heard, and connect them to experiences and products that would support whatever transformation they’re looking to make (hey, sounds a lot like coaching! ;) ). I built and led multiple marketing teams and organizations from the ground up… and in that journey I struck an insight that propelled me into the world of coaching…

If, as a leader and a marketer, you forget about the human beings behind the spreadsheets, browsers, Slack channels, and computer screens, you’re toast.

I discovered that what really lights me up is to help more leaders feel seen and heard for who they uniquely are, and to help them do things that they once thought to be impossible.

And that brings us to today.

As a coach, I am here to help you connect more deeply with yourself and what you really, really want, and to walk alongside you as you go get it. Together, we create a safe and courageous space to get to know YOU like you never have before. Together, we will imagine the future, set bold goals, challenge your existing beliefs, focus on what’s most important, and take actions that are fully aligned with who YOU uniquely are.

Because your already-hard challenges get even harder when you’re trying to be anyone else but you.

My Experience & Training

Since 2013, I’ve worked for high-growth tech companies, building and leading teams across marketing and talent development with folks from across the globe. I’m incredibly passionate about helping people from around the world work better together (especially remotely!) and I love creating space for people to learn and grow, both individually and with others.

I am a Co-Active Professional Certified Coach and have also been trained in the fundamentals of group and systems coaching by CRR Global.

I currently live near Dayton, OH with my husband, three kids, and our cat. When I’m not working, you’ll find me playing piano, exercising, hosting friends for dinner, and chauffeuring my kids to and from their activities.
